HelloNotes just makes them a joy to think in. SUPPORTING HELLONOTES (OPTIONAL) HelloNotes is free, and every feature is included for everyone. Two entirely optional purchases live in Settings > Support. Backing HelloNotes adds one thing — the ability to send a support request from inside the app — and nothing else: • Champion — a one-off contribution of A$50. You can give more than once; the app remembers how many times. • Commercial — an annual licence for using HelloNotes at work. A$50 per year, an auto-renewable subscription charged to your Apple Account on confirmation and renewing each year unless turned off at least 24 hours before the period ends. Manage or cancel it in Settings > your name > Subscriptions.

  • This app has not received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.

HelloNotes now runs its AI on Apple Foundation Models. • Choose where AI runs: Apple Intelligence on your device, or an open model you download and run on your device with MLX. If Hugging Face isn't reachable where you are, you can choose a model folder instead. • Summaries now cover the whole of a long note, not just its opening. Tag suggestions come back in the note's own language, and link suggestions only ever name notes you have. • The Assistant looks through your notes before it answers, and changes nothing without your approval. Several changes proposed at once now wait their turn instead of failing. • Third-party AI services and API keys are gone. Any keys you had stored for them are deleted from this device. Also in this version: • A simpler window. Your collection is on the left, the note is in the middle, and what the note is — its outline, tags, links, properties, history and graph — is in one panel on the right. The Mind Map, the Assistant and Ask Your Library open as tabs beside your notes. • The Mind Map draws the links across a whole collection; the Graph shows one note's links in and out. • Find and Replace understands regular expressions. • Return continues a list, a note scrolls past its last line, and the blank lines you type are shown. • On an iPad held upright, the on-screen keyboard no longer rearranges the window. HelloNotes 1.3.3 requires iOS 27 or macOS 27.
