Remember the little spiral notepad you kept in your pocket? You flipped it open, wrote the thing down, and got on with your day. Old School Notepad brings that simple notepad back to your phone.

Open the app and you are on the page, ready to write. No sign-up, no setup, no blank dashboard to work out. Just ruled lines, a red margin and a row of spiral rings above the page.

Write the way you think
• Type on the ruled lines, or switch to the pen and draw right beside your words. Typing and ink share the same page.
• Swipe the rings up or down to flip pages, like the real thing.
• Long-press the margin to add a checkbox, a cross-out box that strikes the line through when you tick it, or a short label such as 1, A or IV.
• Add a photo from your camera or your files, then move and resize it on the page.
• Give each page its own title.
• Write in black, blue or red ink, and pick a header colour for each notebook.
• Dark mode themes everything, including the paper.

Keep it organised
• Keep separate notebooks for home, work, travel and anything else, and group them into folders.
• Tap the page number to see every page as a thumbnail. Reorder, copy, add or delete pages from there.
• Search the typed text in a notebook.
• Deleted pages go to Recently deleted first, so a slip of the finger is not the end of the page.
• Each notebook holds up to 50 pages.

Share and remind
• Share a page as a picture, or send just its text.
• Remind me: pick a time and your own calendar app opens with the event filled in, including the page's text and a link back to it. You confirm it there. The app never touches your calendar on its own.
• Back up your notebooks to a file whenever you like, and restore them on this phone or another one.

Your notes stay on your phone
Old School Notepad has no internet permission at all, so it cannot send your notes anywhere. There is no account, no cloud, no ads, no analytics and no tracking. Your pages leave the phone only when you share or export them yourself.

Premium: one purchase, never a subscription
The app comes with three notebooks and everything above. Premium unlocks:
• Unlimited notebooks
• Graph, dotted and blank paper (lined is included)
• Pencil, marker and highlighter, plus the full ink palette
• PDF export of a whole notebook or selected pages
• Search across every notebook at once
• Automatic daily backup to a folder you choose
• Shared pictures without the small watermark
You pay once and it is yours. Anything included today stays included.

Good to know
• Handwriting stays as ink. It is not turned into typed text.
• There is no cloud sync. Keep a backup file somewhere safe, because if you lose your phone without one, your notes go with it.
• Backup files are not encrypted, so treat them like the notes inside.

Old School Notepad is for the grocery list, the measurements for the shelf, the gate code, the idea you had in the car. Small things, written down fast, kept where you can find them.
