## Features

### Instant access, anywhere
Rest your pointer on the screen edge or hit the global shortcut. The panel is over your work before you finish the thought — no window management, no app switch.

### A real editor, not a scratchpad
Slash commands, headings, task lists, syntax-highlighted code blocks, inline images, colour and highlight. Your notes keep the structure your work has. Note content is stored as Markdown in a local database. Export it as .md files to use in other editors.

### Reminders that live inside the note
Set a reminder on a note — or on the exact sentence you selected. Overdue, today, upcoming and completed group into their own tab. Repeat daily or weekly, snooze straight from the notification, and click through to land back on the highlighted line.

### To-dos with a status, not just a tick box
Type /todo for a list whose lines carry a stage — backlog, in progress, in review, done — each with its own colour and icon. Click the icon to move a line along. Add statuses of your own in Settings, and they follow you to iPhone. The stage is stored in the note itself as plain text, so it travels with the file.

### Tags that cut across folders
Tag a note as you write, with autocomplete against the tags you already use so “meeting” doesn’t quietly become three. Filter by one tag or several at once — the list flattens across every folder, and each tag can carry a colour.

### Files live inside the note
Drop in a PDF, a zip, a design file — anything, up to 50 MB each. The file is copied into the note rather than linked to a path, so it is still there when the note reaches your other Mac, and when the original moves or gets deleted. Click a file to open it in its usual app; right-click to save a copy anywhere. Files come along when you export, in an assets folder next to the note.

### Take a note anywhere
Export a note, a quick page, a folder or your whole library as PDF, Markdown or plain text. PDFs are paginated and searchable. Markdown export creates .md files, copies images and attachments into an assets folder, and updates their links.

### Tables that survive the paste
Paste a table from a page or a document and it stays a table. Edit any cell, add rows and columns from the edge handles, delete them with a right-click, and drag the whole table somewhere else in the note. It is stored as plain Markdown.

### Emoji without leaving the keyboard
Start typing :fire and pick from the suggestions, or open the /emoji picker and search. It works in headings and anywhere else you are typing.

### Folders you can actually drag into
Create a note straight inside a folder from the folder’s context menu, or drag an existing note into it. The note shows its folder above the editor. Folders are flat; tags let you filter across them.

### The same notes on Mac and iPhone
Turn on iCloud sync on both devices to keep notes, folders, task statuses and reminders in your own iCloud account. Nothing passes through our servers. You can also write offline and sync when connected again.

### Lock a note behind a password
Some notes shouldn’t be readable by whoever opens your Mac. Lock one and its text, tags and attachments are encrypted with a key derived from your password — the plain text is deleted from disk, not just hidden from the list. Touch ID reopens it in a second; the vault closes again when your screen locks or after a few idle minutes.

### Native and light
A menu-bar app with a true vibrancy surface that follows system appearance. It feels like part of macOS because it is — no browser engine idling in your dock.

### Markdown underneath
Note content is stored as Markdown in a local database. Export it as .md files to use in other editors.

### A note on your desktop
Put a note in Notification Center and read it without opening anything. Pick the pinned note, the most recent one, a specific note or a quick-notes page — then click the widget and Flyout opens right there.

### The same notes, in your pocket.
A note you write on the Mac opens on your iPhone, and a line you catch on the phone comes back to the Mac — same iCloud account, same editor. The iPhone app is included when you buy Flyout here.

### Works offline, private by default
No account to use the app, and nothing leaves your Mac unless you turn on iCloud sync yourself — it is off by default.

### Fifteen named themes
Seven dark and eight light themes beyond the system Light/Dark pair. A named theme keeps its own colours even when macOS switches appearance.

### Per-note paper colours
Thirty-eight colours grouped by family, plus a custom colour you pick yourself. The coloured sheet ignores whichever app theme is active.

## Why Flyout
You already have somewhere to put a note. The problem is what happens to it there.

- An ordinary notes app: Rich enough — in another app, behind your editor, in a window you have to go find. By the time you dig it out, the thought’s gone.
- A scratchpad: Instant — and flat. The task list is just dashes, the screenshot never fit in the first place, the code loses its highlighting.
- Flyout: As fast as a scratchpad, with an editor that holds task lists, images, reminders and real code blocks — one gesture away from any app.

## Frequently asked questions

### Is there an iPhone app?
Yes. Buy Flyout here once and the same license unlocks Flyout on your Mac and iPhone. Sign in to the iPhone app with the email address used at checkout; if you enable iCloud sync, both apps use the same library through your own iCloud account. An iPhone-only purchase is also available through the App Store.

