Your thinking
sets the order.

Ideas rarely arrive in a tidy sequence. Keep a drawing next to the measurements, a recording beside the brief, and a table where the details belong.

Sketch in context

Draw with Apple Pencil or your finger, right inside the note.

02

Give details a home

Editable tables, custom titles and adjustable column widths.

03

Move things around

Drag drawings, audio, tables and text sections into a new order.

Bring the details into focus

A proper table.
A quieter note.

Tap a cell and start typing. Add rows and columns, adjust their widths, and name the table or leave it untitled. Tap Done and the editing controls step out of the way.

Long press the row or column dots for options. These are tables for organising text; live calculations stay in the surrounding note.

Capture more than words

See it. Save it.
Keep it with the idea.

Take a photo with your camera or choose one from your library. Keep the image beside your notes and calculations, then add a voice clip to remember the details.

A few details

Before you dive in.

A closer look at notes, drawings, sync and TextCalc Pro.

What is new in TextCalc 2.0?

Drawings are part of the document flow. Tables have editable cells, row and column menus, adjustable widths and optional titles. You can rearrange drawings, recordings, tables and text sections, then export your work as a PDF.

How do I move a drawing or recording?

Open Document actions and choose Arrange elements. Drag an element handle to a divider to change its position. The element menu also lets you move it earlier, later or to your text cursor.

Can I draw with my finger?

Yes. Draw with your finger on iPhone, or use Apple Pencil on iPad. On iPad you can switch finger drawing on in the drawing controls and expand the drawing for more space.

How do tables work?

Tap a cell to type. Use the row and column dots to add or delete rows and columns. Drag a column handle to resize it, or choose Column width from its menu. The table menu lets you edit or remove its title. Tap Done to hide the editing controls. Table cells hold text; live math runs in the surrounding note.

Do my notes sync between iPhone and iPad?

Yes, through your private iCloud. Use the same Apple Account and enable iCloud for TextCalc on both devices. You can work offline; syncing needs a connection and available iCloud storage. Your note content is not sent to our servers.

Is TextCalc a subscription?

No. Start with three personal notes and included examples. Pro is a single purchase for unlimited notes, reusable templates, live currency rates and PDF project headers and page numbers. Your local price is shown by Apple before you buy.

Can I use it offline?

Yes. Write notes, calculate, draw and edit tables offline. Currency conversion uses the last available rate snapshot. Updating rates and syncing changes through iCloud need an internet connection.

Which devices are supported?

TextCalc is designed for iPhone and iPad running iOS 17 or later. Apple Pencil needs a compatible iPad. Apple Intelligence Writing Tools require a supported device and system configuration.
