Evernote is your second brain — the place to keep everything that matters and find it again the moment you need it. "…an invaluable tool for organizing a messy digital life." — The New York Times Capture a thought, a to-do, a photo, or a whole project, then let Evernote help you organize it, make sense of it, transcribe a meeting or tidy up a rough draft, and bring it back exactly when it counts. From the first spark of an idea to the finished plan, it all lives in one calm, searchable place — at work, at home, and everywhere in between. CAPTURE ANYTHING Jot a quick note, build a checklist, save a photo, an email or a PDF, or clip an article from the web before it disappears. Type it out, write by hand, snap a picture, or record a voice memo — whatever's fastest in the moment. Your ideas land in one place, ready when you are, so nothing gets lost on a sticky note or buried in your inbox. STAY ORGANIZED, EFFORTLESSLY Sort notes into notebooks and add tags, or just start writing and let structure follow. Group related notes together, pin the ones you reach for most, and keep work, school, and life neatly apart — without spending your day tidying up. Evernote keeps things in order so you can stay focused on the thinking. FIND WHAT YOU NEED, FAST Search across everything you've saved — including the text inside your images and PDFs. Ask in plain language and Semantic Search surfaces the right note, even when you can't remember the exact words or where you put it. The more you save, the more useful it becomes. MEET YOUR AI ASSISTANT Your AI Assistant clears away the busywork so you can stay in the thinking, working quietly alongside you. Record a conversation and Evernote AI transcribes and summarizes it for you; AI Transcription turns audio, images, and video into text; and AI Edit cleans up a rough draft, shortens it, or changes the tone while keeping it in your own voice. PLAN YOUR DAY Add due dates, reminders, and to-dos right inside your notes, so the next step is always clear and nothing slips through the cracks. Check things off as you go and keep momentum without switching apps. WORK EVERYWHERE Your notes sync automatically across iPhone, iPad, Mac, Windows, and the web — start on one device and pick up right where you left off on another. Evernote works offline too, so you're never locked out of your own ideas, even when you're far from a signal. FOR WORK, SCHOOL, AND LIFE - Plan projects, prep meetings, and keep every detail in one place. - Take lecture notes, organize research, and study smarter for exams. - Save recipes, plan trips, track goals, and remember the little things that matter. - Keep a journal, draft your next big idea, and capture inspiration whenever it strikes. "Its magic lies in its flexibility." — PCMag However you think, and whatever you're working on, Evernote helps you remember everything and get it done. Capture today's idea — and find it the moment you need it.

Nautiq — The Digital Logbook for Yacht & Ship Crew Nautiq is your daily command center for life at sea — whether you're on a rotation, full-time, or day-boat crew. Track your schedule, log your sea time, and keep every record you need for your career in one place. Home Dashboard See your on/off-board status at a glance, with next handover countdowns and recent activity — everything you need the moment you open the app. Unified Calendar Every rotation, sea time entry, holiday and course in one view, by day, month or full year. No rotation? No problem — full-time and day-boat crew get the same unified view for personal planner entries and passages. Rotation Planner Set up your on/off pattern and let Nautiq project your schedule forward automatically. Link a rotation opposite to see both schedules side by side, with handovers, on-board time, and projections kept in sync. Confirmed and projected totals show together, all the way to your chosen date, so you can see your rotations balance out before you confirm them. Sea Time Log Log every passage and get an instant sea service summary — days on board, days at sea, nautical miles, and more, broken down exactly how you need it for your record. Discharge Book A digital record of every sign-on and sign-off, mirroring your physical discharge book — the authoritative source for your on/off board status. Vessel Log Every vessel you've served on, with automatic days-on-board tracking and full vessel details. Personal Planner Track holidays, medical appointments and courses alongside your rotation, with totals for every category kept visible at a glance. Professional PDF Exports Every log — sea time, rotation, and personal planner — comes with a ready-to-share PDF summary, perfect for handover, compliance, or your own records. Nautiq is built for how crew actually work — not a generic scheduling app, but a purpose-built logbook for the maritime industry.
