Everything Simply Notes gives you.
A complete toolkit for focused writing — on your own, with a team, or with the wider Community.
Study Mode
Split-screen a PDF, document, or website next to your notes. Read on one side, write on the other — no tab switching.
Private Notes
A separate, PIN-locked space for anything confidential — hidden from your normal notes list and search, never shareable, and exportable only as a labeled PDF. A different lock than sharing controls: this area doesn't exist until you unlock it.
Wikipedia & Web Search
Search Wikipedia right from Study Mode's search bar, or paste any link to embed a site next to your notes — no new tab, no losing your place.
Academic Paper Search
Search real academic papers across Semantic Scholar, OpenAlex, and arXiv, right inside Study Mode — only legally open-access, free full-text results ever show up.
Group Workspaces
Create a shared space for a project or a team: group notes, chat, and file sharing in one place, gated behind an invite.
Real-time Sync
Edits, new notes, and chat messages appear for every group member the instant they happen — no refresh, no polling.
Installs Like a Native App
No App Store, no Play Store, no separate download — just add it and go. Works on desktop, tablet, and mobile: Windows, macOS, Android, iOS. Add it to your home screen or dock and it opens instantly, full-screen, and works offline.
Community
Publish a note or write a post to a public feed, organized by topic. Vote, comment, and get feedback — moderated by a dedicated Moderator role, and fully optional.
Fully Responsive
The same clean interface adapts to any screen — phone, tablet, laptop, or ultrawide monitor. No separate mobile app, no missing features on smaller screens.
Group Chat
A lightweight chat panel for every group — reactions, image and file attachments, and a delete-history option for owners.
Pomodoro Timer
A built-in focus timer that lives right in your editor, so deep work sessions don't need a separate app.
Private by default
Share a note publicly, as a hidden unguessable link, or password-protect it. Every note starts visible to no one but you.
Export anywhere
Word, PDF, Markdown, RTF, ePub, TextBundle — your notes are never locked in.
Image & PDF attachments
Drop images and PDFs straight into a note or the Study panel — compressed and stored without slowing you down.
Translate the Whole App
One click translates every page — your notes, the Community, and the interface itself — into any of 30+ languages, powered by Google Translate.
Privacy by Design
No background scrapers, no data harvesting. Your notes are strictly yours and are never used to train any AI model.
Nested Tagging
Organize your thoughts organically. Group notes by project, topic, or date using flexible #tags and nested sub-tags without rigid folders.
Independent Reader Theme
Visitors of your shared pages can switch between Light and Dark mode on their own screen without changing your account preferences.
Instant Search
Find any thought in milliseconds. Fast, full-text search means your entire library is searchable the moment you start typing.
Distraction-Free Editor
A clean, typography-first markdown workspace with zero noisy sidebars or auto-correct popups so you can focus strictly on prose.
Custom Vanity Links
Publish web notes with your username and custom title slugs for a clean, professional aesthetic when sharing with readers.