### Does it sync between Macs?
Yes. iCloud sync keeps your notes current across your Macs. It runs on your own iCloud account — nothing passes through our servers, and everything still works offline.

### Can I lock a note with a password?
Yes. Locking a note encrypts its text, tags and attachments with a key derived from your password, and the plain text is removed from the database rather than just hidden from the list. Touch ID reopens it; the vault relocks when your screen locks or after a few idle minutes. Locked notes are left out of exports, the widget and the copy commands. Flyout cannot reset your password — setup gives you a recovery code once, and that code is the only way back in if you forget it.

### Can I organise notes into folders?
Yes. Folders fold open right inside the notes list — drag a note onto one to file it, drag it back out to unfile it. They are flat by design: a note lives in exactly one folder, or none. Nesting is not supported. Tags cut across them: tag a note and filter the library by one tag or several at once.

### Can I attach files to a note?
Yes — any kind of file, up to 50 MB each. The file is copied into the note rather than linked to a path on disk, so it is still there when the note syncs to your other Mac, and when the original is moved or deleted. Click a file to open it in its usual app, or right-click to save a copy. Files with an extension macOS can execute are revealed in the Finder instead of opened, since a note can arrive from another device.

### Can I get my notes out?
Yes. Export a note, a quick page, a folder, or your whole library, as PDF, Markdown or plain text. Markdown exports carry images and attachments into an assets folder next to the file, with the links rewritten to point there — so the export opens correctly in any editor, not only in Flyout.

### Which macOS versions are supported?
macOS 14 Sonoma and later, on both Apple Silicon and Intel.

### Is it a subscription?
No. You pay once for the Mac and iPhone apps, including every future update to the Mac app. There is no renewal fee and no card is kept on file.

### Do reminders need an account?
No Flyout account is required. Notifications are scheduled on your device. If you enable iCloud sync, notes and reminder details sync through your own iCloud account; they never pass through our servers.

### How many devices can I use it on?
A license bought here covers five devices in total across Mac and iPhone. When you replace a device, deactivate the old one and activate the new one with the same license.

### What kind of app is Flyout?
Flyout is a native macOS menu-bar app: an always-available rich-text note panel that slides out from the edge of your screen. It is built for developers and anyone who writes — with code blocks, task lists, reminders and Markdown, one gesture from any app.

### Is there a notes app that slides out from the screen edge on Mac?
Yes — that is exactly what Flyout does. Nudge the right edge or press ⌥⌘N and a full editor flies out over your work, then slides away when you step back.

### I already use Raycast — do I need Flyout?
They do different jobs. Raycast Notes is a scratchpad built for capture: one text-only note at a time, in a window you dismiss. Flyout is built for the note that stays open beside your work — tabs and folders, images, code blocks, and reminders you can pin to a single line, syncing through your own iCloud. If you only jot and move on, Raycast Notes is enough and you have already paid for it. If notes live next to your work, that is the job Flyout does — there is a full, honest comparison on our compare page.

## How to keep code snippets and notes together on Mac
A saved command is more useful when you know why you saved it. Keep the problem, the code and the result in one note so you can return to it without reconstructing the whole investigation. Here is a small example you can adapt in Flyout.

### 1. Write the problem before the code
Give the note a title you would recognise a week later. Add the symptom, where you saw it and what you expected. A note called “Date-only booking shifts back a day” is easier to find than “JavaScript snippet”.
Use a library note if you want to organise the investigation with folders and tags. A quick page works for temporary scratch work.
```
# Date-only booking shifts back a day

Observed: the booking summary shows the previous date.
Expected: a date-only booking keeps the calendar date entered.
Next check: compare the stored value with the display formatter.
```

### 2. Put the snippet in a code block
On an empty line, type /code and select Code block. Paste the snippet into that block and choose its language from the block’s language control. Keep your explanation in ordinary paragraphs around it.
This example inspects the stored date value. It is text to save and run in your own development environment; Flyout does not execute it.
```
const storedDate = '2026-09-07';
console.log({ storedDate });
// Inspect the display formatter separately.
```

### 3. Keep the next check in the same note
Below the block, type /todo for a task with a status. Mark the formatter check as in progress; move it to in review when a proposed fix needs a second look. Use /check for a simple done-or-not checklist.
Write down the actual result when you run the check. A code block records the snippet; the surrounding note records what you learned.
```
- [in-progress] Check the display formatter
- [todo] Test the same booking in another time zone
- [todo] Record the result and link the fix
```

### 4. Keep the note beside your editor
Open Flyout with ⌥⌘N and use the pushpin at the top of the panel to keep it open. Click back into your editor and work from the note. Click the pushpin again when you want the panel to hide as you move away.
Use a reminder on the note or a selected line if the next step belongs later in the day. A task status describes progress; a reminder tells you when to return.

