Notes

Your notes. Your aesthetic. Aesthetic Notes is not an ordinary notes app. Here every note gets its own paper, its own type and its own colour – and, if you like, a strip of tape, a wax seal or punch holes along the edge. What comes out doesn't look like a form. It looks like something off your desk. THE SAME NOTES EVERYWHERE – AND THE SAME DESIGN iCloud keeps your notes on iPhone, iPad and Mac at once. Not just the text: paper, type, colour, trimmings and image crop travel with them. A note you design in the evening looks exactly the same on your other device in the morning. Nothing gets reformatted, nothing goes missing. Everything stays private in your own iCloud. FOUR KINDS OF NOTES • Text note with weight, alignment and bullets • To-do list to tick off, with a reminder for each item • Table for plans, weeks and overviews • Picture note with a clean crop DESIGN IT UNTIL IT FEELS RIGHT Ten paper colours from cream to sage. Blank, lined or grid. Seventeen typefaces from plain to handwriting. Plus around thirty trimmings: tape, wax seals, pins, paper clips, punch holes, torn edges, decorative frames and bows. Found a combination you love? Save it in the Style Studio as your own style and apply it to any other note with a single tap. ON YOUR HOME SCREEN Any note can go on your Home Screen as a widget – in three sizes and in its own design. Your shopping list ends up where you're already looking. FOR YOUR EYES ONLY Individual notes can be locked with Face ID, Touch ID or your passcode. A locked note stays milky – lovely to look at, impossible to read. DRAWING Pen, marker, pencil and eraser. On iPad with Apple Pencil too. ON MAC AS WELL Aesthetic Notes is also available for macOS. There your notes sit right on the desktop, free to place anywhere, and they can turn transparent. FREE AND PRO Aesthetic Notes is free. Pro unlocks custom colours with an eyedropper, your own images as note backgrounds, the Design Collection and more typefaces. Try it free for seven days.

Nubble organizes your thoughts in visual bubbles. Create notes, nest them inside your bubbles, tag them by how sure you are, and link related ideas — so your notes reflect how you actually think, not just when you wrote them down. Most notes apps ask you to decide on a structure before you have anything to put in it. Nubble lets the pile exist, then makes it something you can see and move around. Features: Visual bubble organization — bubbles hold notes and other bubbles, as deep as you like One note can live in several bubbles at once, no duplicates Drag and drop to rearrange, with pages that grow as you do Confidence tags: Certain, Think About More, Not Sure, Could Be Wrong — or make your own Link notes with typed connections and jump between them Lock private bubbles behind a password Search, sort, filter, and pin Import existing notes from text or by pasting Dark and light mode Free to use. Start as a guest with everything stored on your device, or sign in to sync across devices.
