Cheatsheet is for the little things you never remember: hotel rooms, license plates, luggage combination, ID numbers. Write them down in Cheatsheet and then refer to them anytime in a Widget or paste them anywhere with the Custom Keyboard. No more fumbling to unlock your phone and find your notes app; Cheatsheet is as easy as looking at your lock screen, pulling up the keyboard, or glancing at your Apple Watch. App Features: • Simple UI for adding and managing your cheats. • Over 200 icons to help you recognize what you’re looking for. • Quickly copy a cheat by tapping-and-holding on a row. • Search for your cheats, both in the app and in Spotlight. • Use Shortcuts or Siri to “add notes to Cheatsheet” or “find notes in Cheatsheet”. • Organize your cheats with folders and titles. • Format your notes with bold, italics, lists, links, and more. • Protect your cheats with Passcode Lock (Pro feature). • Sync between all your iOS devices via iCloud (Pro feature). Widgets: • Multiple sizes, styles, and colors. • Tap a cheat to open it. Tap the “+” button to add a cheat in the app. • Cheatsheet also has a “Today widget” with options to copy or delete cheats. Apple Watch: • Add, edit, and delete cheats right from your wrist. • Complications show your top cheat (or several cheats) right on your watch face. • Syncs to your iPhone via iCloud (Pro feature). Keyboard Extension: • Shows up to 50 cheats, which you can insert anywhere you can use a custom keyboard. • Includes space, delete, and return keys to help with simple edits. Advanced Features: • Automate your workflows with Shortcuts. • Action extension: send text or URLs to Cheatsheet from any app via the share sheet. • Customize the Cheatsheet widget’s appearance and behavior to suit your needs. • Add or open notes from Control Center (iOS 18 required). • URL scheme for adding a cheat: cheatsheet://add?text=everything%20is%20awesome. Cheatsheet Pro: • Remove limits on the widget, keyboard, and Watch app. • Protect your cheats with Passcode Lock. • Organize your cheats with folders. • Sync your cheats between your devices with iCloud. • Cheatsheet Pro is a simple, annual subscription; there is a one-time purchase option for customers who want to avoid subscriptions. Cheatsheet for Mac is sold separately. • Purchases help support the ongoing development of Cheatsheet — this app is beloved by its users and has over 10 years of active development by a single indie developer, so your support is truly appreciated!

If you have an Apple Watch you need this!

This is a brilliant user friendly app. Where it shines however is on the Apple Watch. It is really handy for noting items you need from time to time. For example; store your car registration number for the next time you cross a car park and need to enter it for the car park machine. Keep a record of your lotto numbers and so on. The red and black colour scheme looks great on the Apple Watch too! My only criticism is that it doesn’t allow you to sort items by type. Basically everything is listed in the order that it is added. It would be nice for a future update? Anyhow, still one of my all time favourite apps!

Keep information close at hand with Cheatsheet

Simple, elegantly designed app which does one thing brilliantly. I keep frequently needed information close at hand via the widget on my iPhone and on my Apple Watch. I no longer forget on which level I parked my car nor what my hotel room number is or any number of many other information snippets having purchased the pro version. The ability to re-order cheats is very useful along with loads of icons to choose from to reference cheats from one another and the syncing between iPhone, iPad and watch via iCloud is rock solid. Thank you!

One of my essential apps

There are very few apps that I can claim I use every day, but Cheatsheet is one of them. Such a simple idea but really nicely executed and with new features being added all the time. I love that one single payment gives me the pro version without any subscription nonsense and that I can access it on my Mac and Apple Watch as well. Also have to say that the developer is super helpful and when I did have a little issue with the app and reached out to him, he was fantastic.

Decent but needs work

I have a few complaints with this one. Firstly, the new version 5.x does not sync properly with previous versions. That breaks compatibility between new devices and older ones, and I think the developers should find a way to fix it.Next, widgets are a big part of this app, but it doesn't let you have a widget that shows the content of a cheat. Only the titles. Let me have a note (a cheat) on my home screen please.Third, as far as I can tell the cheats are text-only? That's fine - I see that's the scope of the app - but I'd like to be able to add attachments even if the app can't show them inline or preview them.Lastly, the app is only available on the same platforms as Apple Notes. So what's the advantage to using it really? Most iPhone users use Windows computers. Few developers seem willing to acknowledge this and to fully tap into that market. I'm keen to see a Windows UWP version.So it's a nice app but it has some issues and some shortcomings. And it needs more icons for the cheats.

Developer Response
Thanks for the feedback! I'll try to respond to each point as best I can in the space provided.You are correct that users need to update to Cheatsheet 5 on all their devices to allow syncing. But that shouldn't break compatibility for anyone because Cheatsheet 5 supports every iOS version that Cheatsheet 4.9 supported, all the way back to iOS 15 and macOS 11.There is a "Solo Widget" style that shows the text of a single cheat. It's available as a Home and Lock Screen widget and as a Watch complication. When adding a widget, swipe through the styles and sizes and you'll see it.Re: Windows and attaching files, I understand the value but these are beyond the scope of Cheatsheet at this time. Cheatsheet is available on Apple Watch, which is a platform not supported by Apple's Notes app.I hope that clears a few things up. Please email adam@overdesigned.net if you have any more feedback (or specific icons you'd like to see). Thanks again!

• Added a new Keyboard setting: Smart Paste. Turn it off to avoid extra spaces with the Cheatsheet Keyboard. • Shortcuts app now offers "Open Folder" as one of Cheatsheet's built-in shortcuts. • The app icon is optimized for glass and tint modes on iOS 26. • Fixed a few bugs.
