## What is Amber?

Amber is one fast, focused place for everything you reuse.

Keep a snippet, an image, a file or a document once — then reach for it in a tap, from your iPhone, your iPad or your Mac.

FOR THE REPLY YOU RETYPE EVERY WEEK
Save it as a template with blanks. Amber asks for the name and the project, and hands you the finished text.

FOR THE DOCUMENTS YOU SHOW CLIENTS
Group them on a shelf, then present them page by page in Show Mode — and hand over the real file, not its filename.

FOR THE TWENTIETH FORM ASKING FOR YOUR ADDRESS
Fill a form lines up your own details in the order forms ask for them. One tap to copy each, and it keeps your place.

ORGANISE IT THE WAY YOU THINK
Shelves nest. Smart shelves are saved searches that stay live — "PDFs used this month" keeps itself up to date. Drag a card onto a shelf to move it, or drop a file straight onto one to keep it there.

AUTOMATIONS
Turn any of that into a named routine you run with one tap: a canned reply, a client pack, a form kit.

IT FINDS THINGS BY WHAT THEY SAY
Amber reads the words inside your images and documents, so a screenshot of a receipt is findable by what is written on it.

YOUR IPHONE CAN DRIVE YOUR MAC
Show a document on the big screen from your pocket, or beam a card to another of your own devices — no pairing, no cable.

BUILT FOR THE KEYBOARD
Press Command-/ for every shortcut Amber has.

YOUR CONTENT STAYS YOURS
There is no Amber account and no Amber server. Everything lives on your device and syncs through your own iCloud. No analytics, no tracking, no ads.

Amber is free to use. Amber Pro is a one-off purchase — not a subscription — that lifts the card limit and unlocks the Pro features. If it ever lapses, your cards stay readable and copyable. Nothing is held hostage.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.0.0 — 2026-09-24

Amber on the Mac, properly.

• All cards is a folder view. Every project is a section with its own heading that you can fold shut, and dragging a card from one section to another moves it, with an Undo that puts back both the card and the order you had arranged.
• ⌘⇧A opens Amber from whatever app you are in. Return opens the card you have selected, Backspace deletes it with an Undo, and Space is left alone for the system.
• Search and Keep now sit together in one bar that floats at the bottom of the window, with the shortcut reference beside them.
• Twelve walkthroughs written for the Mac rather than borrowed from the phone, each a short silent clip — including beaming a card from your iPhone to the Mac.
• A card that arrives announces itself once: a notification and a tone when Amber is hidden, a highlight on the card itself when it is not.
• Every kind of card is distinct at a glance, the sidebar reads as its own panel, and the lock is gone: a card you kept is a card you can open.

### 0.3.2 — 2026-09-23

Cards sit on a warmer surface with a lit edge now, so a full library reads as a set of objects rather than one flat page — in both light and dark.

Fixed: the introduction could stall on its first screen with the Continue button disabled, and Embry was clipped at the top of that screen.

Fixed: opening Integrations could freeze the Mac app.

Settings now credits the people who made Amber.

### 0.3.1 — 2026-09-20

Edit what you kept, and two fixes.

• Cards can be edited. Open a card and tap Edit to change its title, or the text itself on a snippet or a detail. Amber could keep anything and change none of it until now — correcting a typo meant keeping the card again and deleting the original.
• Beaming a reply with blanks in it no longer stops at a dead end. The message said to fill it in first and gave you nowhere to do it; now there is a Fill it in button right there, and the finished text beams.
• The Calendar, Contacts, Reminders and Photos screens no longer hang on a spinner when the thing they are reading does not answer. They wait, then say so, and offer to try again.
• The introduction is filmed now rather than photographed.

### 0.3.0 — 2026-09-18

A new introduction.

• The tour is four screens now instead of six, and two of them are things you do rather than read. Tap the card on the third screen and it really is on your clipboard — leave Amber and paste it anywhere.
• If you already had something copied when you opened Amber, the last screen offers to keep it. Take the offer and your home screen has your own first card on it, instead of being empty.
• New photography throughout, and a larger, clearer promise on every screen, in light and dark.
• You can replay the introduction any time from Settings.

### 0.2.2 — 2026-09-15

Fixes, and a bigger window on the Mac.

• A file that is still arriving from iCloud now says so, and appears the moment it lands. Before this, a card whose contents had not finished syncing claimed they weren't on this device at all, and told you to go and open another one.
• On the Mac, opening a card shows the picture or the document straight away, at the size of the window, instead of a small panel with a button to press first.
• Find is on Command-F, where every Mac app puts it. It moves the cursor to the search field.
