Minimal is a notes and writing app designed to feel calm. Where most note apps crowd the screen with sidebars and badges, Minimal gives your words a spacious page and keeps its tools out of sight until you need them. It suits quick notes and longer writing projects alike, with Markdown style formatting, to do lists and features such as Note Lifetime, which lets a note fade away after a time you set. Everything syncs across Mac, iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch. Updated Aug 21, 2026.
