RecallBox is an intelligent tool for organizing screenshots, links, and knowledge, designed for anyone who has too many screenshots, scattered information, and trouble finding things when they need them. Quickly collect important information: You can bring everyday content into RecallBox through automatic photo library import, Shortcuts, the Action Button, manual image selection, or by saving web links directly. The app organizes all materials in a timeline, making it easy to look back, browse, and find what you need. AI-powered knowledge cards: With AI, RecallBox can automatically identify key information in screenshots and links, extract titles, tags, summaries, quotes, tables, and structured content, and turn them into searchable, reusable knowledge cards. Meeting schedules from chats, study material screenshots, payment records, delivery updates, travel pages, web articles, and quick ideas can all be transformed from scattered materials into a clear and organized personal knowledge base. Smart to-dos and reminders: For content that includes times, deadlines, meetings, tasks, delivery milestones, or travel details, RecallBox can intelligently generate reminders and supports local notifications, system Reminders, and Calendar integration. Important items are grouped by Today, Overdue, and the next 7 days, helping you follow up on time without relying entirely on memory. Efficient search and long-term management: RecallBox also supports full-text search, tag organization, favorites, archiving, iCloud sync, and cleanup of processed screenshots. You can keep the knowledge content while removing the original screenshots from your system photo library, making information easier to find, your photo library cleaner, and everyday organization simpler. Give your screenshots, links, and temporary information to RecallBox, and turn scattered content into structured knowledge that is searchable, remindable, and manageable.

Everything you save. Ready when you need it. Stuff is a private home for your notes, documents, screenshots, links and voice recordings across iPhone, iPad and Mac. Save something now, find it when it matters, and put it to work without starting from scratch. SAVE FIRST. KEEP MOVING. Capture text, images, PDFs, Word documents, links, files and voice notes. Paste, drag, share, pick from Photos or Files, use Shortcuts and widgets, or capture from the Mac menu bar. Stuff saves the original before processing it in the background. FIND WHAT YOU NEED. Quick Find brings items, templates and saved facts into one search, with actions to open or copy a result. On Mac, press Command-K to get there without breaking your flow. Search beyond filenames: find words in documents, images, scans and voice transcripts. Use natural language or exact text, filter your library, and see what matched. MAKE YOUR SPACE FEEL LIKE YOURS. Choose Paper, Ocean, Universe or Worlds. Explore a library of document previews, browse grouped stacks, and keep each project, client or collection together in Spaces. Pin favorites and switch views to suit the way you work. COPY THE DETAIL. SKIP THE DIGGING. Quick Copy keeps useful details within reach: names, email addresses, phone numbers, addresses, dates, links and references. Pin the values you use often, return to recent copies, and check the source before you use a detail. You stay in control of what gets copied or pasted. WRITE ONCE. REPLY FASTER. Turn repeated replies into templates with typed blanks. Fill from Stuff suggests details from your saved content, with sources you can check. Review the completed reply, then copy or share it. Write Markdown notes, preview documents, present PDFs, or turn a Space's photos into a deck. SEE HOW YOUR STUFF CONNECTS. Graph brings your items, tags and Spaces into view. Focus on a project's neighborhood to explore the connections in your library. PRIVATE AND LOCAL BY DESIGN. OCR, extraction, semantic search, embeddings, transcripts and optional local intelligence run on your device. Your library syncs through iCloud when available; downloaded models and search data stay device-local. If you enable link reading, Stuff sends only a public page address to Mobeera's reader service so the page can become searchable. It never sends capability URLs such as private shared-document links. You can turn link reading off at any time. STUFF FREE AND STUFF PRO Stuff Free includes every capture, search, sync, voice, template, Copy, Graph, preview, and presentation feature, plus one Space and up to 20 link reads per day. Stuff Pro adds unlimited Spaces and up to 200 link reads per day. SUBSCRIPTION TERMS Stuff Pro is available as an auto-renewable subscription: Prices may vary by country or region.
