WHY PASTEL NOTES?
Many note apps are either too plain or too complicated. Pastel Notes keeps the speed of a simple notepad and adds the things you really use: colors, categories, checklists, reminders, rich text and PDF. Your notes stay on your phone unless you choose to back them up to your own Google Drive.

PASTEL NOTES PRO
Pastel Notes is free to use with ads. Pro removes ads and unlocks premium fonts, paper styles and colors, note locking, larger PDF imports, automatic Google Drive backup and advanced widgets. Choose weekly, yearly (with a free trial) or a one-time lifetime purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; you can manage or cancel them anytime in Google Play.

Write it down, color it in, find it fast. Download Pastel Notes and keep your notes, lists and ideas beautifully organized.
