Features & Capabilities

Easy Markdown Notes, Quick Capture, and To Dos

Notive is the note app for people who think fast and organize deep. Capture ideas in a keystroke, find anything instantly, and triage your inbox into a system that actually works.

Built for writers, planners, and thinkers who outgrew Apple Notes but don't need a second job managing Notion. Notive combines the capture speed of Drafts, the instant search of Notational Velocity, and the structured power of org-mode -- all in a native iOS app that feels like it belongs on your device.

  • Rich Markdown editor with live preview: headings, bold, italic, links, code blocks, checkboxes, and more.

  • Siri Shortcuts and App Intents for voice capture and automation.

SEARCH

TRIAGE

  • Notive's signature 4-swipe inbox system: swipe to keep, archive, schedule, or delete.
