Distraction-Free Notes

Txt

Quick, simple text notes without the complexity. When you need to capture a thought instantly, Txt is there—no formatting menus, no learning curve, just your words.

Sometimes you don't need a document. You need a place to jot something down right now. Txt is that place.

The interface is deliberately minimal. Open it, start typing, done. Notes are saved automatically. Search finds anything you've written.

It's the digital equivalent of a stack of index cards—simple, fast, and always available when inspiration strikes.
