About NoteWall
NoteWall turns the lock screen into a reminder board. You enter notes, reminders, goals, habits or quotes, and they are drawn onto the lock screen as part of the wallpaper, with gradient backgrounds available, so they show every time you pick up the phone, without widgets or notifications.
The listing suggests it for quick notes, daily goals and affirmations, habit tracking, motivation and focus, and to-do lists, and the idea is that you forget things because you do not see them. It supports more than 20 languages. Full access needs a subscription with no free trial and can be cancelled at any time. The app is a free download for iPhone.
