A super simple note app inspired by Apple Notes

Top comment

I've always been a frequent user of Apple Notes. I’ve loved its simplicity — no unnecessary features, just pure focus on writing. But sometimes, creating folders felt a bit tedious, and I wished I could see all my notes at a glance in a more organized way. That’s where the idea came from. I decided to build a simple note app that combines minimal writing with clear, visual categories. While developing this app, my top priorities were simplicity and clarity. I wanted users to jot down their thoughts instantly, so I designed a bright red signature button for quick access, and spent a lot of time refining the flow for organizing and viewing notes by category. The overall writing experience was deeply inspired by the clean and intuitive structure of Apple Notes. It’s a small project, but one made with genuine care — I hope it helps people capture their own moments of inspiration.
