MemoKey - The Note-Taking App with a Keyboard Superpower
A simple, fast, and secure note-taking app for iOS and Android with a killer feature: a custom keyboard to access, search, and paste your notes from any app.
🧩 What is MemoKey?
MemoKey is a modern, cross-platform note-taking application designed for speed and convenience. At its core, it's a private and organized place for all your thoughts, ideas, and snippets of information. But its true power lies in its deep integration with your mobile workflow through a custom keyboard extension, turning your notes from a static archive into an active, instantly accessible tool.
💡 Why I Built It
Like many of you, I found myself constantly switching between apps. I'd be writing an email and need a specific address. I'd be in a chat and want to paste a common reply. I'd be browsing and need to save a quick thought. Each time, the process was the same: leave the current app, open my notes app, find the note, copy the text, switch back, and finally paste.
This friction was a constant drag on my productivity. I didn't just want a place to store my notes; I wanted a way to use them, instantly, wherever I was typing. That's why I built MemoKey—to eliminate the app-switching tax and bring your notes directly to your fingertips.
