I cant make it work
Really love this app but wish there was a lifetime purchase option to use apps that don’t have a paid API, such as obsidian. I will revise this review immediately to 5 stars if that ever happens!

Thanks a lot for the review, and glad you love the app.
The subscription ($15/year) helps keep the app sustainable, and be updated regularly. As a solo dev doing everything, it can be challenging sometimes. But I appreciate your feedback, and understand your point as well. Will look into more options in the future.
All the best :) This app calls to me as elegant way to quickly get ideas or thoughts out of my head.
The developer did a great job with the UX. I especially like the what’s new section of the app with past/present/future.
Looking forward to the Mac and shortcuts integration.

Thank you so much for the nice review :)
More features, including Shortcuts coming soon. Thank you for making this app. Funnel is fantastic if you need to quickly capture information and you use Obsidian, Drafts, or the other supported destinations. As I contractor I spend my days reviewing the state of projects, noting deficiencies, and communicating with my partners. Funnel allows me to quickly store a picture or thought without having to fiddle with an app. It is saving me a significant number of minutes every day. I bought a subscription a few days ago and it has already paid for itself in time savings.
Here is my take on future enhancements (note this list is geared to Obsidian):
Reasonable List:
- Add new content at end of file instead of beginning of file
- Capture multiple pictures at once
- Add text to media; Ex., send text with picture
- Edit a variable-based file name by content type: if(type=Photo, "Pic"_{date}-{time}_{<prompt for name>}.jpg")
Dream List:
- Customize picture insert link to Obsidian to display a picture at a specify size: if(type=Photo, "Pic"_{date}-{time}_{<prompt for name>}.jpg|300)
- Annotate pictures--just need simple pen with 2-3 colors and text box
- Media (pictures, etc.) should save to folders as specified in Obsidian. Saving a picture to my Daily note results in a link in the Daily file but the attachments go to the folder designed in Funnel.

Thanks a lot for such a wonderful review!
And a lot of items from the Reasonable and Dream list are planned :)I’ve been looking for a way to quickly capture thoughts, pictures, to do’s, … anything into Obsidian. My search is over: THIS is the best app to do just that!
Developer Response
Thanks a lot for the review :)Great solution to the dilemma of figuring out how to get images into obsidian on mobile. Worth $15 a year! Installed to see if I like it and I’ve continuously used it in the month or so since install. Thanks for the great app!!
Developer Response
Thank you so much!! :)Absolutely amazing all around. Simple to get started with plenty of bells and whistles to satisfy advanced use cases as well! Nicely done!
Developer Response
thanks a lot, Murf!!! 🎉 $15/year is a steal in order to send unlimited notes to Obsidian (and other apps) in the blink of an eye.
Oh, and it also has transcription, photos, and more.
I get more value from this per week than I pay per year!
Developer Response
Cheers, and glad you like it :) Happy new year too!Quick thoughts after using it a bit:
A multiple widget like Launcher by Cromulent where you can swipe down and left and have a grid of send options.
Shortcuts compatible so I can bring up send to destination via voice?
It would be nice to be able to send to sections under headers in future daily notes, maybe it is?
Great start 👍
Developer Response
Thank you, appreciate your feedback! Will also check out the Launcher widget.
Wish you a wonderful holiday season and new year :)Simple and works.
