- Mac users who want to capture notes mid-task
- Worth noticing
- The page says notes are stored as plain Markdown files on the Mac, with no account, analytics, or uploads.
Field notes
The overlay is summoned with Control-Space and is described as staying available over full-screen apps and across Spaces. Beyond quick text capture, the page shows screen captures that leave Papr out of the image, plus search filters for tags, collections, reactions, and dates. It says notes are stored locally as plain Markdown files; the extracted homepage does not specify supported macOS versions.
