Inkroll is the companion app for people who love writing by hand but hate losing their notes. Keep a digital index of everything in your physical notebooks (page numbers, titles, notes, tags, and photos) so you can always find what you wrote, even years later. -- WHY INKROLL -- Your paper notebooks are irreplaceable. But finding a specific idea, quote, or sketch from six months ago is another story. Inkroll solves this by giving each notebook entry a searchable digital record, linked to the exact page in the exact notebook where it lives. -- FEATURES -- • Multiple Notebooks — organise entries across as many notebooks as you own, each with its own colour. • Page Entries — log the page number, a title, a note, and tags for any page worth remembering. • Full-Text Search — instantly find entries by title, note content, or tag name across all your notebooks. • Tags — colour-coded tags let you group related entries across different notebooks. • Widget — glance at your most recent entry straight from your Home Screen (small and medium sizes). • Quick Entry — add an entry to your default notebook without leaving the Home Screen widget. -- INKROLL PRO -- One-time purchase. No subscription, ever. • Photo Attachments — photograph the page and attach it to your entry. Tap to view full-screen. • iCloud Sync — your entire index syncs automatically across every iPhone and iPad on your Apple ID. • Export as PDF — generate a clean, printable PDF of any notebook's entries. • Export as CSV — export a spreadsheet-ready file for use in Excel, Numbers, or any data tool. -- DESIGNED FOR ANALOG LOVERS -- Inkroll doesn't try to replace your notebooks. It makes them smarter. Write with your favourite pen, on your favourite paper — then take ten seconds to log the page in Inkroll. That's it. No subscriptions. No cloud lock-in. Your data lives in your iCloud account.
