Synology Note Station Client
Synology Note Station Client is a macOS desktop notes app for offline note editing and synchronization with Synology Note Station on a NAS.
What is Synology Note Station Client?
Synology Note Station Client is a desktop utility from Synology Inc. for accessing and editing notes stored in Synology Note Station. It connects to a Synology NAS and syncs notebooks, notes, and related changes between the Mac app and the Note Station service. Synology documents offline note editing, regular synchronization, and a three-level organization model based on shelves, notebooks, and notes. The client also supports task management features tied to notes, including starred and due-soon items, and it works with attachments and note metadata such as tags and creation details. Mac users typically encounter it when they use Synology productivity features beyond the web interface and want a dedicated desktop app for local work. It is part of the broader Synology ecosystem rather than a standalone cloud notes service.

Safety overview
Status: Mostly safe
This is a legitimate Synology desktop client. Its safety depends mainly on whether you intentionally use Synology Note Station and trust the NAS account it connects to. Because it can store synced notes and attachments locally for offline access, removing it may leave note data unsynced or inaccessible until you reconnect through another Note Station client.
Recommendation: Keep it if you use Synology Note Station or a Synology NAS for notes and tasks. Remove it if you no longer use Synology note syncing on this Mac and do not need offline access to those notes.
