## Description

You're on the go. Someone's giving you directions, or a phone number, name of a restaurant... you need to write it down now, quickly!

No time to create new contact, or a note, a file, or waste time on additional taps, bring up keyboard... You just need to write it somewhere right now.

*scratch* is a simple scratch pad.

• No bells or whistles, just a simple area to quickly jot something down.
• Launch *scratch* and write.
• Quickly create lists or checkboxes.
• All plain text.
• Share to other apps or save to Files as an org file (plain text).
• No cloud, account, sign-in, or social required.

Bonus: Emacs org mode lovers, you can use lightweight org markup like headings, plain lists, numbered lists, and checkboxes.
