Release Candidate for the OS X version of Janus is now online here. Version number is 0.6.2 (247).
Changes:
The iOS version is also updated at the same version level and can be downloaded at the usual link.
Main changes are a fix for a crash and a fix for a problem in loading images from iOS to dropbox (the images were uploaded corrupted at 0 bytes length).
Both versions make now a (very) minimal usage tracking on a personal piwik server. An “opt-out” setting will be added to the preferences panels.
Make me know if it works for you.
Changes:
- Menus are now working.
- Smaller buttons on main UI.
- Many bug fixes.
- Contextual menus for attachment and notes.
- Attachment can now be edited, just open one in an editor (right-click and open with), save and it will be magically updated.
- You can now see notes and attachment in the finder (for debugging and/or editing purposes).
- Various improvements.

Janus (both iOS and OS X)

Janus is a program that manages text notes with attachments on both iOS and OS X, synchronizing the notes over Dropbox.
The program requires iOS 6 or later on iPhone/iPad and OS X 10.7 or later on a 64 bit intel machine on Macintosh.
To install the OS X version download the archive from here; unpack the zip file (if needed); copy Janus into Applications folder and execute it.
To Install the iOS version:
if you are on my iOS beta tester list, go directly from the device browser to http://www.iltofa.com/beta/janus/
if you want to participate to the beta testing, just send me an email with the UDID of your device(s).
Dropbox sync is activated into the preferences for both OSes. On iOS simply “link” your dropbox account. On OS X, select “Change Path” and select the folder ~/Dropbox/Apps/Janus-Note (that will exist if you already linked the iOS version to dropbox).
Both version can work also without Dropbox synchronization, as standalone applications.
There are no know bugs at the moment.
