Sneak peek #7 – Offline sticky notes in Windows

Many users wanted “selective” syncing of sticky notes in the Windows version of Notezilla. Meaning, they didn’t want all the notes to sync with the cloud. Some notes may contain sensitive information that the user may not want to send outside their computer’s boundary.

Yes, we have added the feature to create “Offline sticky notes” in the new version Notezilla 9, to be launched by end of July 2021. When a sticky note is marked as “offline”, they are never synced. They are local to your computer. Those sticky notes are stored under “Offline” memoboard. You can even create more offline memoboards from the Notes Browser. Here is how you create new offline sticky notes.

Selective syncing of sticky notes in Windows using “Offline” sticky notes

RecentX update: Dark mode introduced!

We love using apps in dark mode. Apps like Twitter, Instagram and even YouTube have rolled out dark modes.

I think we all can agree that there is something really soothing and visually appealing about the dark mode. It also gives relief to our eyes that might get strained looking at the bright light of our PC and mobile screens. Another good thing is that dark mode reduces battery usage of devices and therefore ensures longer battery life.

Joining this trend is RecentX. After requests from users, we have finally introduced a dark mode option in RecentX.

What is RecentX?

RecentX is a smart launcher for Windows designed to make your computing life joyful. Here are some of the many cool things you can do with RecentX:

  1. Effortlessly access any file, folder or program on Windows in less than 5 seconds!
  2. Assign tags to frequently used files/folders. Makes things even faster.
  3. Integrates with Windows File open/save window so that you don’t have to navigate any folder when opening or saving a document.
  4. It has a clipboard manager too that remembers all the text & pictures copied to a clipboard so that you can quickly pick & paste them again.
This is how it will look

How to activate dark mode?

Open the RecentX Window and go to the ‘Advanced’ tab on the top.

Select the ‘Preferences’ option and you will find the setting there.

You can switch back to the normal light mode anytime.

Hope you enjoy using RecentX even more after this update.

Download RecentX for free, from here.

Have a good day.

Attaching sticky notes to Microsoft Word Document and PDFs in Windows using Notezilla

We create sticky notes for various purposes. One of them is to jot down information related to any document or PDF we are working with. While we create notes related to the word document, we have to find and open that note again and again whenever we open that particular document. This is a clear waste of our time and effort.

Notezilla therefore has a fix for this. It offers a unique feature to attach sticky notes to any document, folder, app, and website. The note will open along with the file, folder, or program it is stuck to and will disappear when you don’t access it.
