What it is

CrackNote keeps your tasks and notes together on your PC and your Android phone.

Type a line such as "call the plumber tomorrow 10:00 !high #home" and it becomes a task with a date, a reminder, a priority and a tag. Sync goes through your CrackMac account, end-to-end encrypted with a passphrase only you know, so CrackMac cannot read your notes.

What it does