### 5. Export it or continue on iPhone
Flyout stores note content as Markdown in its local database. Export the note as Markdown when you want a file for a repository or another editor. A task marker such as - [in-progress] remains readable text; another Markdown app may not display Flyout’s status icons.
For the same library on Mac and iPhone, enable iCloud sync in Flyout on both devices using the same Apple Account. The web license includes iPhone access. Sync is optional and is separate from license activation.

### When to use a different tool
Use a snippet manager or editor feature when you need text expansion, parameterised templates or code execution. Use a file-based editor when the note must already be a .md file inside your repository. Flyout fits a different step: quickly capturing a snippet with its explanation and next action in the screen-edge panel.

## How to track tasks inside a note on Mac
Some work needs more than a tick box. A draft may be started, waiting for review or finished. In Flyout, those states can live beside the instructions, code and images in the same note. Start with three tasks and give each one a clear next step.

### 1. Choose a checklist or a status list
Type /check on an empty line for a checklist: an item is unchecked or checked. Type /todo for a task list with named statuses. Both list types can appear in the same note.
Flyout includes six task statuses: Backlog, To-do, In progress, In review, Done and Cancelled. Choose a status by clicking the icon beside a task.

### 2. Give three tasks three different states
Create a note called “Publish the help update”. Put the purpose above the tasks: explain panel pinning without confusing it with a starred note. Then add the tasks below.
In progress means the writing is under way. In review means the work is ready to be checked. Done means that particular task is finished. These states describe the work; they do not assign it to another person.
```
# Publish the help update

Explain panel pinning and the library star.

- [in-progress] Write the setup steps
- [in-review] Check the menu names
- [done] Choose the example note
```

### 3. Add a status that matches your work
Open Flyout’s settings and select Tasks. Add a custom status such as “Waiting for reply”, then choose the group it belongs to. Use a group for unfinished work while you are still waiting.
The five groups are Backlog, Planned, Started, Completed and Cancelled. Groups determine whether work counts as open or closed; the status name can describe the specific stage. Custom definitions can sync when iCloud sync is enabled.

### 4. Find the notes that still have work
In the library, use the open-task filter to show notes with unfinished status tasks. Open a matching note to see its context and choose the next action.
The filter finds notes; it does not turn them into a shared project board. Keep the instructions next to the tasks so you can understand the work when you return.

### 5. Finish a task without deleting its context
Set a task to Done when it is complete, or Cancelled when you are no longer doing it. Leave its explanation in the note so you can see what happened later. Add a reminder separately if you need a notification at a particular time.
On iPhone, open the same synced note and tap a task’s status icon to update it. Enable iCloud sync on both devices first and wait for the note to arrive before editing it in two places.

### What stays in an exported Markdown file?
The status is written into the task line, for example - [in-progress] Write the setup steps. Ordinary checkboxes use - [ ] and - [x]. A custom status uses its own key.
These markers remain readable when you export the note. Another editor may show them as plain text rather than Flyout’s icons and menus. The exported note is useful on its own; the visual task controls belong to Flyout.

## Free option: keep a Stickies note on top
For a separate note window beside your work, start with the Stickies app included with macOS.
1. Open Stickies and choose File › New Note. Write the details you need to keep visible.
2. With that note selected, choose Window › Float on Top.
3. Switch to your other app. Keep Stickies open; repeat the menu command when you no longer want the note on top.
Flyout uses one screen-edge panel with multiple notes. Stickies gives you separate note windows.
[Apple’s Stickies instructions](https://support.apple.com/guide/stickies/welcome/mac)

## Keep the Flyout panel open while you work
Use this for a checklist beside a form, a booking reference or instructions you need to consult.
1. Open Flyout from the screen edge or press ⌥⌘N, the default shortcut. Select a note or write in a quick page.
2. Click the pushpin button at the top of the panel, labelled “Pin panel”. It becomes highlighted.
3. Click your browser or another app and continue working. The pinned panel stays open.
4. Click the pushpin again to release it. Move the pointer away to let the panel hide.
The star pins a note in your library; the pushpin keeps the panel open. Flyout has one panel, not a separate desktop window for each note.

