Quarterdeck Pro vs PurrNest

Quarterdeck is a notes app with Apple Intelligence built in — and it runs on your iPhone, not on someone's server. Summarize a long note. Pull the action items out of a meeting write-up and turn them into real tasks. Ask what your spending is telling you. All of it happens on-device, which means it works on a plane, and nothing you write is uploaded to be processed. WRITE THE WAY YOU ACTUALLY WORK • Rich text with headings, lists and checklists • Drop in photos and PDFs — they sit inline, where you put them • Dictate straight into a page and watch the words land as you speak • Scan a document with the camera and keep it as a real page, not a snapshot • Search finds words inside your images, not just the ones you typed • Lock a note behind Face ID or a PIN CAPTURE IT WHEREVER YOU ARE • Share a page from Safari and it arrives as a note, with a preview card • Home Screen widgets for today's tasks and one-tap capture • "Hey Siri, note this in Quarterdeck" • Everything syncs over iCloud, privately, across iPhone, iPad and Mac MORE THAN NOTES • Tasks — priorities, due dates, checklists, repeats • Agenda — your day and week, with real repeating events • Projects — plan work and track it to done • Finance — income, expenses, bills and budgets, with AI reading the trend • Code — a snippet library that explains any snippet back to you FREE, AND HONESTLY FREE Notes, tasks, agenda and projects are free forever — not a trial, not a countdown. You also get five Apple Intelligence runs a month at no charge, so you can judge it on your own notes. Quarterdeck Pro makes AI unlimited and adds dictation, document scanning, unlimited attachments, and the Finance and Code modules. Try Pro free for a week. PRIVACY Apple Intelligence runs on your device. Your notes sync through your own iCloud account. There is no Quarterdeck server, no account to create, and no analytics following you around. Requires an Apple Intelligence–capable device for the AI features. Everything else works on any iPhone running iOS 17 or later.
