Open multiple docs side by side in a tabbed interface — just like your browser, but faster. Switch between docs instantly without losing your place.

⁠

Desktop notifications

Get real-time alerts for @mentions, comments, and doc activity delivered straight to your desktop. Stay on top of what matters without switching back to your browser.

⁠

In-doc search

Use Command + F to search the contents of your doc, natively in the desktop app.

⁠

Fast new tab screen

Jump to recent docs, pinned pages, and search every time you open a new tab.

⁠

Automatic updates

The app gets automatic updates as they are ready, with on-screen prompts to update to the latest version.
