Etched: Markdown Notes
Find any note by meaning
Free · In-App Purchases
Stop losing your own notes.
Etched finds what you wrote by meaning — not just by keyword. Ask for "the note about slowing down to think" and it surfaces, even if those exact words were never written. Everything runs on your device.
Write in plain markdown and watch it render as you type — no symbols, no preview pane, no modes. What you see is the file. Your notes stay portable .md, yours forever.
FREE, and complete:
• On-device semantic search — find notes by meaning
• Live WYSIWYG markdown — bold, headings, lists, quotes, code
• Tables, callouts, code blocks, footnotes, highlights, links
• iCloud sync across your devices
• Export to .md (raw or with rendered images), PDF, plain text
ETCHED PRO — one-time purchase, yours forever:
• Flashcards + spaced repetition — turn notes into memory
• Diagrams from plain text (flowcharts, sequences, mind maps)
• Typeset math and chemistry (LaTeX)
• Charts from a few rows of data
• Sheet music from ABC notation
• Handwriting / sketches
• Present mode — turn a note into full-screen slides
• Per-note themes
Reading every format is always free — Pro unlocks creating them. No subscription, ever. Pay once and keep it.
Coming from Apple Notes, Obsidian, or Bear? Your markdown imports as plain .md, and you finally get search that finds notes by meaning — privately, with no account.
Private by design: your notes never leave your devices except through your own iCloud. No account, no tracking, no ads.
Your notes, etched in memory.

• Restored the actions menu — share, present, backlinks, and more — on iPad and Mac.
• Small fixes and polish throughout.
