Instead of treating notes as a static archive, ShuffleNote turns saved thoughts into cards you can shuffle, like, skip, and rank. It is built for people who want old notes to resurface at the right moment without turning note-taking into a heavy project system. Key features - Fast writing screen for immediate capture - Auto-save based on a configurable interval - Shuffle mode for reviewing notes in a random order - Like, skip, and back actions for quick review - Ranking view for notes you keep returning to - Search and sort across all saved notes - Optional location capture for location-aware notes - Markdown export for keeping a portable backup - Korean and English interface options ShuffleNote stores notes on device. Location access is optional and is used only to attach a place to notes and filter nearby notes when the user enables those flows.
