Apptorium FiveNotes 3.3.0 for Mac
Mac UtilitiesFiveNotes, from Polish developer Apptorium, takes the opposite approach to most note apps: it gives you exactly five notes, and no more. The idea is focus — with only five slots, you keep just the information that matters right now instead of letting a notes app become a dumping ground. FiveNotes 3.3.0 for Mac lives in your menu bar, appears instantly with a click or keyboard shortcut even over full-screen apps, and formats your notes with Markdown, including checkable tasks.
Key Features
- Exactly five notes, switched by coloured dots or keyboard shortcuts

FAQs
Is FiveNotes a subscription?
No. It is a one-time purchase for the current major version, with free updates within that version. The Mac app is listed at $7.99 on the developer's site.
Why only five notes?
The limit is the point of the app. It encourages you to prioritise and keep your quick notes clean instead of hoarding hundreds of forgotten snippets.
