What is SideNotes?

SideNotes lives on the edge of your screen – always ready, never in the way.

Designed for momentary notes: tasks, ideas, phone numbers, links, quotes, screenshots, code snippets, recipes, vocabulary, colors.

SideNotes is a fast and lightweight notes app that opens from the side of your screen. Click the Open Bar, move your cursor to the edge (Hot Side), or use a keyboard shortcut — and just start typing. No need to create files or switch apps. Just open SideNotes, hit +, and write.

Whether you’re working, designing, coding, studying, or in a call — SideNotes lets you quickly capture:

– ideas, tasks, inspirations – links, quotes, references – phone numbers, to-dos, shopping lists – Markdown notes and code snippets – colors (type #rrggbb to preview and copy) – screenshots or images (just drag and drop) – recipes, vocabulary, creative drafts

Key features:

– Opens instantly from screen edge – Save text, links, images, color codes – Drag and drop screenshots into notes – No clutter: notes stay off-screen until needed – Folders, note colors, keyboard shortcuts – Highly customizable: fonts, layout, behavior – iCloud sync – Markdown support – Works with ThemeEdit — a free tool to create and modify themes

Unlike sticky notes that clutter your desktop, SideNotes keeps everything tidy and organized — yet always close at hand.

Trusted by designers, developers, and everyday users. Try SideNotes and never lose a thought again. If you enjoy it, please consider leaving a review.
