This month, I am sharing a Mac tool that I found recently while looking for a better way to save snippets of text for use later: <a href=\"https:\/\/apps.apple.com\/us\/app\/plume-light-menubar-note\/id1513115773?mt=12\">Plume<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I&#8217;ve occasionally used the built-in <a href=\"https:\/\/support.apple.com\/guide\/stickies\/welcome\/mac\">Stickies app<\/a>, but found that it can quickly get messy. I also use a clipboard manager, but that serves a different purpose for me. After trying a number of options, I settled on Plume and it&#8217;s been running on my computers ever since. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you&#8217;d like quick, easy access to a sticky note-like tool from your Mac&#8217;s menu bar, this app may be for you! It has a minimalist interface (Tip: You can hide all buttons\/the logo in Minimalist mode.), size options, font options, color options, and a smart text completion mode.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">PC users: Are you aware of a similar app for Windows? If so, please share it with me <a href=\"mailto:mastersc@umich.edu\">via email<\/a> or in the comments, and it may be included in a future Tech Tip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Have a cool app, tool, or tech tip you\u2019d like to share? <\/em><a href=\"mailto:mastersc@umich.edu\"><em>Contact Chase Masters<\/em><\/a><em>.
