Speak. It's filed. Say "remind me tomorrow at 6 pm to call the garage" and Chapeau creates the reminder, date included. Say "for groceries: milk, eggs, bread" and it makes the checklist. Everything happens on your iPhone, with no server and no account. ONE BUTTON, EVERYTHING FILED Hold the button and talk, or tap once to start and again to stop. Your dictation becomes a note, an idea, a task, a dated reminder, an event or a list, and lands in the right place. One dictation can hold several requests. WHAT YOU SAY COMES FIRST "Put it in my calendar", "note that", "make me a list": your instruction wins. Dates and times are worked out on your iPhone, "Tuesday evening" included. NOTES, REMINDERS, CALENDAR Three sections in the app, and everything can be edited by hand: title, date, notes, list items. Search finds everything. Reminders ring on time, with Mark as done, In 1 hour and Tomorrow right from the notification. Deleted something by mistake? Undo. NOTHING LEAVES YOUR IPHONE Transcription and filing run on the device, with Apple's speech recognition and on-device model. The audio is deleted as soon as the dictation is filed. No account, no analytics, no server. FREE, WITHOUT LIMITS Unlimited dictation and filing, editing, search, reminder notifications, the Dictate widget, Control Center and the Action button, and 3 color themes. CHAPEAU+ Act on what you already have ("add butter to the grocery list", "check off the milk", "move the dentist to 3 pm"), ask about your notes ("what's the gate code?"), Today and List widgets to check things off from the Home Screen, an alert before each event and a morning summary, and 5 more themes with matching app icons. Without Chapeau+, such a request is filed as a normal dictation: nothing is lost. Chapeau+ Monthly: $2.99 per month. Chapeau+ Yearly: $19.99 per year, with 7 days free first, then $19.99 per year. Chapeau+ Lifetime: $29.99 once. Prices in US dollars; the app shows your local price. All three include Family Sharing. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the period. Nothing is removed if you stop. The smartest filing needs Apple Intelligence (iPhone 15 Pro or later); without it, Chapeau files with its own rules. Dictation in English, French, Spanish, German, Italian and Portuguese. iPhone only.
