Tac! OPEN. SPEAK. TAC. DONE! Your voice. At just the right moment. Something you need to remember? Tell Tac! Forget complicated reminders, endless menus, and settings you have to enter manually. With Tac!, all you have to do is speak. The app understands what you say and prepares your reminder, recognizing dates, times, locations, and even your preferred notification sound. You speak. Tac! takes care of the rest. SPEAK TO TAC! Speak naturally, just as you would to another person. • “Remind me to take my medication at 8, with 3 cuckoo sounds.” • “Tomorrow at 10, I need to call Mark, with 4 cuckoo sounds.” • “When I get home, remind me to find that document, with the It's Time sound.” • “I have a meeting on Friday at 3 PM, with 5 cuckoo sounds.” Tac! interprets your words and prepares your reminder using the information you provide. You can even choose the notification sound for each Tac using just your voice. A more personal way to remember what matters. YOUR VOICE. RIGHT ON TIME. Some things are better remembered in your own voice. Record a message, choose when or where you want to receive it, and let Tac! remind you. When the moment arrives, you'll receive a notification and can listen to your recorded message. One message. Just once. No endless repetitions. No nagging reminders. Just your voice, exactly when you need it. REMINDERS THAT KNOW WHERE YOU ARE Not every reminder needs a specific time. With Tac!, you can create reminders that activate when you arrive at a particular location. • Remember your shopping when you reach the supermarket. • Don't forget an errand when you pass through a certain area. • Hear an important message when you get home. The right place becomes the right moment. WORKS WITH SIRI, TOO Hands full? Want to create a reminder even faster? With Siri, you can start Tac!'s intelligent voice recording using your voice. Speak, record your message, and let Tac! recognize the details. Fewer steps. A more natural experience. GIVE THE GIFT OF YOUR VOICE Some words deserve to arrive at a special moment. With Voice Capsules, you can record a message for someone and choose when or where they can listen to it. • A birthday greeting delivered on the perfect day. • A surprise waiting at a special place. • A personal dedication saved for the right moment. • A message for someone who means the world to you. Your voice is kept safe until the moment you choose. Not before. Not after. Because some words mean even more when they arrive at just the right time. TAC! PREMIUM — PAY ONCE. YOURS FOREVER. Tac! is also available to use for free. Want even more freedom?
