It's as if Penzu was destined to be on the iPad. What better way to take notes, jot down your thoughts, and quickly look up old entries?
Just Like A Native App
With the help of HTML5, Penzu Mobile works just like an app from the Appstore.
All you have to do is login to Penzu Mobile, then press the "+" symbol on the browser's top toolbar. Select "Add to Home Screen" and a custom Penzu icon will be added to your iPad's home screen.
Now you can access Penzu Mobile whether you are online or offline. It's fast and uses the full screen!
Compose, Edit, View
Compose
With Penzu Mobile, easily compose new entries. Click the "plus" button on the pad toolbar and a new entry will appear instantly. Write in portrait or landscape mode for easier typing.
Edit
Edit unfinished or old entries right on your iPad. They will be automatically synced with your Penzu Pro account.

Retain rich-text formatting with our unique View Mode. Append text to the end without losing your work.

Manage your entries on the go. A quick tap on the title will open the entry. Or use the checkbox to select entries for deletion.
View Tagged Entries
Select from your list of tags or recent tags to view all tagged entries in your Penzu journal.
Delete
Send unwanted entries to the trash by deleting. Login to your account form your computer to further manage your entries and restore deleted ones if need be.
Share
Even though Penzu is meant to be private, we know you still may want to share your entries with friends and family.
You can easily share entries from your iPad via email. Just click the Share button on the pad toolbar. Enter one or many recipients (separated by commas), enter an optional message, and you're done!
Once an entry is shared a small Shared icon will appear in the top right of the entry.
Tag
Penzu Mobile offers a great way to group and organize your entries: Tagging. You can effortlessly keep track of multiple entries by assigning a common tag.
For example, if you were on a trip around the world, and wanted to group your entries from each country, you could tag each entry from Thailand with the tag "Thailand", each entry from Japan with the tag "Japan" and so on.
You can then easily view all of the tagged entries on your Entries page by clicking the Tags button on the toolbar. Clicking a specific tag will display a results page containing entries with that tag.
Lock And Roll
Protect your most valued entries by locking them. Just like on the web app, choose from Basic or Encryption lock. Encrypted entries are securely locked and stored on our servers. The one-way encryption of your password works exactly the same on your mobile device, transferred via SSL.
When offline, locking is disabled and locked entries aren't accessible for your safety. We don't store any locked information or passwords on your device.
Search
Quickly and easily find old entries with our server-side search. When online, your entire account is searchable so you can edit, modify, or delete past entries.
Recent searches are also just a click away. We store your latest searches so you can save time!
