Discover, organize, and deepen all your personal and professional relationships with Mesh, a beautiful and intuitive contacts app, lightweight CRM, and more. Formerly known as Clay — same app, new name! People make us laugh, challenge us to improve, support us when things are tough, and celebrate with us once they get better. But staying in touch with the people that matter thoughtfully is difficult. TRY MESH FOR FREE Before Mesh, being thoughtful required relying on your memory as well as a mix of spreadsheets, notecards, address books, and other tools. In addition to being difficult to manage, this approach let important relationships, moments, and context fall through the cracks. That’s why we created Mesh—a stunning, intuitive, and private home for your relationships, built automatically from your email, calendar, address book, LinkedIn, Twitter, and iMessage. Mesh helps you show up informed by creating and automatically updating beautiful cards for each of your contacts with context such as profile photos, bios, education and work history, location, and social profiles. In addition, you can use powerful features such as natural-language search, dictation and note taking, reminders, birthday notifications, news articles about people you know, reconnection cadences, and more to deepen your relationships over time. REMEMBER THE IMPORTANT THINGS Mesh is the fastest and most powerful way to take notes before, during, and after a conversation with someone. Remember kids names, vacation itineraries, and that last article you read that you’ve been dying to share, all by writing a note on someone's card. REACH OUT AT THE RIGHT MOMENT Set a reminder for particular days—like a birthday or anniversary—or pick a reconnection cadence so you don’t lose touch. ORGANIZE YOUR RELATIONSHIPS Dinner party faves? Book club? High school friends? Easily add people to groups so you can organize people however makes sense to you. Then, use those groups to make organizing events easier and faster. SEARCH LIKE YOU THINK You remember people in different ways—where you last met to catch up, when you last saw them, what you talked about. Just type what comes to mind and Mesh will find the right person or group of people based on your notes and their profile, all in milliseconds. It's the easiest, most powerful person search available anywhere. STAY ON TOP OF THINGS Never miss a beat with Home—a powerful, high-level view of all the updates from your entire network.

MetricTracker
Read full descriptionHide full description
For daily tracking of good and bad habits, medication, incidental usage (e.g. painkillers). This app focuses on simplicity, a clean interface without fluff, privacy (all data is stored locally we never see any of your data), speed, and the data visualizations are opinionated and focus on the 3-month window so that you can instantly get a sense of how the things you track are going on a 90 day period. There are two main screens called "log" and "trends". Swipe left/right to go between them. The "log" screen shows your weekly history and is for data entry. The "trends" screen is for long-term data visualization. The point of this app is to make it easy to log stuff and then to instantly access long term trends. The long term trends are displayed as bar chart timelines with expandable monthly, quarterly, and all-time statistics, time-of-day patterns. Each metric lives on its own card showing your last seven days. Tap once to log at your target, or open the numeric input for precise entry. From here you can open the calendar (by tapping the calendar icon) for viewing and editing previous entries. The app is free to use for up to three cards. Then you have to pay your currency's equivalent of 12 CAD and that gives you lifetime premium access without annoying recurring fees. Pretty sweet deal if you ask me. I built this app for my own usage, not really to make money, so I don't really expect to make my time back in money, but by following this philosophy I know that it will at least be useful for one person, and I hope it can help you too! This app supports 40 languages. If you find an issue with the app or you don't like something about it, LET ME KNOW and I will do my best to improve it!
