What's new

Added

  • Act on notes right from the list (⌘P) without opening them: ⌃X delete, ⇧⌘P pin, ⌘D duplicate, ⌘O open in
    Apple Notes, ⇧⌘D copy deeplink. ⌘K or right-click shows all actions for the selected note, including Move to
    Folder. The list stays open and moves to the next note, so you can tidy up several in a row; Undo restores a
    deleted note.
  • Locked notes show a lock in the list, and opening one shows a clear "This note is locked" screen with an
    Open in Apple Notes button.

Changed

  • Duplicating copies Apple Notes' own formatting, and refuses notes whose checklists or attachments would be lost.
  • About NotesFloat sits below Check for Updates… in the menu bar menu.

Install

  1. Download NotesFloat-*.dmg below, open it, and drag NotesFloat to Applications.
  2. Open it. This build isn't notarized by Apple, so macOS blocks the first launch: go to
    System Settings › Privacy & Security, scroll down, and click Open Anyway next to NotesFloat.
    (Or run xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine "/Applications/NotesFloat.app" in Terminal.)
  3. The welcome guide walks you through access to Apple Notes and the optional Full Disk Access.

Already using NotesFloat 0.3 or later? It updates itself; you don't need to download anything.
Earlier versions don't include the updater, so install this one manually once.

Requires macOS 26 or later (Apple silicon or Intel). Checksums are in SHA256SUMS.txt.
