Notely is a powerful, privacy-first note-taking and drawing app built for iPad and iPhone. Write, sketch, annotate, and organize — all without creating an account or sending a single byte of data off your device.
DRAW WITH PRECISION
Use pen, pencil, and highlighter tools with full Apple Pencil pressure sensitivity. Draw shapes, select and move strokes with the lasso tool, and fine-tune your work with adjustable stroke smoothing. Predicted touch rendering keeps your strokes feeling instant.
INFINITE ZOOM
Zoom from 0.001% to 100,000,000% — navigate massive canvases and zoom into the finest details without losing quality.
WRITE WITH RICH TEXT
Type formatted notes with bold, italic, underline, headings, bullet points, numbered lists, and checklists. Pick any font, size, and color.
ANNOTATE PDFs
Import PDF documents and mark them up directly on the page with all the same drawing and text tools.
STAY ORGANIZED
Create color-coded folders and subfolders. Favorite your most-used notes. Search your entire library instantly. Work across multiple notes at once with tabs.
CHOOSE YOUR CANVAS
Pick from blank, ruled, graph, or dot grid paper. Set letter or A4 page sizes in portrait or landscape — or go infinite with unlimited whiteboard mode.
KEEP NOTES PRIVATE
Lock individual notes with Face ID or a password. No account required. No cloud sync. No analytics. No data collection. Your notes live on your device and nowhere else.
REPLAY YOUR WORK
Watch your drawings play back stroke by stroke with adjustable speed and timeline scrubbing.
