  I appreciate the ability to rapidly capture a note/thought/todo without friction and context switching.I solved this problem with a twilio sms number. When I send a text to it, the content gets prepended to my obsidian todo.md file. This was easy to arrange with a few lines of Python glue.iOS makes it easy to text or share to sms from almost any context.

  My god it's the perfect app.I've never said YES BUY immediately after reading a title before but this is it.My phone frequently gets cluttered with tens of different note taking, calendar, Todo type apps because I am literally trying to solve this exact problem.When I need to make a note I need something instant and now, but which lets me set an alarm/reminder with it too. I am a forgetful person, I find it extremely difficult to remember which notes app I am using because I usually drop them because they're never really solving my problem.Thank you for this. I am going to install it and try it out over the week, if it's experience lives up to your description/screenshots then you have an immediate customer.

  I was reading it as "joon note" originally! I only realized I was misreading it when coming back to the comments. If you wanted to change up the name, maybe "June Note"? It has a nice ring to it IMO, and doesn't stray too far from your original name. Nature-y too, which seems to be a bit of a theme.Really nice job on the app though! I think written-beyond's comment says more than enough: you've made what should be a default feature, that no one had thought to make.

  This is a very useful feature as an app.It will definitely come in handy when it is much needed.The video walk-through is solid.It seems like a genuinely good app which does what it says it does.Great job!

  Funny, it doesn’t look jooish
• ifh-hn
  As a native English speaker who had to Google joonish to see what people were talking about, what is the big issue with the name?

  Any plans on possibly making the notes be local markdown files similar to how Obsidian does it?
• lucasay
  Cool idea, lock screen notes actually solve a real annoyance. But yeah, you might want to rethink the name—it’s likely to turn people off before they even try it.

  Great demo video as well, I appreciated that it didn't waste time. I'll echo the comments here though, the name doesn't sit well with some audiences.

  Simple idea, right surface. Lock screen is the most underused real estate on a phone. Curious how you handle the note limit before it gets cluttered.

  That is a poor choice of naming. Sounds like JewNote.
• anonym29
  I believe the politically correct phrasing would be Jooishnote.

  First they controlled Hollywood.Then they controlled all of Politics.Then they controlled when we went to war.Now you want them to control your notes???/s but “Joo” is filterspeak for “Jews”. Sounds antisemitic as fuck.
