Apple Notes is great on iPhone — but it doesn't work on Windows, Android, or Linux. Simple Notes works everywhere.
Apple Notes is excellent within the Apple ecosystem. It's fast, reliable, and deeply integrated with iOS and macOS. But the moment you step outside Apple's world — a Windows PC at work, an Android phone, a Linux laptop — you're locked out. Simple Notes is the cross-platform alternative that works anywhere you have a browser.
