Studium

Studium is a private notebook for thinking by hand and turning notes into action.

Write naturally with Apple Pencil, organize pages into notebooks and folders, annotate imported PDFs, and keep supporting material beside the page where it belongs. Add photos, textboxes and Voice Notes without leaving your workspace.

Keep PDF books in Media Library, read them alongside a linked notebook, and save highlighted passages with links back to their source page. Use your own single-page PDF templates when creating notebook pages.

Find your work again with local handwriting recognition, photo text recognition, on-device transcription, tags and focused search filters. When a note contains a date or time, Studium can prepare a calendar suggestion for you to review and edit. Nothing is added to Calendar until you confirm it.

Your notes stay under your control:

• Local-first storage with no account required
• No advertising, tracking, analytics or remote note processing
• On-device handwriting recognition, OCR and supported speech transcription
• Automatic recovery copies in a Files location you choose
• On-demand exports to external storage, a Mac or NAS, or iCloud Drive
• Explicit controls for Voice Notes, transcripts, recognized text and local data

Studium is designed for iPad and Apple Pencil.
