Notes, reminders, notebook, and floating post-it
NexoPad does not treat notes as plain text: they can become snippets, reminders, clips, or floating windows.
The notes system is the heart of the product. From here come snippets, reminders, the full notebook, the trash, and the floating post-it.
If you learn only one part of NexoPad, make it this one: once you understand notes, almost everything else becomes easier.
What you can do inside the notes editor
- Assign title, content, category, tags, workspace, and
shortcut. - Use rich formatting: lists, links, image URLs, tables, emoji, code blocks, inline code, and auto links.
- Work with alignment, colors, highlighting, fonts, HTML view, find and replace, and typewriter mode.
- Turn the same note into a snippet if you fill in the
shortcutfield. - Open the note in the notebook for wide editing or in a floating post-it window if you need it always visible.
- In Teams, create content that may be subject to approval or restricted by role.
How reminders behave
| Situation | What NexoPad does |
|---|---|
| Completed one-time reminder | Clears the reminder and moves the note to trash. |
| Completed recurring reminder | Calculates the next date according to daily, weekly, or monthly recurrence. |
| Snoozed notification | Lets you postpone it by 15 minutes. |
| Urgent note closed without action | If it is still overdue, NexoPad alerts again shortly after. |
Trash, permanent deletion, and floating post-it
The notebook includes trash, full emptying, and permanent destruction. If you work inside a team environment, permanent deletion of shared content can affect the whole workspace, not just your own user.
The floating post-it opens a note in a lightweight standalone window. It autosaves title and content, shows word and character counters, and keeps real-time sync when the same note changes from the notebook or from another window.
It also includes a formatting bar, a copy-all button, support for opening links with Ctrl or Cmd + click, the shortcut Ctrl+Shift+C to copy all text, and Alt+D to toggle dark mode.
shortcut and the same note becomes reusable as a snippet.
