Palim: Scratchpad

Palim is a calm scratchpad for plain text, code and Markdown. Open it and start typing: there is no Save button, no files and no account. Notes save themselves as you type and are still there when you come back days later.

• Many notes, titled automatically from the first line (or rename them) • Plain Text, Code with highlighting for 18 languages, and Markdown with Edit, Split and Preview views • Mermaid diagrams in Markdown: flowcharts, sequence diagrams, Gantt and pie charts, mindmaps and more, drawn in your theme's colors • Folders, nested as deep as you like, in your own order (drag and drop) • Pin the notes you use every day to the top • Search every note at once, ignoring accents: "pho" finds "phở" • Tick tasks right in the Preview • Paste Markdown or code into a new note and Palim recognises it • A keyboard bar with Undo, Tab, arrows and the symbols you need • Adjustable text size • Present a folder as slides: every note is a slide, and a --- line in Markdown starts the next one. Make the text bigger or switch the theme from the slide toolbar • Open text, code, Markdown, JSON and ZIP files in Palim from Files, Mail or any app (Open With or Share); the original is never changed • Import files as notes and share any note as a file • Themes: System, Light, Dark, Sepia, Snow, Graphite • Delete with Undo; the Trash keeps notes for 30 days • Made for iPhone and iPad, in any orientation

Private by design: your notes stay on your device. Palim has no account, no server, no ads, no in-app purchases, no analytics and no tracking.

Your notes come with you to a new iPhone or iPad: they are part of your own iCloud Backup, so restoring a device or setting up a new one brings them back. Export All Notes saves everything into one file you keep wherever you like.
