A calm, paper-feeling place to think — handwrite and mark up PDFs with Apple Pencil, then ask Notelix to write the answer back as real ink, right on the page.
Free to use · no ads, no tracking · your notes stay on your device.


Notelix is built on Apple’s native PaperKit & PencilKit — so it feels like a first-party app, not a custom canvas. Pick up your Pencil and start.

handwritten, not typed
Type a question, point to where the answer goes, and Notelix reads your page and writes the reply back as real, undoable handwriting — in the hand you choose.
28 handwriting faces across Latin, Chinese, Korean and Japanese — tune ink, jitter, tilt and pressure so the AI writes like you. The full set comes with Plus.
The whole app — and the AI’s replies — in your language, switchable live in-app without a restart.
A second, Face-ID-locked space with its own notes and theme, and a warm companion that writes back under your latest line.

unlimited & tidy
Everything here is free — Notelix never charges you to keep your own notes.
No company server holds your notes — and the AI only ever sees a page when you ask it to.
Honest about the AI: invoking it sends a snapshot of the current page, your typed text and a transcription over HTTPS to our processing server and AI provider, solely to write your answer — never for ads, never sold. See the Privacy Policy for details.
The same canvas, Pencil tools, AI and PDF features everywhere — Mac is a real Catalyst app, not an iPad in a window.
