Your best ideas show up when you can't act on them. Walking, on the bus, mid-conversation, half-asleep. By the time you're back at a desk, the thought is gone. Notes apps were supposed to fix this, but they turn into a flat pile you never reopen, where nothing connects and nothing comes back. Oryne is built for the catch, not the filing. Hold to speak, let go, and it's caught. From there, on-device intelligence does the part you never get around to: it names the thought, finds its themes, gathers it into a current with the thoughts it belongs with, and brings it back to you when it matters. WHAT YOU CAN DO Catch it in one gesture. A capture bar sits at the bottom of Tide and the Library: tap it to type, or hold the disc and talk. Let go and the thought is saved, with ten seconds to undo. Slide up to keep listening through a longer thought. Catch it without opening the app. One press on the Action Button, in Control Center, or on the widget, and Oryne is already listening. Share links, text, and images into Oryne from any app. Catch it from your wrist. Press the Action Button on Apple Watch Ultra, tap the complication, or say "Whisper to Oryne", and speak. Your whisper reaches your iPhone on its own. Let it organize itself. Every thought gets a title and themes on its own, and a long whisper gets a short summary. You never tag, file, or sort. Start the day on Tide. The thought that came back today, what just drifted in, and your currents, in one glance. Nearby shows what sits close to it. Let it rest sends it back under. Ask your ideas anything. One question, one grounded answer, and every answer lists the thoughts it was drawn from. Summarize reads a whole current or a search in one tap. Find anything in the Library. Search, Recent and Related, with every filter in one menu. Grow an idea without losing the original. Branch any thought into a Question, a Concept, a Research direction, or a Project. Catch a link, keep the meaning. Drop in a link and Oryne reads the page on-device and summarizes what matters, so the reference becomes part of your thinking, not a dead bookmark. Think in English or Chinese. Voice is transcribed on-device in both, and every title stays in your thought's own language. Take it with you. Export the whole Ocean as one zip: a Markdown file per current, a full JSON backup, and your images. PRIVATE BY DESIGN The intelligence runs on your device, not in someone else's cloud. Your thoughts sync across your own devices through your private iCloud and stay yours. Nothing is mined, sold, or used to train anyone's model. Oryne is a quiet place to think, and a way to make sure the thinking adds up.
