## What is BookSynapse?

Notes become neurons; books connect into synapses.
BookSynapse — a second brain that grows as you read and write.
――――――
■ Every day, your books speak again
· Today's Synapse — one new connection, one card a day
· Echo from the Past — a note from months ago resurfaces today
· Weekly Synapses — your week's reading arrives like a letter on Sunday
· Recent Pulses — this week's reading at a glance

■ Writing gets lighter
· Snap a page and its sentences become text
· Jump straight into writing from the Lock Screen or Control Center widget
· Offline? Notes are saved and sync when you're back

■ Scattered notes, connected
· Auto-linked by shared authors, keywords, and tags
· Link any two notes by hand when they belong together
· No manual organizing — the network grows as you write

■ A second brain, built by reading
· Neural View — every note in one living graph
· Thought walk — wander from note to note along the links
· Zoom and drag through your own mind

■ Sentences worth keeping become cards
· Turn quotes and synapses into paper-textured cards
· Save them, or pass them along

■ Reading becomes a universe
· Finished months are planets; each book, a satellite
· From rating spreads to yearly stats — numbers turned into scenery
――――――
No ads. No tracking. Every feature free.
For everyone who reads quietly and writes deeply.
