Ikes: Idea Notes

Ikes is not your ordinary note app. It's built for capturing ideas and finding them again — fast.

Got an idea? Read a great quote? Snapped a page from a book? Just throw it all into Ikes. Text, images, and links drop into a single feed, and you add tags, sources, and sparkles to whatever matters. Later, filters and search bring anything back in seconds.

Now with a new unified export: send your whole library — or just the ideas matching your current filter — out as TXT, CSV, TSV, JSON, or YAML. JSON and YAML are designed for AI and RAG workflows, ready to drop straight into your pipeline.

- Save text, images, and links instantly, with tags, sources, and sparkles.

- Works inside Safari, X/Twitter, book readers, and other apps via the share extension.

- Filter bar, tag/source browsers, and full-text search surface what you need.

- Shuffle and random idea views bring forgotten ideas back to the top.

- iCloud sync across iPhone, iPad, and Mac — included for free.

- Place your favorite quotes on your Home Screen with widgets.
