About

CueKit

Features
Read full description

CueKit turns messy content into reviewed next actions. Paste a message, choose a photo with text, capture a screenshot, or dictate a quick note, then review what should happen next. Instead of replacing Calendar, Reminders, Mail, Notes, or Share Sheet, CueKit acts as a safe routing hub. It prepares editable drafts so you stay in control before anything is created. What CueKit helps you do: - Find events, deadlines, follow-ups, replies, notes, and shareable summaries from text or images. - Review and edit suggested actions before saving or sending. - Route next steps to Calendar, Reminders, Mail, Notes, Clipboard, or Share Sheet. - Choose a focus: Auto, Plan, Remind, Reply, Save Note, or Share. - Paste copied text, take a photo, choose images, or use voice input. - Use App Shortcuts to send clipboard or shared text into an editable review. CueKit is built for devices that support Apple Intelligence. It requires iOS 26 or later and Apple Intelligence enabled. CueKit is designed for privacy and control: your content is prepared for review first, and you confirm before creating calendar events, reminders, replies, notes, or shared content.
