About Folio, a minimal notebook

Folio is a notes app that refuses to choose between beautiful and capable. On the surface it's a calm, paper-inspired place to write. Underneath is a serious tool: backlinks, smart folders, version history, and biometric locking — the kind of power usually reserved for heavier apps. A LOVELY PLACE TO WRITE • Rich text: headings, lists, checklists, highlights, quotes, and code • Inline images and re-editable Apple Pencil sketches • A "/" command menu and Markdown shortcuts ORGANIZED YOUR WAY • Nestable folders and cross-cutting tags • Wiki-style [[links]] with automatic backlinks • Smart folders that save any search as a live view • Ranked search that finds what you mean NEVER LOSE A WORD • Automatic version history with one-tap restore • Pin, archive, and a 30-day recoverable trash • "On This Day" resurfaces past notes MADE YOURS • 9 fully-designed themes — Paper, Leather, Blueprint, Terminal, Bauhaus, and more • Adjustable fonts, text size, and light/dark EVERYWHERE • iPhone, iPad, native Mac (with a menu-bar capture popover), and Apple Watch • A Recent Notes widget and Siri Shortcuts • Face ID locking for private notes PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your notes sync through your own iCloud and stay on your devices. No accounts, no ads, no trackers — free.
