## Description

Think on paper, on your iPad. 
Try one endless canvas free. 
Keep separate canvases and export to PDF with a one-time Pro purchase. 
No subscription.

BarePaper is an iPad app for thinking by hand.
A paper-textured background. An endless canvas. A quiet place to put feelings, thoughts, and unfinished ideas into words.

Use it for freeform journaling, morning writing, exploring an idea, or working through a question. Spend less time managing the page and more time thinking on it.

KEEP THINKING, WITHOUT TURNING THE PAGE
Add the next thought beside the last, or keep going below it. The endless canvas gives your thinking room to unfold without starting a new page.

A QUIET PLACE TO FOCUS
A paper-textured background and a simple pen, with a minimal interface that keeps the focus on your thoughts.

MAKE TIME TO WRITE
Set the built-in timer and give yourself time to write. A subtle notification lets you know when your time is up.

WRITE FOR YOURSELF
No account required. Enable app lock to protect access to the app. BarePaper is your own private space to think.

FREE AND PRO
- Free: write on one endless canvas.
- Pro: create unlimited canvases and export to PDF.
Pro is a one-time purchase. No subscription or recurring fees.

Start with a thought. Keep writing.
