RIP, grocery list from 2019.

Volanote’s notes list with new, important, and older sample notes.
The notes list, with important ones flagged.

Getting notes in
was never the hard part.

Most notes apps are full of things somebody meant to come back to. More folders won’t help with that. Volanote gives you a quick review instead, one note at a time, where you keep it, flag it, or archive it and move on.

  • Capture from anywhere

    Use the app, the share sheet, Siri, a widget, or the Mac menu bar. Whatever’s closest when the thought shows up.

  • Review one at a time

    Swipe or tap to keep a note, mark it important, or archive it. Each one takes a few seconds.

  • Old notes resurface

    If you haven’t touched a note in a while, Volanote brings it back into view. You decide how many days counts as a while.

A few more things

On your Mac too

Notes sync through iCloud between your iPhone, iPad, and Mac, and the Mac app has quick capture right in the menu bar.

Reminders, if you want them

There’s an optional daily summary and a weekly nudge to sit down and review.

My Notes app was a graveyard. Hundreds of entries I’d never look at again: grocery lists from 2019, half-formed ideas, reminders for things that had already happened. Every note app I tried wanted me to set up folders and tags. What I was actually missing was any habit of going back to read what I’d written, so that’s what I built Volanote around.

Questions

Volanote privacy policy
Is this another system of folders and tags?

No. There aren’t any folders or tags. You capture notes quickly and review them as cards: keep, mark important, or archive.

What happens to archived notes?

They’re deleted automatically after 30 days. Restore anything you want to keep before then.

a second look.
