About

Plato

Features
Read full description

Some thoughts aren't meant to last forever. Plato is a beautifully crafted notes app inspired by ancient Greek aesthetics. Write your thoughts on digital scrolls, set a timer, and watch them vanish โ€” like words dissolving into the aether. DISAPPEARING NOTES Every note you create has an expiration timer. Choose from 5 minutes, 1 hour, 24 hours, 3 days, or 7 days. When the timer hits zero, the note is gone forever. LIVE COUNTDOWN Watch the time tick down in real time. A progress bar on each note shifts from gold to bronze to flame red as it nears its end. You'll always know how much time remains. BURN ON DEMAND Can't wait for the timer? Tap the flame icon to destroy a note instantly. Once burned, it can never be recovered. CLASSICAL DESIGN Every detail is crafted with care โ€” serif typography, parchment textures, gold accents, and daily quotes from Plato himself. Your fleeting thoughts deserve a beautiful stage. COMPLETELY OFFLINE Plato works entirely on your device. No accounts. No cloud. No internet connection required. Your notes exist in your hands and nowhere else. FREE & OPEN SOURCE Plato is completely free with no ads and no in-app purchases. The entire source code is publicly available on GitHub for anyone to inspect, modify, and contribute to.
