Core features
Every feature you need. Nothing you do not.
Three things done very well, so you never reach for a louder app for what should be a small note.
Everything else
Quiet on the outside. Complete on the inside.
The few things you actually want from a notes app, done with care.
Offline first
Capture without signal. Notes stay on device until you reconnect, then sync silently.
Attach photos
A few seconds with the camera and a sentence. A memory you would have otherwise lost.
Private by default
Your moments belong to you. No ads, no training data, no third-party feeds.
Instant search
Find a moment by a single word months later. Search works across all your devices.
iOS, Android, Web
Native mobile apps and a fast web app, all powered by the same lifetime account.
Light tagging
Tag if you want, ignore tags if you do not. Works either way without judging.
Save your first moment in 30 seconds.
Pay once, use forever. NowStack costs $19.99 and stays out of your way for life.
Reviews
Loved by people who value their moments.
A few words from people using NowStack every day.
“Finally a notes app that disappears.”
NowStack feels like a friend who knows when to be quiet. I just open it, write, and close. That is it.
“Beats every voice memo app.”
I used to record voice notes I never listened to. Now I type a sentence and I actually go back to read them.
“The capture screen is perfect.”
Open, write, save. No tagging, no folder picker, no AI. Just my words and the time. Brilliant.
“The timeline view is gold.”
Scrolling through my own past in chronological order is more powerful than any productivity hack.

What exactly is NowStack?
NowStack is a simple way to save quick notes about your life, thoughts, and moments. No noise, no algorithm. Just your timeline, preserved.
How much does it cost?
One-time payment of $19.99. No subscriptions, no upgrades, no hidden charges.
Can I use it without the mobile app?
Yes. Sign in on the web app with the same email code flow and access your timeline anywhere.
Is there a free trial?
You can browse the web app and explore the interface before buying. The mobile app unlocks after a single in-app purchase.
Is my data private?
Yes. Your moments are private to your account. We do not show ads, do not sell data, and do not train models on your notes.
Does it work offline?
Yes. Capture without signal and NowStack syncs once you reconnect.
What if I do not like it?
Email us within 14 days and we will refund without asking why. We would rather have someone happy than reluctant.
Do you offer team accounts?
NowStack is built for individuals. If you want a team product, reach out and we will let you know if we build one.
Which devices are supported?
iPhone, iPad, Android, and any modern browser. One purchase, all platforms.
Can I export my notes?
Yes. You can export a full archive of your timeline as JSON or plain text from the web app at any time.
Who built this?
Built solo by Melvynx in Bali. Reach out at https://twitter.com/melvyn_me or support@nowstack.app.
Will it stay this simple?
Yes. We add features only when they make capturing or finding a moment quieter. If a feature would shout, it does not ship.
