Keep what matters on your Lock Screen. A shopping list before you leave. A quick thought you want to remember. The countdown to a day that matters. Jotiva keeps your pinned note within easy reach with Lock Screen and Home Screen widgets. YOUR NOTE, ONE GLANCE AWAY Write a note, pin it in Jotiva, then add the widget to your Lock Screen. Choose a compact line of text or a rectangular view for your note, checklist or countdown. The in-app guide walks you through setup. CHECK IT OFF FROM YOUR LOCK SCREEN Turn errands, shopping and daily tasks into checklists. Tick off visible items directly from interactive widgets or a Live Activity, and see the changes reflected in the app. A BIGGER NOTE CARD Use a Live Activity to see your pinned note or checklist in a larger Lock Screen card. On supported iPhones, Jotiva also works with Dynamic Island. iOS controls how long Live Activities remain visible. MAKE YOUR HOME SCREEN USEFUL Add a Home Screen widget for your pinned note, checklist or countdown. Bring your note's paper design and handwriting into your everyday view. CAPTURE MORE THAN TEXT Write quick notes, make lists, add photos or draw by hand. Choose paper styles, colors, fonts and card layouts. Organize your library with folders, tags and favorites, then search for what you need. REMEMBER THE DAYS THAT MATTER Create countdowns for trips, birthdays and important dates. Set reminders and see upcoming reminders and countdowns together in the Today overview. NO ACCOUNT NEEDED Your note content is stored on your device. Export a complete backup when you need one, or import a previous backup to merge with or replace your library. FREE TOOLS, OPTIONAL THEME PASSES Notes, checklists, handwriting, reminders, widgets and backups are available without an in-app purchase or subscription. Every theme collection includes a free option. Choose to watch one rewarded ad to unlock all extra themes for 24 hours. The pass starts only when the ad reward is earned. Saved notes keep their appearance after it expires. Ads are optional, and availability varies. Lock Screen widgets use the space and appearance provided by iOS. Widget setup, Live Activities and notifications depend on device support and your settings.
