Wake up, Neo... Introducing the quickest and best-looking notes app for iPhone. Record your ideas fast in over 50+ gorgeous authentic bitmap fonts and endless color schemes, in the classiest writing interface ever made - a blinking cursor on a black screen. I built this app for myself because I truly couldn't find a notes app for the phone that immediately opened up to a new note, and looked good. Then I re-watched The Matrix, and I realized I had to make a terminal journal. But then I found these extremely high quality pixel fonts and had to do them justice, and got way too carried away and ended up making an app so top-tier it's easily worth than this. If you can't afford it, email me hello@ffeedd.is. FFEEDD is a minimalist journal for anyone tired of the same old app design.. anybody who needs a place outside of their main to-do list to collect their beautiful weird little ideas.. or anyone who their grocery list in neon orange pixel typography. And FFEEDD is 100% completely private. Your journal is stored locally on your device. No cloud sync. No user accounts. No contact list requests. No data leaves your phone. Ever. Nobody can see your entries. And it's open-source, so the core app code files are available on our website below for anyone to inspect. $9.99. Once. Forever. No free tier. No surprise subscription. No premium unlock. No "upgrade to keep your entries." You pay once. You own it. Less than one month of the other guys — and it's yours for life. We will be moving to subscription soon, so anyone who downloads now will be locked in free for life. —— 50+ AUTHENTIC RETRO FONTS Real bitmap fonts from real machines. IBM EGA. Commodore. Chicago. Kaypro. Press Start 2P. We sourced them from the archives at int10h.org — the same fonts that glowed on CRTs in 1985. Pick your favorite. Heart the ones you love. ENDLESS COLORS Unmatched aesthetic. Long-press any entry to cycle through. Or dial in your own with HSB sliders and hex input. Your journal, your palette. CHECKLISTS, NUMBERED LISTS, DASH LISTS Type [ and space to automatically create a checklist item. Tap to check it off — strikethrough and all. Totally inline and slick. YOUR FEED Every entry, color-coded, in a clean reverse-chronological feed. Pin the ones that matter. Tap to edit. EXPORT Share entries as text, or an image, or export a typing video — a 9:16 pixel grid reveal of your words appearing letter by letter. Made for your story. Made for TikTok. Made for the aesthetic.
