Inkling is a native notes app that lives in your MacBook's notch. Hover the notch or press Option-N, jot the thought down, and Command-Return tucks it away. A small companion called Ink gives a nod.

Notes, checklists and tables stay on your Mac, with optional iCloud sync.

$12 once, with a 24-hour free trial. Use it on up to 3 Macs.
