Notion is a note-taking and organisation app from Notion Labs. Everything is built from pages and blocks: text, lists, images, tables and databases. It runs in the browser and as desktop and mobile apps, with a free plan and paid subscriptions.

What Notion is for

People use Notion to take notes, track tasks, keep a team wiki, plan projects or collect ideas. Its databases support subtasks, dependencies and custom properties, and can be shown as a table, a board or a calendar. The free plan gives a single user unlimited blocks, web publishing, basic forms, calendar connections and a limited trial of Notion AI. It limits uploads to 5 MB per file, page history to 7 days and guests to 10. The Plus, Business and Enterprise plans lift those limits.

Who is it for?

The free plan is a good match for students and individuals who want notes and projects in one place. Small teams can start for free, but block limits kick in once a workspace has more than one member. You need an account, and offline access only covers recent and favourite pages.

Download Notion safely

Get Notion from notion.com for Windows and macOS, from Google Play on Android, and from the App Store on iPhone and iPad. You can also use it straight from your browser without installing anything.
