Note1 keeps one note in front of you. No folders. No lists. No endless scrolling. You open the app and your note is already there, ready to edit. PIN IT WHERE YOU LOOK Pin a note to your Lock Screen and the Dynamic Island. A phone number you just heard, a parking spot, a shopping list, the thing you must not forget today. Glance at your phone and it is there. THREE NOTES, ONE SWIPE APART Swipe left and right to move between your notes. Each one can be pinned on its own, so you can keep today's errand on the Lock Screen while the other notes wait. HOME SCREEN WIDGET Put your note on the Home Screen. Choose which note each widget shows, place several, and tap one to jump straight to that note. MADE TO STAY OUT OF THE WAY - Opens straight into your note - Adjustable text size and alignment - Minimal display option for the Dynamic Island so a glance does not reveal everything - Works offline. No account, no sign-up YOUR NOTES STAY YOURS Notes are stored on your device. We have no servers and cannot read what you write. FREE AND PRO The first note is free, forever.
