About Noteillum

Noteillum is a place to collect what you take from books. You add books with title, author and cover, capture rich text notes of up to 10,000 characters, search any note or book with filters, and each day a Today Highlights view brings back a random old note so insights are not forgotten.

Appearance is adjustable with light and dark themes, font sizes from 10 to 20 points and keyboard shortcuts. A Pro tier adds email reminders for the daily review, export of notes in several formats and import from Notion databases. Data syncs across Apple devices through CloudKit, sign-in uses Apple, and the app is built natively in SwiftUI. It suits readers who highlight quotes, students building study notes and researchers organizing insights, and it can be used free or upgraded to Pro.