## Open a note with a keyboard shortcut
Choose the shortcut that fits the app you use.
1. For Apple Notes, press Fn-Q (or Globe-Q). A Quick Note opens; the default is to return to your last Quick Note.
2. For Flyout, press ⌥⌘N. The panel opens with your current note or quick page, so you can continue writing.
3. To change Flyout’s shortcut, open its settings from the menu bar and select the keyboard shortcut section.
Opening the panel does not create a new note every time. Use the new-note button or add a quick page when you want a separate document.
[Apple’s Quick Note instructions](https://support.apple.com/guide/notes/create-a-quick-note-apdf028f7034/mac)

## Open the same note on Mac and iPhone
The license unlocks the app; iCloud sync is a separate setting and starts off.
1. Use the same Apple Account for iCloud on both devices. Install Flyout on your Mac and the Flyout iPhone app.
2. Turn on iCloud sync in Flyout’s settings on each device. If the app asks to restart, restart it.
3. Create a short test note on one device, then check the library on the other. Allow the first sync to finish before editing the same note on both devices.
If the note has not arrived, check the sync status and connection on both devices. Do not delete the source note or reinstall to force a sync. Your local version histories are separate and do not sync.

## Restore an earlier version of a note
For example, if a paragraph was replaced, check the history on the device where that paragraph was present.
1. On Mac, right-click the note in the library or a quick-page tab and choose “Version history”. On iPhone, use the note’s ⋯ menu or long-press the quick-page tab.
2. Find a saved entry by its date and first-line preview, then choose “Restore”.
3. Confirm the replacement, then check the note. Restoring changes the current content; with sync enabled, that restored content can also reach your other devices.
History is local to each device and is pruned to at most 20 versions per note and 30 days. It is not a record of every keystroke or a full backup. Locked notes do not keep version history.

## Help and troubleshooting

### I installed Flyout but nothing happens when I open it
Flyout has no window of its own and no Dock icon: it lives in the menu bar and slides in from the edge of your screen. Nudge your pointer against the right edge of the screen, or press ⌥⌘N from anywhere. You can switch the edge, change the shortcut or show a Dock icon in Settings, which you reach from the Flyout icon in the menu bar.

### I see a blank or welcome page instead of my notes
Check Flyout on the device where you wrote the notes. If iCloud sync was enabled, confirm that both devices use the same Apple Account and have sync turned on in Flyout. Check the sync status before changing anything. If sync was off, the notes stay on the original device. Entering a license does not move or erase notes.

### I moved to a new Mac or reinstalled Flyout. Where are my notes?
If the original device had iCloud sync enabled, use the same Apple Account and enable sync in Flyout on the new Mac. Wait for the first sync and check its status. If sync was off, the notes remain on the original device; reinstalling does not create a cloud copy.

### I forgot my lock password
Use the recovery code you were given when you set the lock up: on the unlock screen, try your password twice and a “Use recovery code” button appears. If the code is gone too, the encrypted notes cannot be recovered by anyone, including us — Settings › Lock › Reset the lock clears the vault so you can start again; those notes move to the Trash unreadable. If your password is definitely correct but nothing opens, check Settings › Lock for a “Two locks found” warning: two Macs can each set up a lock before they sync with one another, and notes locked on the other Mac only open there.

### Touch ID does not unlock my notes
Touch ID is a shortcut for the password, not a replacement, so the password always works. The stored key is deliberately dropped whenever the Mac’s fingerprint records change, so after adding or removing a fingerprint you will be asked for the password once and Touch ID resumes afterwards. You can also switch it off in Settings › Lock, which deletes the key kept on this Mac.

### I can’t export or copy a locked note
That is deliberate: exporting or copying would write the note back out as plain text, which is the one thing the lock exists to prevent. Locked notes are also left out of the widget. Remove the lock on the note (Settings › Lock also has “Remove every lock” for all of them at once) and everything works normally again.

### How do I move my license to another Mac?
On the old Mac, open Settings › License and choose Deactivate this Mac to free the seat. Then enter your key on the new Mac. One license covers five devices across Mac and iPhone by default.

### I lost my license key
Go to the recovery page and enter the email you bought with. We resend your key to that address.

### My trial ended. How do I buy?
Buy a license at getflyout.app. It is a one-time purchase, not a subscription, and your notes and settings stay exactly as they were.

## Privacy Policy
Flyout is a Mac and iPhone app that keeps your notes on your own devices. This page explains the little that leaves them.

