ねたはこ

About

netahako is an idea box for people who write. Jot down whatever comes to mind, one card at a time, and keep it all in one place. The name comes from the Japanese "neta-hako" — a box for stashing ideas. Capture ideas on the go with your iPhone, then spread them out on the larger screen of your iPad or Mac to sort, arrange, and grow them. Great for story plots, blog topics, and project notes. FREE TO START - Use up to 3 notebooks and 30 cards in total for free (cards in "Scrapped Ideas" don't count) - Unlock the full version with a one-time in-app purchase to remove the limits - One purchase works on iPhone, iPad, and Mac: unlock it on one device, and the others are unlocked too with the same Apple ID. Family Sharing is supported - If you go over the free limits, your data is never deleted. You can always view, edit, copy, delete, and reorder — only creating new notebooks or cards is paused SYNCS WITH iCLOUD - The same notebooks stay in sync across iPhone, iPad, and Mac (using iCloud Drive) - No account to create — just be signed in to iCloud - Cards you add, edit, or delete on one device show up on the others - Works perfectly well on a single device without iCloud, too WHAT YOU CAN DO - Collect ideas one by one, like index cards (on Mac, press Cmd+Enter to save quickly) - Organize cards into notebooks, with colored tabs (iPhone and iPad) - List view, plus a free-form Board view where you can place cards anywhere (iPad and Mac) — "Tidy" lines them up neatly - Cards grow automatically to fit long text - A copied card gets a folded corner, so you can see at a glance which ideas you've already used - Deleted cards go to "Scrapped Ideas", where you can rescue them later - Keyword search - Light and Dark mode - Automatic backups - Export and import your data - Available in Japanese, English, Chinese, French, Spanish, and Korean - Open the app with one tap from Control Center on iPhone (iOS 18 or later) DIFFERENCES BY DEVICE - iPhone: a lightweight version for capturing ideas quickly (add, list, edit, search, switch notebooks) - iPad and Mac: the full feature set (Board, Tidy, reordering notebooks, and more) PRIVACY The developer collects no data at all.
