SideNotes - Thoughts & Tasks 4+

I've been using this app for a while now, and I must say I absolutely love it. It's an incredibly useful tool for saving notes efficiently and effectively. The interface is user-friendly, and the features are robust, making it easy to organize my thoughts and tasks on the go.

However, there's one small feature that I think could enhance the user experience even further. Currently, the app can appear from the left or right side of the screen. It would be fantastic if you could add an option to have it come from the top instead. This would make navigation even smoother and more intuitive.

This app is amazing! As a scatterbrain if I don't immediately write down important thoughts/reminders…goodbye forever. I relied on the notes app for years, curating an assortment of snippets with no context, organization, or urgency, often left to be rediscovered and decrypted months later during spring cleaning attempts. Even pinned notes became quickly outdated, just not convenient enough to view or quickly organize in the moment.

Sidenotes finally offered what I was missing, quick access with an easily organizable format. On the the formatting, I mainly like the limited options as it frees the mind from spending too much time playing around with the settings.
But my big annoyance is the lack of a keyboard trigger only option. I don't like clutter so the choice between a visible bar that can also open up accidentally and another icon on my menu bar is a big pet peeve. I prefer to trigger it from a hotkey, but find there's no option to do so as I have with some of my other apps. Otherwise nothing but praise here!

I've wanted for years to have a quick way to jot things down. I've tried a dozen menu-bar apps and always returned to launching TextEdit and typing notes there. Textedit is very unsatisfying, hard to organize, and takes a long time.

SideNotes is the opposite: it's pretty, quick to open, and lets me organize my notes. Highly recommend it!

The only improvement I can imagine is to have it sync my notes via iCloud so I can use smoothly between my desktop and laptop (or maybe designate certain folders as shared and some not). Kudos!
