Description

Tot is an elegant, simple way to collect & edit text across your Mac, iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch. It’s your tiny text companion! ⁕ Less Is More Tot’s single window design and simple formatting controls mean no more hunting for that chunk of text. Seven color-coded dots let you organize your notes while keeping them from getting out of hand. ⁕ Dark / Light Mode Designed to look stunning both day and night, Tot takes full advantage of iOS and macOS themes. ⁕ Small Footprint Stays out of the way on the desktop with minimal chrome and can even be controlled via the Menu bar. On mobile, each dot is just a swipe away. ⁕ iCloud Sync Seamlessly syncs your text across iOS and macOS using iCloud so you can capture thoughts wherever you are. ⁕ Markdown Support Full support for rich or plain text and even automatically translates text to Markdown for handy use on the web. Have an RTF file you need marked up? No problem! ⁕ Killer Keyboard Tot puts common text operations on the keyboard and keeps track of word and character counts as you type. Available for macOS, iOS, and watchOS.

  • love it, but i need widgets

    tot is a cute little low-tech digital to-do-list notepad that really helps me get what i need to get done but I have some ideas for quality of life improvements that would 100% make me buy it: 1) large, interactive widget. this is the main thing. (in addition to the floating window, not as a replacement.) 2) the ability to format a checklist or indent in bulk through highlighting. as it is now, if i copy and paste in a list from somewhere, i have to also individually put in every little check box. the same applies to indents. (which is part of a paid feature, but i’m unsure how that one works yet, as i don’t have the premium version yet) 3) the ability to turn at least one of the little nodes (can also be a widget? idk) into an optional calendar that i can put to-do’s on. literally, just like, one long table with the dates just above a line that says “april 20, 2026, thursday” or whatever. as simple as possible. I have so many things to do on different day, so I’ve resorted to a text version of this on my first node to get my assignments done 4) for the widget to automatically (or manually, idek) updates and shows me my to-do list lines according to the date. that would be FANTASTIC 4) more checkbox shapes. love those little guys. these can be premium features. i would understand. thank you tot developers, i love you and that is all

    These guys have been producing incredible work for must be 20+ years. Bravo. This app is exactly what a note program should be in every way - elegant, simple and intuitive.
  • The collection agency

    Tot is a beautifully designed app, and its presence on both the Mac and iPhone makes it incredibly useful. I think of it as a collection agency: a place to stash links and bits of info for future use. Especially helpful to anyone still in the world of the blog-o-sphere.
  • Useful and clean.

    I love this little app. I use the Mac version constantly, and the iPhone version occasionally. Perfect for jotting little notes that you want easily accessible.
  • Great for juggling working with coding agents

    I juggle several terminal-based coding agents like Claude Code, and having a stickies-like finite scratchpad like Tot makes it tremendously easy to keep multiple prompts queued up and keep straight separate task lists for each project I’m bouncing between. Strongly recommend when you need an easily-accessible place to write and retrieve text while working with an app that can’t offer that itself

    This app is so great I simply don’t know what I’d do without it. I don’t use it every day, but it is my perfect multi-platform, perfect syncing scratchpad. The new version is awesome. I really like the updates. Thank you very much!
  • Let us have more dots

    A useful app that I use every day. I wish I could add more dots if I wanted to. I’m an adult, I can handle it, let me make my own decision about clutter.
  • My Goto App for quick text

    This app does text capture well. Very Well. At first I was put off by the limited number of files - but I quickly found that limitation to be a feature not a bug. The 2.0 update adds some nice touches. I am already loving the text dividers. The share sheet integration is Fantastic. Many apps allow sharing to the clipboard as well as various apps. What I’ve found is that many apps when shared to the clipboard will share a shorter version, but they share a more robust version to certain apps, and Tot seems to get the best share version. I’ve made Tot my #1 share destination and have dedicated a Dot just to sharing.
