Your scratchpad,
always one keystroke
away.

WhimNotes app screenshot

Built for speed. Designed to disappear.

Instant Global Hotkey

From any app, any Space, any moment. WhimNotes surfaces immediately — and disappears just as fast with the same shortcut.

One-Time Reminders

Set a reminder straight from your scratchpad. A native Mac notification fires when it's time — no third-party services involved.

Truly Native

Compiled directly to machine code. No runtime, no interpreter, no cold start. It's just fast.

Low RAM Usage

Lighter than a browser tab. WhimNotes sits silently in the background at a fraction of the cost of Electron apps.

Three keystrokes. That's it.

Step 01

Press the shortcut

WhimNotes appears instantly over whatever you're working on — floating, focused, and ready for input.

Step 02

Type your thought

A task, a link, an idea, a code snippet. No categories, no folders, no structure required. Just type.

Step 03

Press again to hide

WhimNotes disappears and your original window is back in focus — exactly as you left it.
