PeekNote – A minimal always-on-top notes app for macOS

👋 Hey Product Hunt!

I’m excited to share PeekNote — a tiny, always-on-top note app for macOS designed for developers, creators, and anyone who works with text or code snippets.

Like many of you, I often found myself juggling code, docs, ideas, and random text across too many apps and tabs. I wanted a small tool that could stay visible, organize quick notes, and help me copy/paste things without disrupting my flow.

So I built PeekNote — a distraction-free, focused utility that stays right where you need it.


✨ What PeekNote does:

  • 📌 Always on top — your notes are always visible

  • 📂 Multiple tabs — organize text snippets by topic (API, UI, formulas, etc.)

  • 📝 Resizable editor — stretch it as you like for longer notes

  • 📋 Clipboard support — paste directly from your browser or IDE

  • 💾 Local storage — no cloud, no accounts, just privacy

🧠 Why it’s useful:

PeekNote isn’t trying to replace Notion or full-blown editors.
It’s more like a focused companion — the place where you drop the stuff you’ll need 5 minutes from now.


Perfect for:

I’d love to hear your thoughts, feature ideas, or how you’d use PeekNote in your workflow!

Just tried PeekNote — it’s super convenient and surprisingly useful! Love how it stays on top and makes it easy to keep track of code snippets or quick notes without breaking focus.

Definitely a handy little tool! 👌
