About

Banora

Features

An app that puts one handwritten style note card right on your Lock Screen. You see it every time you pick up your phone, so the things you wrote down are the things you actually remember. "It was on my list..." You wrote a list, left it in a notes app, and then forgot the list along with everything on it. Does that sound familiar? Banora keeps your note on your Lock Screen, the place you look at dozens of times a day. ■ Start Writing Right Away When you open Banora, your card is already there with the keyboard ready. There are zero taps between opening the app and typing. Everything saves automatically, so you can close the app as soon as you're done and not worry about it. ■ Tick Things Off Without Opening the App Turn your note into a checklist and check items off directly on your Lock Screen. You don't need to unlock your phone or open the app. Each checked item gets a real line drawn through it and the text is dimmed, live on the card. It works well for a shopping list, today's tasks, or anything you want to get through. ■ Sixty Papers Choose from sixty papers in twelve hues, each with five depths from light to deep. Pick the one that looks best with your wallpaper. ■ Twelve Typefaces There are eleven handwriting styles that make your note feel like you wrote it by hand, and one clean sans serif if you prefer something simple. ■ Draw With Your Finger You can draw on the card too. Underline what matters, circle something, or add a small sketch. Choose your own ink colors, and they adjust automatically so your drawing stays readable on every paper. ■ Add Photos Add up to six photos to a note. Keep a picture of the exact product you need to buy, or a photo that simply makes you smile. ■ Note History Your past notes are saved in a history, so you can look back at what you wrote anytime. ■ Your Notes Stay Private Your notes, photos, and drawings never touch our servers. By default, your notes back up to your own private iCloud, and you can turn that off in the settings. No one but you can read your notes. ■ No Account Required You can start writing right after installing. There is no registration, and you don't have to enter any personal information. Sign in with Apple is available if you want it, but it's optional. ■ Contact Website: https://banora.dev Terms of Use: https://banora.dev/terms Privacy Policy: https://banora.dev/privacy Banora is made by one developer in Germany, for everyone who writes things down and still forgets. Put your first note on your Lock Screen today.
