Notes for where you are

Write it once, find it again the moment you're back: notes sorted by distance, with optional alerts for a place, a chain or a whole category.

Free for Android and iPhone. No account, no ads, nothing to buy.

How it works

Write it down
A door code, a Wi-Fi password, what you always order. Tacky attaches where you are; picking another place is optional.
Come back
Open Tacky at that spot again, days or months later.
It's at the top
Notes are sorted by distance, so the ones for right here come first.

Sorted by distance
Closest notes first, and “Here now” for everything that belongs to where you're standing.
Saved places
Home, the office, the gym, a parent's house: save them once and reuse them across notes.
Alerts when you arrive
A notification when you arrive at or leave a note's place, or pass any branch of a chain or any supermarket, even one you've never visited.
Private notes
Lock notes behind your screen lock, fingerprint or face. Their content is stored encrypted on your phone.
Built from pieces
Mix titles, text, checklists, photos and links, and rearrange them easily on a phone screen.
Export and import
Back up your notes, places, alerts and photos to one file whenever you like, and import it again later.

No Tacky account. Your notes live on your phone.
No ads, no analytics, no tracking.
Optional sync between your devices goes to your own Google Drive (Android) or iCloud (iPhone and iPad), encrypted on your device first. We never see your notes.
Background location is used only for the alerts you turn on, and Tacky keeps no history of where you've been.
