Notavo

Everything you noted. Still there. Notavo is Italian for "I used to take notes" โ and then lose them. That ends here. Notavo is the fast notebook a modern app should be: open it and start writing. The first line becomes the title, and you organize the rest whenever you want. CAPTURE NOW, ORGANIZE LATER New notes land in Scratchpad. From there it's up to you: a tag, a colorful folder, a star for the important ones, or the Archive for what you want to keep long term. COLORFUL FOLDERS AND SUBFOLDERS Create as many folders as you like, nested inside each other, each with its own name and color. When you open a folder, its color follows you everywhere: banner, buttons and subfolder cards at a glance. Drag notes wherever you want: onto a folder, Favorites, Archive or a tag. CHECKLISTS THAT CLICK Turn any line into a checkbox. Tap to complete, the item strikes itself out, and pressing return continues the list. Perfect for groceries, chores, packing. EVERYTHING INSIDE THE NOTE Photos and freehand drawings go exactly where you want them, right in the middle of your text. Videos, PDFs and documents stay attached to the note with instant preview. And when an image is too large, Notavo asks if you want to compress it: you choose how much. REMINDERS, YOUR WAY Every note can have its own due date, and for each one you decide whether to get a notification. Changed your mind? Turn it off with a tap. YOUR MEDIA LIBRARY The Media section gathers photos, drawings and documents from all your notes in a single grid. Search by file name or note title and jump straight to the right note. ALWAYS WITH YOU Notavo is native on iPhone, iPad and Mac, with widgets for your Home Screen and Desktop. Turn on iCloud sync whenever you want: your data stays in your private iCloud, and you choose whether to sync text only or attachments too. TAGS IN YOUR COLORS Rename tags, give them custom colors, or remove them from every note at once. Notavo is built for people who write a lot and want to find everything again: quick to open, a pleasure to use, made to last. Noticing takes a second. Notavo makes it last. TRIAL AND PURCHASE Notavo is complete and free for 7 days. After that a single in-app purchase unlocks it: no subscription, no renewals. The unlock covers iPhone, iPad and Mac on the same Apple Account and can be brought back with "Restore purchase". Your notes stay yours: even after the trial ends, the unlock screen can export all of them. Anyone already using Notavo before this update keeps using it without buying anything.
