Peeky Notes

Peeky Notes keeps quick notes within reach without cluttering the desktop. The app sits at the left or right edge of the screen, has no taskbar button and no Alt+Tab entry, stays hidden over fullscreen apps, and opens from a system-wide shortcut. Each note gets its own window, and an All Notes view lets you see, search, sort and manage everything in one place.

Notes can be colored from eight colors with keyboard shortcuts, follow the Windows light or dark theme, be pinned, archived instead of deleted, and imported or exported. Deleting never asks for confirmation but offers a ten-second undo. Version 1.2.0 adds drag-to-reorder for notes and lists that start themselves when a line begins with a dash, a number and a period, or brackets for a checklist. The app can start with Windows and has a portable option.

The product is described as 100 percent local, with no telemetry and no sign-up needed to try it. There is a 7-day trial and a one-time purchase with no subscription, listed at $5.99 for launch seats against $11.98 afterward, and it is distributed through the Microsoft Store.
