EdgeNotes: Sticky Notes
Desktop notes, out of the way
Only for Mac
$2.99
Mac
Sticky notes that wait at the side of your screen and spread out when you reach for them. Encrypted on your Mac. No account, no cloud.
EdgeNotes keeps your sticky notes where you can always reach them and never have to look at them: docked to the edge of your screen.
When you're not using it, EdgeNotes is a slim strip of color at the side of your screen, one mark for each note. Reach for it and your notes spread out like a hand of cards, each with its own label. Rest on one to read it, and move away to tuck it back. Click a note to write in it, and it stays open until you're done.
WHAT YOU GET
• A deck on the left or right edge of the screen, at whatever height you drag it to
• Notes in six colors, with checklists, bullet and numbered lists, and clickable links
• Pin a note to keep it open, even after you quit and reopen the app
• Archive instead of delete: a finished note leaves the deck but stays searchable
• One window with every note: search it, or show just the deck or the archive
• Export as Markdown or plain text files, or all in one Markdown file, and back up every note in one step
• Global shortcuts for a new note, all notes and hiding the deck, and you choose the keys
• One deck per display, an option to show over full-screen apps, and Open at Login
• Your choice of pill size, label font and size, handwriting face and text size
• Light and Dark Mode, VoiceOver labels, and Reduce Motion support
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Your notes live in a database on your Mac. The title and text of every note are encrypted with AES-GCM, and the key stays in your Keychain on that Mac. There is no account and no server, and EdgeNotes itself never connects to the internet. No analytics, no tracking, no third-party code. EdgeNotes asks for no system permissions at all: no Accessibility, no Input Monitoring, no Screen Recording.
Your notes stay exportable, always.
