Notational Velocity is a modeless, mouseless Mac OS X note-taking application where searching and creating notes share a single incremental-search interface. Notes are stored instantly with optional encryption and can sync with Simplenote or plain-text files in Dropbox.
Use cases
- take notes quickly without leaving the keyboard
- instantly search across all note contents
- create a note by typing its title and pressing return
- sync notes with Simplenote or Dropbox plain-text files
- keep notes encrypted on disk
When to choose
- you want a fast, keyboard-only note-taking workflow on macOS
- you prefer plain-text notes with external file access
- you want search-as-the-primary-interface note management
When to avoid
- you need a modern, actively developed app with rich formatting
- you are not on macOS (especially 10.7 or earlier for the last binary)
- you need images, attachments, or WYSIWYG editing
