About

Your address book knows someone's name and number. It doesn't know who they are, what you talked about, or who introduced you. Netwerk adds that layer. WHO IS THIS AGAIN One line per person is often enough: "met through Ruud, does procurement for the city". You search by what you do still remember — a topic, a role, half a sentence from a note. WHEN DID WE LAST SPEAK Log a conversation in two taps, or pull an event straight from your calendar. The timeline shows how the contact is going. WHO INTRODUCED US Connect people to each other and see the small network around someone at a glance. Tap a name and they become the center. WHO TO CATCH UP WITH No single interval for everyone. Netwerk learns how often you two normally speak and says something only when you're well past that — with the reason shown. No counters, no badges, no nudging. This is an archive, not a social network. IT STAYS YOURS No server, no account, no ads. Everything lives on your device and syncs through your own iCloud between iPhone and Mac. Summaries come from the language model inside the device itself; your notes never leave it. Requires iOS 26 or macOS 26. The AI features need Apple Intelligence; without it, everything else works as normal.
