SpotNote in Chrome with OffiDocs

DESCRIPTION

Take quick notes and manage todos while browsing

Spotnote is a minimalist note-taking/todo list app that lives in your browser, allowing you to take a quick note or create a todo from any tab while retaining the context and URL.

Spotnote will not be useful for you unless you're like me. It's not meant to be a replacement for more robust tools like Notion or Evernote. Think of it more like a safety net in your browser for your pop-up thoughts.

You might find Spotnote useful if…
➤ You have a short memory span so if you don't write down the note or todo immediately, it's gone.
➤ You need context for your notes or todos (because you tend to forget).
➤ You want to have the direct URL of the email or tab you took the note from for easy access.
➤ You consider yourself organized chaos.
➤ You live on the browser, usually with an ungodly amount of tabs open.
➤ You want a quick way to write down passing thoughts without disturbing your flow.
➤ You work in an environment that requires you to remember to do something by a certain time or follow up with someone (I'm a project manager).

----------------------------------------

Why Spotnote exists:
➤ Most note-taking apps or todo lists require you to open another window which disrupts your flow.
➤ Most todo lists do not retain the context of where the item came about, no browser URL retention.
➤ Other apps are either too complex or too limited (e.g., Notion is too clunky, Apple Notes is too limited).

----------------------------------------

Personal note:
I work as a digital project manager and I made this extension so the tiny things don't slip through the cracks. I felt that there is too much unnecessary friction in navigating to another app like Notion, Apple Notes, or a physical todo list. Additionally, these other apps don't save the context or the URLs so I often forget why I took the note.

I personally use Spotnote daily at work and I hope you will find it useful too.
Best of luck,
Zi
