About

neboola

Read full description

Having the idea was never the hard part. neboola is the easiest place to catch a thought — and the only one you'll actually want to look at. Catch ideas the moment they land, shape them at your own pace, and turn the ones worth keeping into a real project. CAPTURE NOW Get it down in one tap. No folder to choose, no fields to fill. Catch the thought now; make sense of it later. SHAPE IT LATER Your raw thoughts wait in your orbit — out of your head and out of your way. When you're ready, shape the ones that matter into groups and give the idea its form. Capturing and organizing are two different moments; neboola never makes you do both at once. WATCH IT BECOME A PROJECT Break an idea into notes, gather them into groups, and turn the ones you need to act on into tasks. Flag the thoughts worth remembering as highlights. A fuzzy idea becomes something with edges — something you can actually start. GIVE IT STAGES Big ideas don't finish in one list. Gather notes into a milestone and give your idea its stages: each one fills as you finish what's inside it, then moves to your Archive when it's done. What's in front of you is always what's still ahead. SEE YOUR IDEAS MOVE Open neboola and your ideas are right there. The ones you're working glow bright and sit close at hand; the ones you've drifted from dim to quiet embers. Your whole mind at a glance — what's burning, what's resting, nothing lost. SAFE IN ICLOUD Your ideas are backed up to your private iCloud account and sync across your devices. Nothing to set up. — neboola is free for 14 days, then continues as a monthly or annual auto-renewable subscription. It renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends — manage or cancel anytime in your Apple Account settings. Terms of Use (EULA): https://neboola.app/en/terms/
