Description

Mercury Notes is a fast and efficient note-taking application, designed with strong cross-compatible tagging functionality (for iOS & macOS only). It uses a highly streamlined interface to reduce any friction to writing down notes as quickly as possible.

History

As a long-time user of the macOS application Notational Velocity, Scott desperately wanted a modern mobile companion app that followed similar principles, and supported native file-system tags. After years of waiting and searching, he finally decided to just make it himself. He chose the name Mercury Notes after the Roman god Mercury – the fleet-footed messenger of the gods, as well as the alchemical element quicksilver.

Features

All created tags are compatible with macOS native tags, and can be located via macOS' Finder.
Synchronize your notes easily across all of your iCloud enabled devices.
All notes are stored in easy human readable files.
Super fast start up so you can write down your thoughts faster.
Utilizes Markdown for universal text formatting features.
