Hold My Papers

A quick thought. A daily list. Your next big idea. Give them a place of their own.

Hold My Papers is a private notes app for iPhone and iPad that combines everyday simplicity with useful writing tools, beautiful themes, and backups you control.

Open a note and start writing. Your changes save automatically on your device, even offline.

No account. No subscription. No ads. No tracking.

YOUR NOTES STAY YOURS

Your writing is stored locally. Hold My Papers does not collect your notes, track your activity, or use third-party analytics. There is no built-in cloud sync. You decide what to export, where to save a backup, and what to share.

For added privacy, choose biometric access or a separate app passcode. A Privacy Shield conceals your workspace when the app moves into the background.

MAKE IT FEEL LIKE YOU

Find your favorite look among 32 themes, with independent choices for Light and Dark appearance.

Personalize fonts, text size, text color, and editor zoom. Choose colors for Tags, date labels, and status markers. Complete the look with one of 71 app icon options, including colorful designs and OLED Black backgrounds.

From a quiet page to a colorful workspace, make your notes feel at home.

START SIMPLE. ADD WHAT YOU NEED.