### Your notes stay on your devices
Notes, quick pages, images, files and reminders are stored on your Mac and iPhone with SwiftData. There is no Flyout account, no telemetry and no analytics SDK inside the app. We cannot read your notes because we never receive them.
Reminders are scheduled by your own device, through the notification system in macOS or iOS. They are not sent to a server.

### iCloud sync is optional
Sync stays off until you turn it on in Settings. Once it is on, your notes travel through your own iCloud account — Apple’s CloudKit private database — so your Mac and iPhone show the same library. They pass through Apple, never through us: we run no server that holds notes and have no way to read them. What happens inside iCloud is covered by Apple’s privacy terms.
Locked notes are encrypted on your device before they are stored or synced. The key is derived from your vault password and stays in your device’s Keychain. If you lose both the password and the recovery code, nobody can open those notes — us included.

### Flyout for Chrome
Flyout for Chrome runs only when you click its toolbar button or choose one of its context-menu commands. It reads the active page’s title and URL and, when you select text, that selection. You choose the destination and review or edit the Markdown before saving.
The extension sends the capture through Chrome Native Messaging directly to Flyout on the same Mac. Captured content is not sent to us or to a third party. The extension has no advertising, analytics, background page monitoring or remote code.

### What we store when you buy
When you buy on this site, our payment processor (Stripe) handles the payment and shares your email address and name with us. We store your email, your name, the generated license key and the purchase date so we can deliver the key and re-send it if you lose it.
When you buy inside the iPhone app, Apple handles the payment and does not give us your email address. If you ask us to email you a license key, you type the address yourself and we store it next to the purchase identifier Apple gives us, for the same reason: delivering the key.
We never see or store your card details. Stripe and Apple process them under their own privacy policies.

### Device activation
A license key can be activated on five devices. To count them, the app sends an irreversible SHA-256 hash of a device identifier — never the raw identifier — along with the device name you already see in your system settings, such as “Anna’s MacBook Pro”, so the list means something to you. The hash lets us count seats; it cannot be turned back into anything that identifies your machine.
You can release a seat at any time from Settings › License, which deletes that activation record.

### Updates
On the Mac, if automatic updates are enabled, the app periodically requests our update feed. That request carries the information any web request carries — your IP address and the app version. We do not build profiles from it.
On iPhone, updates come from the App Store. The app never contacts us about them.

### This website
getflyout.app uses cookieless analytics: Cloudflare Web Analytics, Ahrefs Web Analytics, and a first-party counter of our own that records which buttons are clicked and which site you arrived from. None of them set cookies, follow you across other sites, or store your name or email address. That is also why you never see a consent banner here.

### Your rights and how to reach us
You can ask us to delete your purchase record at any time. Note that deleting it means we can no longer re-send your license key.
Write to hello@getflyout.app for any privacy question, data export or deletion request.

## Terms of Sale
These terms cover buying and using Flyout. Buying the app means you accept them.

### What you are buying
A perpetual, non-exclusive license to use Flyout on up to five devices in total across Mac and iPhone that you own or control. The license never expires: the version you have keeps working for as long as it runs on your system.
The license is personal. You may not resell, sublicense or share your key.

### Updates
Your purchase includes the Flyout apps for Mac and iPhone, plus every future update to the Mac app. There is no renewal fee, no subscription, and no card is kept on file.
Mac updates are delivered through the app’s built-in updater for as long as we publish them; iPhone updates come through the App Store. Flyout for other platforms, including iPad, is not included unless we say otherwise.

### Trial
Flyout runs unrestricted for 7 days before a license is required. The trial needs no account and no payment details.

### Refunds and EU withdrawal right
We offer a 14-day refund, no questions asked. Write to hello@getflyout.app with the email you bought with.
If you are a consumer in the European Union or the United Kingdom, you have a statutory 14-day right of withdrawal for digital content. Because the license key is delivered immediately, you consent to immediate delivery at checkout; we honour the 14-day refund regardless.

### Prices and tax
Prices are in US dollars. Where required, VAT or sales tax is calculated and shown by Stripe at checkout and remitted by us.
The launch price is an introductory price and ends on 30 September 2026, after which it rises to the list price. Licenses bought at the launch price are not downgraded when the price changes.

### No warranty, limited liability
Flyout is provided "as is". To the maximum extent allowed by law, our liability is limited to the amount you paid for the license. Nothing here limits liability that cannot be limited by law, including your statutory consumer rights.
Your notes live on your Mac. Keep backups — Time Machine or any backup tool covers Flyout like any other app.
