## What is Near?

Your privacy-friendly action hub
What matters, visible now.

• 22 templates, 18 role presets and customizable entry points.
• Pickup, meal and parking tasks can stay open until you complete them.
• Create share cards in your theme; parents can keep appointment and vaccination records.

Paste text, share it from another app, or enter details yourself. Near organizes supported formats on your device, and you review the result before saving. No account or advertising.

CARDS FOR EVERYDAY MOMENTS
• Train and flight details, parcel and meal pickup codes, queue numbers and QR or barcodes
• Shopping lists and to-dos, with import from Apple Reminders and supported reminder times
• Text notes, movie details, parking information, reminders and timers

ON YOUR SCREEN AND WRIST
• Show the current action as a Live Activity on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island on supported iPhones
• Home Screen widgets in three sizes, Lock Screen widgets and Apple Watch views
• Notes put the words first; checklists keep the next item clear
• Automatic tasks follow start time. A task you put first stays current until it ends, then the next eligible task starts. A card’s lead time overrides the default. Scheduled alerts may temporarily take over.

YOUR OWN STYLE
Nine themes, clearer forms and ticket or record sharing styles suited to different card types.

LOCAL CONTENT
Card content is processed on your device and pickup codes are stored encrypted. Core card features work offline. This version contains no analytics SDK and sends no usage statistics. Device backups follow your Apple backup settings.

LANGUAGE AND SYSTEM SUPPORT
The interface follows your system language and supports 20 languages. Recognition uses local rules for supported formats; review the result or use manual entry for other formats. Text recognition depends on Apple Vision language support. iOS 26 reminders can use system alarms with permission; older versions use notifications. Automatic background scheduling of eligible timed to-dos requires iOS 26 and Live Activity permission; older systems update when the app runs. Live Activities, the Dynamic Island and Watch features depend on your device and permissions.

Flight details are saved information, not live status. Check airport displays and airline notices for changes.

More everyday reminders
Save the time and place of a date, payment amounts and due dates for credit cards and bills, and yearly anniversaries using the Gregorian or Chinese lunar calendar. Use the default advance display or adjust each card.

Less typing
Recognize supported notifications, tickets and screenshots on device. Shortcuts receive the text or images you supply, saving clear results automatically and asking you to review uncertain fields. View multiple uncollected codes at the same pickup point. Message automation must be configured in Apple Shortcuts with the message body connected as input.

Clearer cards and guidance
Key details take priority. Pickup status and action buttons are distinct; collecting a parcel removes its code. Themes, ambient scenes, feature demos and illustrated tutorials help you get started. Choose a trash retention period; automatic cleanup runs when the app performs maintenance.

### 4/5 — 很不错的应用

*2026-10-23*

就是在识别火车票的时候会把到达时间，识别为出发时间

### 4/5 — 很不错很有设计感

*2026-10-21*

个人使用体验反馈：全部列表中确认⭕️在左边，类别专区打开后这个⭕️在右边，影响手感；02确认取件之后弹出分享界面，需要手动返回，这一步在取多个快递的时候影响比较大，要不停地返回。

### 5/5 — 好评

*2026-10-21*

界面简洁大气

### 5/5 — 是心目中想要的app，功能齐全强大

*2026-10-21*

待办任务添加内容时拼音的第一个字母会直接落到任务区，待办内容更改时删除中间文字时，再输入会默认跳到最后文字后边

### 4/5 — 页面稍显杂乱

*2026-10-20*

页面最好加一个简化版的实现功能，复杂的定义功能清楚的规划设计在其他地方，能够降低学习成本

### 5/5 — 好用

*2026-10-19*

非常积极的作者，众人拾柴火焰高，有一种大家集思广益解决问题的成就感。

### 4/5 — 四星鼓励一下

*2026-10-17*

作者这个app设计挺好看的，就是可以优化一下识别功能吗，图片识别，文字识别都不是很好，针对常用的取餐码和取件码

**Developer response:** 谢谢你的四星鼓励，也谢谢你喜欢 Near 的设计！取餐码、取件码的识别确实是我们接下来重点优化的方向，后续版本会持续提升图片和文字的识别准确度。如果方便，欢迎在 App 内反馈识别不准的截图类型（比如哪家外卖或快递），我们会优先针对性优化。有新进展会第一时间在更新说明里告诉你～

### 1/5 — 闪退

*2026-10-13*

17.0 系统更新后打不开闪退

**Developer response:** 1.1.1 版本已经修复，可以更新看看

### 5/5 — 一步步优化的锁屏标签

*2026-10-12*

还在初期接触使用，没什么好说的，就凭作者还在慢慢优化 app 就值得五星鼓励。希望作者坚持下去，也希望这个 app 壮大起来，让更多人用起来，让作者也能有收入坚持下去

### 5/5 — ios17.2闪退请修复

*2026-10-12*

好用，爱用。就是更新之后，闪退，让我怎么用。笑哭

**Developer response:** 已经修复，等审核后请更新就可以了
