"Where did I write that note again?" FindMemo was built to take away that little everyday frustration — notes you can always find. Jot down whatever comes to mind, then pull it back up the moment you need it. FindMemo keeps the simple, lightweight feel of a great notepad, while making search its specialty. [Find it in a tap] Just type a keyword to search across both note titles and body text. With multi-keyword search (match all / match any), you can track down the note you're after even when you only half-remember it. [Organize with folders] Sort your notes into folders — and put folders inside folders, too. Build "Meetings" and "Ideas" inside "Work," and shape everything the way that works for you. Reorder and move things freely with drag and drop. [Simple and light] A clean screen with no clutter to get lost in. We kept it quick to launch and ready to write. Star the notes you use often and bring them up with a single tap. [Your data stays on your device] Every note you create is stored only on your device — never sent to a server. You can also export your notes with the backup feature to keep them safe. [Great for] - People who take lots of notes but can't find them later - Anyone who likes to stay organized with folders - Anyone looking for a simple, lightweight notepad This app is free to use.
