Index is a workspace for the creative process. Bring your references, ideas, and project work together, and put the inspiration you collect to use. Save links and images through the iOS share sheet. Keep them in your Inbox to sort later, or add them where they belong. When you’re ready to work on something, your material is ready to use. COLLECT AND RETURN Keep references in a visual library. Organize them into folders, add tags, and use search and filters to find what you need. EXPLORE ON BOARDS Bring references together, explore visual directions, and add context with sections and captions. BRING THE PROJECT TOGETHER Keep your brief, saves, boards, documents, and tasks in one place. Record ideas, plan next steps, and return to the work with its context close at hand. SHARE YOUR THINKING Share boards so clients and collaborators can view your references and leave comments.
