AURA Notes is a calm, beautifully considered space for your ideas, plans and everyday writing. Free to use, with no subscriptions or in-app purchases. WRITE WITH CLARITY A flexible block editor brings together text, headings, quotes, bullet points and checklists. Focus mode gives your words room to breathe. Organize notes with folders, tags, favorites and backlinks, then find them with search and Spotlight. A LITTLE INTELLIGENCE, ENTIRELY ON DEVICE Writing studio uses Apple Intelligence to summarize notes, polish prose, suggest titles and tags, and find action items. Review every suggestion before adding it. Summaries and revisions are appended, preserving your original writing. No API key or AI subscription is required. CAPTURE THE MOMENT Add photos and files, scan documents, sketch ideas, or record and transcribe voice notes. Send text, links and attachments to AURA from the Share menu. Export your writing as Markdown or PDF. KEEP WHAT MATTERS Use iCloud sync, version history, encrypted backups and a protected Vault for selected notes. App Lock and privacy controls let you decide what appears in widgets, search and notifications. MADE FOR YOUR DAY Turn notes into checklists, add reminders, use templates, and reach your writing through widgets and App Shortcuts. A restrained light and dark appearance keeps the focus on your content. Apple Intelligence requires a compatible device, a supported language and region, and Apple Intelligence enabled in Settings. Writing studio handles notes up to 6,000 characters. All other note-taking features work without Apple Intelligence. Voice transcription, iCloud and reminders depend on device permissions and service availability.
