Field notes
The homepage describes interactions tied to ordinary work: typing sets off a typewriter animation, scrolling rolls out yarn, and task completion earns a lap around the cat’s friend. It also lists a self-saving notepad, a focus timer without a score, and helpers for tidying or searching files. The site says the app supports Windows 10 and 11 and macOS 12 or newer, and offers early access.
