Use case · Study and reading notes

Study and reading notes you can find by topic

Lecture notes, book highlights, research for a thesis or an article. What you learn is only useful if you can find it when you need it. MnemoNotes lets you tag notes by topic, link them to each other and search them instantly, and encrypts them on your device.

Write in Markdown

Headings, lists, quotes, code and tables: notes are written in Markdown and shown formatted. The first line becomes the title, so a new note starts with the cursor in the text. Press Alt+N (Option+N on a Mac) and start typing.

System 2 is lazy: it accepts System 1’s answer unless something forces a check. Compare with the anchoring notes from last week.

Organise by topic, course or book

Tag notes with #topic as you write; autocomplete offers the topics you used before. Add notes to documents, such as one per course or per book, and keep documents in folders. A note can be in several documents at once, so a note on statistics can sit under two courses.

Link ideas together

Type + and a title to link a note to another one. Coming from Obsidian? Import your vault: folders become documents, tags become topics and wikilinks become links between notes.

Find it before the exam

Filter on a topic, a date range or any word from the note. Search runs on your device, so it is instant and works offline, on a train or in a library without Wi-Fi.

Study together

Share a note with a classmate as an editor or a viewer, or make a shared document for a study group so everyone’s notes end up in one place.

Yours, and only yours

Every note is encrypted on your device before it syncs, including its tags and titles. Export everything at any time as a folder of Markdown files. See how the encryption works.

More ways to use it

The same app holds your quick notes, plans and projects and a private journal.
