Capture fast. File later. Delete when done.
A scratchpad for temporary notes, not a replacement for Apple Notes.
Unlimited scratchpad tabs for temporary notes that stick around until you're done. iCloud sync on Mac and iPhone. Checklists, lists, and plain text. Capture fast, file later, delete when finished.

Built for temporary work
Stip is the in-between: more durable than a sticky note, less permanent than your real notes app.
iCloud sync
Your scratch pads persist locally and sync across Mac and iOS. Pick up on another device after a reboot.
Smart checklists
Toggle checkboxes, checkmarks, stars, circles, and more. Numbered lists, dashes, bold, and italic when you need structure.
Text only, on purpose
No images or attachments. Paste a file path, URL, or command. Lightweight notes you can copy elsewhere when ready.
Your notes survive a reboot
When you're setting up a server, debugging a deployment, or juggling half-formed ideas, jot down IP addresses, config snippets, paths, and to-dos, then move them to the right place and delete the Stip.
Start a Stip. Capture what you need. Move on when you're done.
When to use Stip
Great for
- Server and dev setup notes
- Config values and paths to copy later
- Short-lived project scratch pads
- Checklists for tasks you'll finish and discard
- Anything you'd write on a sticky note, but synced
Not for
- Rich media or photo archives
- Long-form journaling
- A permanent knowledge base
- Replacing Apple Notes or your filing system
Stip means dot
Each tab is a stip: a small colored dot in the sidebar marking a scratch pad. Rename, reorder, color-code, and delete Stips when the job is done.
