Singlenote
Read full descriptionHide full description
Singlenote is a notes app with a single note. Always open, always at hand, nothing to organize. Most note apps ask you to manage notebooks, tags, and folders before you can write anything down. Singlenote skips all of that. Open the app and you're straight into your note: the one place for the door code, your Wi-Fi password, a booking reference, your work schedule, or whatever you need to check again and again. WRITE AND FORMAT Bold, italic, underline, links, bullet lists, numbered lists, and checklists. Paste in Markdown from anywhere and it formats itself. ADD IMAGES Drop in photos of tickets, IDs, receipts, or anything else worth keeping close. Drag to reorder them, tap to view full-screen with pinch-to-zoom. SHARE IN A TAP Send your note to WhatsApp, email, or any app, formatting intact. Share text or images into Singlenote from other apps too, straight into your note. LOCK IT WHEN YOU'RE DONE Switch to read-only with one tap so nothing gets edited by accident, then unlock to keep writing. MAKE IT YOURS Light, dark, or automatic. Three text sizes. Six languages: English, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, and Italian. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your note stays on your device. We never see it, store it, or back it up on our servers. Singlenote collects a small amount of anonymous usage data to help us improve the app: things like note length or which tools get used, never your note content. Turn it off any time in Settings. One note. That's the whole app. Terms of Use: https://singlenote.app/terms-of-use
Instink Handwritten Notes

An idea shows up. By the time you've unlocked your phone, found your notes app and opened a new page, it's gone. Instink is a blank sheet on your Home Screen. Tap it and you're already writing â by hand, in your own handwriting. Tap Done and you're back where you were. One second. WHY PEOPLE KEEP IT âĸ Ready in under half a second. No account, no sign-up, nothing to choose before you write. âĸ Your handwriting, not a font. Finger or Apple Pencil, with ink that follows your hand. âĸ Saved from the very first stroke. Put the phone away mid-sentence: the note is already safe. âĸ Hands busy? Type, snap a photo or record your voice from the same sheet. âĸ Phone locked? Ask Siri to add a note to Instink and dictate it. No unlocking. EVERY WAY IN Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets, Control Center, the Action button, Back Tap and Shortcuts. Use the one closest to your thumb. THEN, WHEN YOU HAVE A MINUTE âĸ Sort new notes like cards: swipe right to send, left to keep, down to delete. Ten seconds. âĸ Send any note to Notion, Notes, Google Keep, Obsidian, Mail or Messages â as text, with your handwriting attached. âĸ Search your handwriting. Instink reads it on your device. âĸ Wrote "dentist tomorrow at 10"? Instink offers to put it in your calendar. âĸ Once a day an old note resurfaces â "a week ago today" â so good ideas don't get buried. âĸ At night the sheet turns dark, so it won't blind you in bed. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. No ads. No tracking. Your notes stay on your device and never pass through a server of ours. Handwriting and voice are recognized on your iPhone. WHAT INSTINK IS NOT It's not a notebook with folders and pages. It's the pen for the notes system you already use. Questions or ideas: hello@instink.app â a real person reads every message.
