NoteTote can download any kind of file, and as the developer writes on the app’s website: “if it’s a public file on the web, NoteTote can download it”. The app supports Growl notifications, which make for a great way to also be notified of successful downloads using the Prowl app. NoteTote can also keep a log of completed downloads in another note, but this is optional. If you don’t have an iPhone or iPad with the Simplenote app installed, you can of course paste links from the Simplenote webapp on another computer. All of this while you don’t have access to your Mac. On a regular interval (which can be adjusted in the Preferences) NoteTote will look for URLs inserted in the special note and try to download them. While you’re away from your Mac and you want to start a download remotely, open the Simplenote app, paste the link and that’s it. NoteTote, in fact, upon logging into the service with your credentials will create a “special” NoteTote_Downloads note that will always stay there, monitored by the app running on your Mac’s menubar. For as simple as it sounds, all you have to do to start a download on your Mac is paste a URL into a specific note. Previously known as MobileDL and now available at $8.99 in the Mac App Store, NoteTote is an interesting solution to trigger downloads remotely on your Mac using the iPhone, iPad or any other device that has access to Simplenote.
