What Anchor does

Anchor is a notebook with a proper editor: headings, lists, checklists, images and audio right inside the note. You can write offline; it syncs as soon as the app is reachable again.

Coloured tags, pinned and archived notes keep things tidy; a history per note brings earlier versions back.

Good to know before the first start: The first registered account is yours. While registration is open, anyone with the address can sign up — if you use the app alone or in a small group, close it in the admin area.
