Stillpaper

Open it. Write on the desk. Review in your pocket.

Paper-first notebook for iPad Home desk and Focus Desk, plus iPhone pocket. Handwritten chrome, Meeting templates, Field Capture, PDF import. Local-first. Pay once.

One app

Desk and pocket.

Stillpaper is built as a duo: a full-screen Home desk on iPad, and a companion shelf on iPhone—not a tiny copy of the desk.

iPad

Home + Focus Desk

Six-tile Home—Paper, Daily, Meeting, Learning, Capture, Desk—then Apple Pencil on paper with ink colors, tip sizes, and Focus Desk. Light and dark stay together.

Handwritten home. Paper on.

iPhone

Pocket

Shelf, Meeting Notes, review, local search, PDF import/export, and Field Capture—snap a whiteboard or agenda, open it on the desk.

Bring the meeting to the desk.

iPad Home

Six tiles. One desk.

Paper, Daily, Meeting, Learning, Capture, and Desk—handwritten labels on a full-screen home that feels like opening a real notebook, in light or dark.

Focus Desk

Write on paper that follows you.

Pick ink from the toolbar or by tapping pen again—Auto uses white ink in Dark Mode. Paper stocks and chrome stay with the system appearance, so Home and the page never flash apart.

Meetings without the cloud tax

Bring the meeting to the desk.

No Teams or Meet login. No conference bot. Stillpaper stays paper-first: templates, Field Capture, and PDF import—your notes, on your devices.

  1. Templates

    Meeting Notes & Agenda

    Start free with Meeting Notes on the shelf. Unlock Meeting Pro for Agenda & Actions—layout ready before the call, not an AI bot in the room.

  2. Field Capture

    Snap on phone, open on desk

    Photograph a whiteboard, agenda printout, or sticky wall in your pocket. Promote it into a blank notebook on iPad Focus Desk—local photo, no account.

  3. Import

    Bring notes to the paper

    Import a PDF or share text/docs into Stillpaper, then annotate with Apple Pencil. Export when you need a portable copy. You bring the meeting; we keep the desk calm.

Everything in the app

Desk tools. Pocket shelf. Paper you can feel.

Stillpaper is small on purpose—but complete where it matters: ink, pages, templates, PDF, search, and ownership.

Home desk on iPad

A full-screen Home with six tiles—Paper, Daily, Meeting, Learning, Capture, Desk—and handwritten labels that feel like a real notebook.

  • Paper shelf of notebook covers with + New
  • Daily — one rolling notebook; week strip marks days you wrote
  • Meeting tile for Notes & Agenda recipes
  • Learning — import a PDF to annotate on the desk
  • Capture — Field Capture from iPhone appears here
  • Desk quick actions: New, Import, Meeting, Shop
  • Light and dark appearance stay consistent from Home to page

Focus Desk on iPad

Write with Apple Pencil on paper that follows system appearance. Pick ink. Hide the chrome and stay on the page.

  • Ink color picker — Auto (white in Dark Mode), plus palette from toolbar or pen tap
  • Tip size Regular / Large / XL via toolbar or Pencil double-tap / squeeze

  • Focus Desk mode — tools hideable, canvas stays mounted
  • Finite pages with bound budgets (Pocket, Journal, Folio)

Pocket on iPhone

A companion shelf—not a tiny GoodNotes. Review, search, and capture on the go.

  • Pocket shelf of physical notebook covers
  • Read-only review of notebooks away from the desk
  • Field Capture — photo on phone becomes a blank notebook on iPad
  • Local search across titles, tags, typed notes, and PDF text
