Your memory for everyone who matters. Say a voice note, type a line, or drop in a photo. Cresca turns it into the parts that matter and keeps them where you'll find them. • Capture what happened. Speak it, type it, or add a photo, a video, a file or a link. It's saved right away, and with AI on, Cresca sorts it out for you. • One place for each person. Who they are, what you talked about, what you promised. Cresca suggests where things belong and you have the last word. • Ask about anyone. "What did we discuss with Acme?" The answer comes back with the notes it was drawn from. Photos, files and short videos can go with your question. • Summaries you can lean on. Before you see someone again, read back what matters instead of scrolling months of notes. • Reminders and your own schedule. Put a reminder on any person, note or recording, keep your own events, and keep them in sync with your iPhone Calendar. • Your card, one tap. Share it by QR, NFC, or Apple Wallet, and keep everyone you meet. • On your wrist. The Apple Watch app shows your badge QR code and inbox, and records voice memos. • Made for events. Check in, meet people, and never lose the thread.
