It’s a rare occurrence when a really good app with cloud sync comes out for the iPhone, iPad and Mac. Notefile, by Junecloud, is lightweight notebook that syncs your notes between your iPhone, iPad, and even your Mac.
The great thing about Notefile is that it’s super minimal— there are literally no settings to customize. All you have to do is login with a free Junecloud ID to start syncing your notes across your devices. It just works!
The whole point of Notefile is to let you, “make quick notes and view them quickly, from anywhere.” And I have to say, the app does just that. Previously, I had been using Simplenote for my note taking needs on the go, but after testing Notefile, I may just make the switch.
Another bonus to Notefile is that Junecloud offers a free, gorgeous Dashboard widget to sync your notes with your Mac. The widget is available for free on Junecloud’s site.
The whole look and feel of Notefile closely resembles that of a physical, Moleskin-like notebook. Seriously, it really feels like you’re jotting down a note on a notebook— the texture and attention to detail in the app is that precise. The overall design of Notefile just screams minimalist perfection.
Pro users will of course feel left out with Notefile, as the app doesn’t have any kind of rich text or formatting options. Unfortunately, you can’t change the caramel color scheme, either. But I think you’ll find that the design grows on you as you play around with Notefile.
If you’re someone who wants a simple, fast, and beautiful note taking app, Notefile is perfect for you. The universal app is available for $4.99 in the App Store. To set up cloud sync, you’ll need to register a free account with Junecloud in-app.
