Your mind is for having ideas – not holding them. Get your ideas, to-dos and thoughts quickly down using Notation. The notepad editor that is always just one keystore away.

I've been looking for a nicer looking alternative to nvalt for a long time. Just something simple and beautiful for capturing notes quickly. But I need to be able to sync those notes through either Dropbox or iCloud, so hopefully that functionality is on the roadmap.

Pros:

Super simple, super fast. Helps get ideas out of my head the moment I have them.

Cons:

Can't set custom storage folder, so syncing notes through Dropbox won't work.

Looks beautiful! Almost downloaded, but I'm afraid it's too simple for my needs. The default Notes.app's ability to sync across my devices is something I use all day, every day.
