Description
People don't dream of better note apps. They dream of mental clarity.
Perenne Note is a minimalist note taking app designed for iPad and Apple Pencil. It doesn't try to replace your entire workflow. It's a digital notebook — the kind you'd toss in your bag, open at a café, and fill with notes, sketches, and lists. No infinite canvas. No AI features. No productivity theater. Just paper, a pen, and your ideas.
DESIGNED FOR APPLE PENCIL
Write and draw with Apple Pencil using three tools: a pen for clean handwriting, a pencil that feels like real graphite on paper, and a highlighter for emphasis. Powered by Perenne Engine — our custom-built rendering engine that captures every nuance of Apple Pencil tilt and pressure for strokes that feel natural and alive. Each tool includes adjustable width, opacity, and line style — solid, dashed, or dotted. Pick any color with the built-in eyedropper. Switch between writing and reading mode so your palm never leaves accidental marks.
PERENNE ENGINE — BUILT FROM SCRATCH
We didn't use Apple's default drawing framework. Perenne Engine is a custom Metal-based rendering pipeline designed specifically for this app. Real scanned graphite textures. Paper grain that interacts with your strokes. Pressure-sensitive opacity that mimics a real HB pencil. Every stamp, every pixel, rendered in real time at full Retina resolution. The result: ink that feels handmade, not digital.
NOTEBOOKS THAT FEEL REAL
Create notebooks with custom 3D covers — choose from 10 colors and 5 textures: leather, linen, smooth, canvas, or denim. Choose your paper: blank, ruled, grid, or dotted, at three scales. Select from 7 background tones, from pure white to dark charcoal. Each notebook holds up to 100 pages. Flip through pages in landscape spreads or scroll one page at a time in portrait. Bookmark important pages with colored tabs and labels.
THE DESK — YOUR CREATIVE WORKSPACE
The space around your notebook is alive. Drag sticky notes, photos, and text boxes off the page onto the desk — they float outside the notebook and stay visible while you work. Keep reference images nearby, jot ideas on sticky notes, or place labels around your pages. It feels like a real desk around a physical notebook.
MORE THAN JUST INK
Add sticky notes to capture thoughts — write, draw, rotate, and resize them. Import photos from your gallery or take one with the camera. Draw directly on photos. Insert text boxes with formatting: bold, italic, underline, fonts, sizes, and colors. Everything can be moved, scaled, and rotated freely — on the page or on the desk.
YOUR NOTEBOOK LIBRARY
Organize notebooks in grid or list view, search by title, and reorder quickly from the context menu.
EXPORT AND SHARE
Export any page or full notebook as PDF or PNG — ready for printing, archiving, or sharing.
SYNC ACROSS DEVICES
Your notebooks sync automatically with iCloud. Start on one iPad and continue on another. A visible sync indicator keeps you informed.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No accounts, no tracking. Your notes stay on your device and sync securely through Apple's private iCloud.
