Five things this
app doesn't have.

Five things you don't have to think about.

No styling

No bold, no headings, no color. Pasted formatting stays out, and styling is never your problem.

No saving

Everything saves itself. Close any window, any time — never asked to save, never told a name's already taken.

No sorting

No tags, no folders. Notes keep the order you wrote them in, and search reads every word to find them.

No network

Works fully offline. No cloud, no sync — nothing to leak, nothing to conflict.

No lock-in

Keep your files anywhere you like. Edit them anytime, with or without this app.

You'll like this if…

Anyway, just
jot it down.

Free · macOS 26 / Universal Binary

FAQ

Can Anyway jot open existing .txt files?
Yes. Point it at any folder on your disk and it reads the plain text files already there.
Does iCloud Drive sync work?
Yes. Choose a folder inside iCloud Drive as your storage location and macOS handles the sync.
How do I back up my notes?
Just copy the folder. Your notes are ordinary files — no export needed.
Will uninstalling delete my notes?
No. The files stay exactly where they are on disk.
Is there a Markdown preview?
No, on purpose. What you type is exactly what you see.
Is there a Windows or iOS version?
No. Anyway jot is macOS only.
