A grocery list, an idea that showed up uninvited, the call you have to make this afternoon. Write it the way you thought it, press enter, and a small pill lands on your home screen. [A memo widget, and nothing more] ・ No button to hunt for. Enter is the whole interface. ・ Pour out one thought after another without stopping. ・ Colors pick themselves. Nothing to choose. ・ Want to change one? Just tap the pill. [Right there on your home screen] Your notes are visible without opening the app. Wake the screen and what you have to do, what you have to buy — it’s already there. Small, medium and large widgets are all supported. [Clearing them out is just as easy] Press and hold a note and it slowly fades away. No more tapping DELETE over and over. Deleted the wrong one?
