Gravity – Minimal Notes

Gravity is a fast, private notes app with one stream, instant capture, and a simple rule: swipe to bump what matters back to the top.

You open your notes app to jot down a quick idea. But first: which folder? What tags? Should you link it to something? By the time you've decided, the thought is gone.

Gravity eliminates every barrier between your thoughts and the page. No folders. No tags. No complex systems to maintain. Just one continuous stream, and your attention decides what stays relevant.

- Syncs privately via your personal iCloud account. No third-party servers.
- No account required. No sign-up. No tracking.
- One-time purchase. No subscription. No ads.

HOW IT WORKS

Append — Open the app and start typing. Your note saves automatically. No tapping "new note." No choosing a location. Just capture
Review — Scroll through your stream. New notes live at the top. Older notes naturally drift down over time, like thoughts settling in your mind.
Rescue — When something catches your attention, swipe right to bump it back to the top. Your attention becomes your organization system.
Archive — When a note has served its purpose, swipe left. Done.

Not a second brain. Not a knowledge graph. Just your thoughts, in one stream.

INSPIRED BY SIMPLICITY

Gravity is built around Andrej Karpathy's append-and-review method for personal notes: keep one running stream, review it periodically, and let your attention decide what stays relevant. Most notes apps tolerate this workflow. Gravity is designed for it.

ONE PRICE. YOURS FOREVER.

Pay once. No subscription. No in-app purchases. No ads. Just a thoughtfully crafted notes app that respects your attention and your wallet.

Stop organizing. Start thinking.
