In this release

Three things that change how Cleft feels.

Plus15improvements & fixes

01: Surface
Note list · Toolbar

A cleaner note list, an emptier toolbar.

Redesigned cards with better spacing in the note list. The iPhone toolbar consolidates into one tidy sheet. Mac Settings is rebuilt with native styling. Even the spinning gear feels at home.

  • Cards, redesigned. Better spacing, easier to scan.
  • iPhone toolbar. One tidy sheet, no overflow.
  • Mac Settings. Redesigned with native styling.
02: Search

⌘/

Open search from anywhere on Mac

Search anywhere on Mac. One key.

Cmd+/ opens search from any screen on Mac. Cmd+1 through Cmd+5 swap tabs in Settings. The keyboard-first promise extends a little further.

  • ⌘/ to search. Open search from any context.
  • ⌘1 through ⌘5 in Settings. Switch tabs without your trackpad.
  • All shortcuts visible. Settings now lists every keybinding.
03: Tags & sharing

Three small things that scale.

Tags get a unified picker, bigger tap targets, and bulk management. Sharing is more reliable across iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Spotlight finds tags now, and it works offline.

Tags, unified

One picker, bigger tap targets, bulk-edit across many notes.
