Field notes
The Windows version is described as saving notes to the user’s Drive, with dictation running on the PC rather than in the cloud. For file shelving, the page says Padd verifies the Drive copy before clearing local space; it also describes phone access through a home-screen shortcut, without a separate app-store install. The page also lists calendar month, week, and agenda views.
