Minimal | Writing + Notes for PC and Mac

Software Reviews and Criticism

  So simple and easy to use it is now my number one note app.

  I am one of those crazy digital dorks who tries everything. And I mean, everything. Sometimes just for fun. The world of note-taking is crazy right now. New ones are popping up what feels like every day. And this dork is tired and wanted to find a note-taking app and be done. And I did. Finally. I have every notes app you can imagine on my Windows and don't get me wrong, there are some powerful and unique apps out there, but when it came down to it and I looked at how I was actually working, I saw that the majority of the "notes" I create get to a point where they graduate and are used somewhere else after I was done. A natural progression in my workflow. Emails, blog posts, presentations, or even jotting down ideas that I wanted to get down, so I didn't forget them. But even with the spontaneous ideas, they would end up somewhere else entirely in my workflow, like Miro, ClickUp, or Things. In the end, as I mentioned, I found my note-taking app. Finally. Bravo, Minimal team, wherever you are in the world. You nailed it. Best, Pete (P.S. Suggestion if I may. Integration with Things and ClickUp. Send to the inbox for Things and a list in ClickUp. It would be amazing. :) )

  Best note-taking app in the store hands down

  I take a ton of notes through work, and this made it significantly easier. Being able to organize and share my work on multiple platforms has started to ‘bleed’ into my personal life - I love being able to write a thought down and share with friends and family - or keep it for myself so I don’t forget. If I could give more than 5 stars I would, absolutely.

  The other direction

  I’ve tried a bunch of other writing apps, and I really appreciate how the design of Minimal just goes in the other direction of most of the other apps. It’s lovely to write in, and the markdown in the display is very subtle. I like writing in markdown and reading without the markings. Minimal does an elegant job at that. While Minimal has a good set of features, it doesn’t have a million of them. It’s really easy to “put pen to paper” and start writing. The other direction I mentioned - I love love love how notes disappear if they aren’t in use. I don’t need bi directional links for everything I write. Sometimes I just want to write without thinking of everything at the same time. Long story short, Minimal is well designed, and helps me stay in the moment.

  Exactly what I was looking for

  This notes app is absolutely wonderful. It's easy to use, incredibly simple, and perfect for opening up whenever I need to jot down a quick idea or short list, and great for longer-form writing as well, like essays or other writing assignments. Other note apps are simple, but not pretty. OR. Pretty, but not simple. This is both, and it's fantastic 👌🏻

  love it, needs one simple fix

  Love this app! So easy to create content that stays in a readable, spacious space. Folks at minimal - PLEASE create a way to tab over in a note. We should be able to write underneath other writing and make it apparent that this content refers to the original line. Right now, we can only make bulleted lists in the same column as the rest of our writing. This, for me, defeats the purpose of creating a bulleted list within a note. I can’t tell what’s a part of the list and what’s not! Please please please fix this and create a “tab” button within a note. This app would be perfect, then. Eg. Heres the main idea - and here is a bullet point - and another - they would automatically indent - making it easy to see it’s refering to the main point
