FragNote is a minimalist card-based recording tool that you can use to jot down anything, such as notes, diaries, inspirations, memos, and reminders. - Multiple Recording Methods Text, images, Live Photos, videos, audio, and geolocation. - Custom Categories The home page is a default timeline, but you can enable categories in the settings, with up to four main categories available. - Multilevel Tags Use multilevel tags to better organize and summarize your records. - Questions and Titles These are more suitable for summarizing and categorizing than tags, which are best kept short. Titles and questions, however, can be lengthy. - Card associations External link, internal link, external reference, and internal reference—four types of associations that make connections between cards more flexible. - Calendar A combination of heat maps and image calendars allows you to see your recording trends. - Map and Geolocation Add or edit locations, view your records on a map, and enable the option to read timestamps and locations from your photos in the settings. - Personalization Customize theme colors, background images, and app icons as needed. - Notifications A minimalist notification feature that works well with checklists. - Sharing Convert your content into images to share with friends. - Cloud Sync If you are logged into iCloud on your device, all content is automatically saved to your iCloud account.
