You screenshot things to deal with later. Later never comes. RainCheck turns what you save into a card you can act on โ€” the full recipe, the ratings and who made it, the price and the buy link, the address with directions โ€” and files it somewhere you'll find it again. And it never asks for your photo library. RainCheck only ever sees the one thing you share with it. HOW IT WORKS Share a screenshot, an Instagram post, a tweet, a TikTok, or a link to RainCheck from the share sheet. That's the whole interaction. RainCheck reads it, works out what it is, and builds the card. WHAT YOU GET BACK - Movies & Shows โ€” IMDb and Rotten Tomatoes ratings, year, runtime, genre, director, plot - Recipes โ€” the full ingredient list and steps, prep and cook time, servings - Products โ€” price, brand, and a working link to buy it - Places โ€” address, phone, rating, price range, and one-tap directions - Events โ€” date, venue, and one tap to add it to your calendar - Learning โ€” the topic explained, with study tips, practice examples and what to learn next - Fashion โ€” outfits kept as a visual grid, filtered by season, colour and style - Bookmarks โ€” posts, threads and links, kept readable FIND IT LATER, IN YOUR WORDS Search the way you remember it, not the way it was written. "that pasta with the lemon" finds the recipe. Everything is sorted into collections on its own, so you never file anything by hand. THE LINK YOU DIDN'T SAVE Screenshotted a post and lost the link? RainCheck goes and finds the original. PRIVACY - No photo library access. Ever. RainCheck cannot see a single screenshot you don't hand it. - Adding an event to your calendar uses write-only access โ€” RainCheck can create an event but can never read your calendar. - Analytics never receive your screenshots or the text inside them. - Your library syncs through your own iCloud account. RainCheck is a subscription. Your subscription unlocks saving and every card type above. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
