Pasteline is an app for quickly saving notes, quotes, and links. Add a note is as easy as text a message in your favorite messenger. Tap to Paste button to save your clipboard information as a note. The app is available on iPhone and Mac.
@chrismessina We'd like Pasteline to be more like itself and get away from feature-rich apps like Evernote. Our idea is that Pasteline is great if you need to save something quickly or a very small text or link. For everything else, there are tons of other great apps for notes.
Seems promising! With this type of quick input, search is really key for surfacing the quick notes you added later. Operators would be helpful for notes with links, etc. Currently it seems like the search does not return links at all. When you do add images also, using Apple's image indexing to search the screenshot content is a huge benefit of Notes.app currently. Would love to see that here. Another useful function in notes apps, is the ability to quickly throw up a note as a read-only web link (that also could be a nice paid feature).
@jud5on thank you for your great feedback! We are already working on some features right now like Quick Note and tray menu popup. And we hope that soon we will be able to add some features that will make using the app even more useful.
Hello Product Hunt! 👋
Today, I and @extnous super excited to finally introduce Pasteline, an app for quickly saving notes.
I love the Apple Notes app. I use it every day to save different notes. It's great app and gives me a ton of options. I also sometimes use other great apps for notes for work projects.
But I often have a need to save some information quickly. And I don't have time to think about where to save it, so I save to a ready note at the top of list. And so time after time, I save various information wherever I can. As a result my notes don't look the best and it becomes more and more difficult to find the information I need. One note can contain a lot of different information and it is almost impossible to sort it.
So my team and I developed Pasteline app for Mac OS and iOS. I noticed that people use messengers a lot and are very used to this format. And very often users create chats with themselves where they drop different information and links which they want to save as quickly. So we decided to use a similar format for Pasteline.
Adding a note in Pasteline is as easy as text a message in your favorite messenger. All notes are always visible and have a message view. There is no need to open each one individually, which makes reading and searching much easier. If there is any information on the clipboard, you can easily paste it as a one-click note. Or use Cmd + V combination for Mac. Folders make it easy to sort notes by topic, and smart folders help you see all notes of the same type.
I can say with confidence that Apple Notes is a great product, and does 100% of its job, as do a number of other great apps. But if you need to add a quick note, Pasteline will save you a huge amount of time and keep the information you need at your fingertips.
This is only the first version and we have a lot more ideas to add. But we already like the result very much, and we are happy to use Pasteline for the last few months.
What we plan to add in future versions:
• Creating projects and sorting folders by project;
• Adding tags for notes;
• Formatting text in notes;
• Changing a folder icon;
• Saving images;
• New smart folders;
• Drag&Drop for notes and folders;
• New color schemes for the app;
• Pin notes on top;
• Password (Face Id) protected folders and app;
• Ability to disable synchronization for individual folders;
• Quick Note from anywhere with shortcuts and tray icon for Mac;
• And much, much more.
I really hope you like the app. And I'd love any feedback and suggestions you have.
@colin_smith_ezchile_ subscription is required only for the sync and sharing folders for collaboration. We use servers to do this. All local functions are completely free.
@gregory_wehmeyer Thanks! Pasteline Pro allows you to share folders with other users and sync notes between devices. Otherwise, the free version has no limitations. In the future, we plan to expand more collaboration opportunities. And for this we already have to use our own servers.
@theeugenel Ok. If you do, feel free to ping me closer to it being deployed. There may be interest from some of our customers to have a tool like this available to them.
