Catch an idea. Keep it in your own notes. Simple Memo helps you capture short thoughts by voice or text and keep them in your Obsidian workflow or your own email inbox. DIALOGUE MEMO: A NOTE THAT ASKS BACK Speak an unfinished idea and answer short follow-up questions by voice in the same memo composer. Tap the memo to stop the exchange and edit by typing. Organize the note when you are ready, then review it and use the existing Send button. Questions and note organization use Apple Intelligence on your iPhone. Dialogue Memo does not require Siri setup. A supported iPhone with iOS 26 or later, Apple Intelligence enabled, and a supported language model are required. Voice input also requires microphone permission. Your input remains available when the model cannot be used. CAPTURE THE THOUGHT Write or dictate on iPhone. Use a supported Apple Watch or Siri shortcut when your hands are busy. Save ideas, thoughts to revisit, and short notes before you forget them. KEEP IT WHERE YOU ALREADY LOOK Set up Obsidian integration to append notes as Markdown in your selected folder. Send notes to your own email address to read them in your usual inbox. SET UP YOUR DESTINATION Email delivery requires email verification and an internet connection. Obsidian integration requires selecting a destination folder and granting access. Syncing that folder across devices depends on your sync service and settings. Apple Watch and Siri workflows require supported devices and initial setup. Steps and connection requirements vary by capture method. FREE PLAN AND PREMIUM Free to download. The free plan allows up to 3 memo sends per day. Premium removes the sending limit. Saving to Obsidian without sending an email is a Premium feature. See the in-app purchase screen for current pricing, included features, and renewal terms. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled before renewal. Manage or cancel your subscription in your Apple account settings.
