Post Notes

Read full description

How much do you remember from yesterday's meeting? What about last Tuesday's? If you're like most people, the details start fading within minutes. Post Notes fixes this by integrating with your calendar and automatically sending a reminder after every meeting, prompting you to take notes, add to-dos, and attach relevant files while the conversation is still fresh in your mind. No more scrambling to recall what was discussed. No more forgotten action items. Just a simple, timely nudge that helps you to turn every meeting into something useful. HOW IT WORKS Post Notes syncs with your device's calendar and detects when meetings end. You'll receive a notification reminding you to capture what matters: a quick note, a follow-up task, or a file you referenced during the call. It takes seconds, and it makes all the difference. CAPTURE WHAT MATTERS Write brief meeting notes in your own words. Add to-do items so action items never slip through the cracks. Attach images directly to any meeting entry. Everything stays organized and tied to the meeting it came from. FIND ANYTHING, FAST Search and filter your past meeting notes by date, keyword, or meeting title. Whether you need to recall a decision from last month or find that file from a client call, Post Notes makes it effortless. SHARE AND EXPORT Need to send meeting notes to your team?

About

Fire Notes

Features
Read full description

Fire Notes is a private notebook for writing, scanning paper, and dictating by voice - with one unusual feature: you can burn a note. Real fire, rendered live on your screen - the paper catches, curls, chars and falls away as ash. When the flame goes out, the note is gone. It's oddly satisfying. It's also the point. WRITE ANYTHING • A fast, beautiful editor with rich text, checklists, headings and highlights • Choose your paper and your handwriting — from clean type to a looping script • Photos, shelves and pinned notes on a board you can rearrange by hand • Everything stays searchable, right up until you let it go LET IT GO • Burn a note in a moment, or hold for the full cinematic ceremony • Blow on the microphone to light the flame — yes, really • Burn-after timers: write something tonight, let it release itself tomorrow • Every burn leaves an ember in Ashes — proof something was released, without the words SCAN YOUR PAPER • Point the camera at a receipt, bill or letter — Fire Notes finds the edges, straightens the page and files it • Every scan is read on your device, so the words inside are searchable. Find a receipt by what it says, not by what you named it • Scans live in their own shelves — Receipts, Bills, Documents — separate from your notes • And when a document has done its job, shred it. The same fire, for paper you're finished with PRIVATE BY DESIGN • Your notes and your scans live on your device and in your own iCloud, never on our servers • Face ID app lock, plus a separate lock for the notes that matter most • No account. No tracking. No ads. ALSO IN THE BOX • Dictate a note out loud with on-device speech recognition • On-device AI to fix, rewrite or reshape what you wrote — nothing is sent away • Export a note as text or PDF when you decide to keep it after all FIRE NOTES+ A one-time purchase. No subscription, ever. It unlocks the document scanner, voice dictation, the AI writing tools and clean, watermark-free exports. Buy it once and it's yours, on every device you sign in with. The notebook itself stays free. Write as much as you like. Burn as much as you like. Write it down. Let it go.

The call
