A Simple, Unobtrusive, and Functional Note-Taking App
SideWriter is a tool that lets you instantly access your notes on your Mac. It hides itself on the right or left side of your computer screen and becomes available whenever you need it.
Easily Accessible
As aforementioned, SideWriter is easily accessible at all times. You don’t need multiple hotkeys or frequent app switching to access the tool. A simple wrist-flick opens up the note area for some seamless note-taking, copying-pasting, etc. When you’re done, it would set itself aside so that you can focus on your main tasks. The drag and drop functionality comes in quite handy when importing, exporting and organizing notes. The ability to work with multiple pages is wonderful. Needless to say, SideWriter could turn out an indispensable tool if you are into research and writing.
Simple and Clean
Out of the many note-taking apps available, SideWriter is certainly among the cleanest, extremely simple, and functional tools. It is not overloaded with features, and offers only the functionalities you would need. The app developer is extremely responsive. If there is a feature you need or you want an annoyance addressed, the developer would most likely make that available in the next update. Also, the app is unobtrusive. It shows up and hides quickly. And the fact that you can position the app window anywhere along the desktop’s side is extremely convenient.

- Notes get automatically saved

Cons
