jotr
Capture first, organise later.
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad
Your brain is loud. jotr is quiet.
jotr is the no-friction capture app for the things that pop into your head all day — the half-formed idea in the shower, the todo you'll forget by lunch, the reminder you keep meaning to set. Open the app, jot it down, get on with your life.
No folders to pick. No setup. No empty-state lectures. Just four buttons — Note, Todo, Idea, Reminder — and a blinking cursor waiting for you.

Why people love jotr
Because the best note-taking app is the one you actually open. jotr was built around a single rule: from "I should write this down" to "it's written down" in fewer than three taps. Everything else — organization, search, sync, sharing — comes after that.
Stop losing thoughts to "I'll remember." Start jotting.

Habits are here — and they actually feel good.
Your brain deserves a habit tracker that doesn't guilt-trip you. So we built one.
• SWIPE IT DONE — drag a habit across and watch the XP land. Instant reward, zero friction.
• EARN XP FOR EVERYTHING — habits, captures, todos, and focus sessions all level you up. Hot streaks earn bonus XP.
• STREAKS THAT FORGIVE — life happens. Miss a day or two and your streak survives. No red badges, no shame. Pick it back up today.
• YOUR HISTORY, LIT UP — every habit gets a heatmap of your last 16 weeks. Watch the wall fill in.
• CHECK OFF FROM YOUR HOME SCREEN — the new Habits widget lets you complete habits without even opening the app. Wrist too, on Apple Watch.
• SCHEDULE YOUR WAY — every day, or just Mon/Wed/Fri. Off-days never break your streak.
Two habits free, forever. Unlimited with jotr Premium — one purchase, no subscriptions.
Stop losing thoughts. Start stacking wins.
