Where do your notes actually live?
Usually on the company's server, which, to be fair, is how they sync so smoothly.
Catchlight has no server. Takes are encrypted on your phone and the files go into a cloud folder you already own.
Did you know where yours were?

What happens to your notes if you stop paying?
In about 23,700 public reviews of 16 notes and task apps, read since August, price is a tenth of the bad ones, the sharpest about notes already written.
Catchlight's a subscription too. Stop paying and every Take stays readable and exportable.

I use words, rather than a password, for a fairly boring and somewhat obvious, reason.
A password you invent tends to be one you've used before. Twelve random words, made on your phone, carry far more variety.
The trade is there's no reset. Would you take that deal?

What makes you stop using a notes app?
Usually it's the app wanting something, a type to pick, a folder to choose, a bright white page at 11 at night.
The best app is the boring one you actually use. Which one have you stuck with longest?
