QuickInbox catches a stray thought before it slips away, then makes sure it never quietly rots in a forgotten list. Two tap capture, one thought saved. Open the app, or the widget, or the share sheet from any other app, and start typing - your note is written to disk as you type, with no explicit save button and nothing to configure first. An expiring inbox, not a graveyard of notes. Every capture gets an expiry countdown - 1, 3, or 7 days, or a custom span you set once in Settings. Notes near their deadline sit in the Inbox until you pin them to keep, archive them to file away, or let them lapse and disappear on their own. Nothing accumulates forever by accident. A widget and a share sheet, not just an app icon. Add the QuickInbox widget to your Home Screen for a one-tap launch straight into a blank note, or use the Share action from Safari, Photos, or any other app to drop a link or a passage straight into your Inbox without switching apps first. Archive, search, and hold onto what mattered. Anything you pin survives its expiry date and moves to the Archive, where full-text and date search make old notes easy to find again months later. A decorative note style costs a short ad; saving, searching, and archiving never do. Watch a short ad to unlock a paper color, typeface, and completion flourish for the rest of the day - or skip it. Every core action, including finishing a note before its timer runs out, works identically either way. Nothing leaves your device. QuickInbox opens with no account screen, makes no network call outside the ad SDK, and keeps every note, pin, and archive entry in this app's own local storage - shared only between the app, its widget, and its share extension through an app group, never with a server.
