Tot 2.0: A Thoughtful Extension of an Already Elegant Note-Taking App

Late yesterday, The Iconfactory released 2.0 updates to Tot for macOS, Tot Pocket for iOS and iPadOS, and Tot Mini for watchOS. The apps, which The Iconfactory describes as tiny text companions, include a handful of big new features that span all three versions, along with other updates and fixes that are unique to each

One of the late additions to Tot 2 on the Mac was the vibrant window background Setting. I convinced @chockenberry to give it a go and while he wasn’t really fond of it, I loved it. It really makes Tot feel modern and fresh. This what Liquid Glass is supposed to feel like, right? 😅

Anyway Tot2 is out today and we really hope you’ll check it out. Help spread the word, thanks! https://tot.rocks

I wanna say thx to all of you who supported us today by buying Tot for iOS or upgrading for macOS. As you may or may not know, we’ve been under a serious crunch at the factory lately. Honestly wasn’t sure we’d make it to Tot 2’s release but we have.

Some of you re-bought Tot even though you already owned it! What can we say except thank you. Thx to those who spread the word or left reviews. Thx to those who were just KIND today. We’re weary (as you are) so your kindness is seen & appreciated 👍

Huh. iTC anaylitics reports that Tot for macOS was actually downloaded more than Tot Pocket for iOS during yesterday’s launch. That… I did not expect.

Maybe cause it’s easier to find in the less crowded Mac App Store? Wow, that’s never happened before. Strange. 🤔 #TotRocks

If I had the money I’d SO be hiring someone to do Iconfactory’s tech support after this week. Been totally swamped. Be glad we don’t use stupid AI to answer tech support requests. God knows what it’d be telling you to fix your #TotRocks problems. 🤓🫠
Something I’ve learned this week: People sure are passionate about their text tools. 😳 #TotRocks
Watching baseball and answering tech support requests, as you do. Jared Durand hit the first inside-the-park home run a bit ago, the first one at Fenway since 2011 so that was cool. #RedSox #TotRocks
