noglow vs NoteScreen

noglow is a titleless scratchpad for iPhone, iPad and Mac. No titles to invent, no folders, no tags, no markdown. Just a blank line and eight slots that never move. Whatever you left in slot 2 is still in slot 2. When a note is done, peel it away. It goes into a searchable archive that never fills up, and the slot is clear for what you are working on now. - Eight slots, one tap or one keystroke apart - Peel finished notes into a permanent, searchable archive - On iPad: a full-screen layout, the archive side by side, keyboard shortcuts - Works across your devices - Optional cloud sync. Free, no account needed to start. - Plain text only. No formatting to fuss with. Free, and that includes sync.

Write a note. It lives on your Lock Screen. That's it. NoteScreen is the simplest reminder app you'll ever use. The thing you need to remember sits on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island — front and center every time you pick up your phone. Impossible to miss. SCHEDULE YOUR DAY • Notes rotate on your schedule — "Take out the trash" 7–8 AM, "Wind down" at 9 PM. NoteScreen swaps them automatically with a silent nudge at each change. • Recurring days — set "Trash night" for every Tuesday, "Water plants" for Sundays. • Always mode pins one note up all day. GLANCEABLE EVERYWHERE • Lock Screen Live Activity, Dynamic Island, and Home & Lock Screen widgets — your current note is wherever you look. • Interactive widgets — check off a note right from your Home Screen without opening the app. • Up to 10 notes, 80 characters each. Short enough to read at a glance. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account, no login, no cloud. NoteScreen never touches the network — your notes live on your iPhone and nowhere else. Good to know: iOS limits Live Activities to 8 hours, so the Lock Screen banner refreshes whenever you open the app. Add the Lock Screen widget for a note that never expires.
