Note Studio
Note Studio is a macOS note-taking app for organizing class or research material with audio, video, web, and document-based notes.
What is Note Studio?
Note Studio is a productivity app for macOS that helps users collect and organize notes from several kinds of study and research material in one place. It is designed for students, researchers, and anyone who wants to keep lecture, reading, and reference notes connected to the source material. The app supports audio notes, video annotations, web research notes, and notes for books or PDFs, along with subject-based organization and timeline views for related items. This makes it useful for classwork, interviews, project research, and long-form study sessions where context matters. Note Studio is published by Luminant Software and focuses on keeping notes, files, reminders, and source material together in a more structured workflow than a basic text editor.

Safety overview
Status: Mostly safe
This is a legitimate note-taking app, and access to files, documents, audio recordings, or imported study material is consistent with its purpose. As with other note and research tools, the main privacy consideration is the content you choose to store in it, which may include class notes, recordings, documents, or research material. If you use shared devices or sync related files through other services, review what sensitive information you keep inside your notes and recordings.
Recommendation: Keep Note Studio if you use it for study, research, or media-linked note taking. Remove it if you no longer need its projects or recordings, and make sure any notes, imported documents, or saved media you want to keep are exported or backed up first.
