Muse is your personal AI agent that gets things done, always working on what matters to you. It manages email, books dinners, tracks budgets, and finds deals, with your approval. PERSONAL PRODUCTIVITY Muse takes the busywork off your plate. It manages scheduling conflicts, books reservations, sets reminders, and follows up with people, so birthdays, plans, and deadlines don't slip. Stay on top of your calendar, email, and daily tasks without carrying it all in your head. SHOPPING & DEALS Muse compares prices, tracks price drops, and alerts you the moment something you want goes on sale. AI-powered shopping that can actually buy on your behalf, with your OK. CONNECT YOUR APPS You decide what Muse can access. Link your email, calendar, Instagram, Facebook, health and fitness data, and finances. Approve actions before they happen. Muse gets smarter with every connection. GROW YOUR SMALL BUSINESS Give Muse a goal, like finding new customers or growing sales, and it gets it done. Connect your Instagram Business Account, Facebook Pages, and Meta ad accounts in a few clicks, and Muse understands your business: what you sell, what your brand sounds like, and what customers keep asking about. SAVE MONEY Muse helps you understand where your money is going. It tracks expenses, audits subscriptions, flags charges you forgot about, cancels what you don't need, and helps you hit a savings goal, checking with you before it cancels or spends. Get financial insights without the spreadsheet. HEALTH & FITNESS Muse is your AI fitness coach. It builds a custom workout or meal plan from data you choose to share, tracks calories and nutrition, monitors sleep and wellness, and adjusts your training day by day. Whether it's running, eating better, or building a habit, Muse coaches you through it. SHARE A TASK, START TO FINISH Hand Muse a whole job and it sees it through: the research, the comparisons, the back-and-forth, the bookings. Sell your car for more, negotiate a bill down, or plan and book a whole trip. A better result than you'd have managed alone. ALWAYS WORKING FOR YOU Muse keeps things moving after you close the app. It monitors, follows up, and sends a notification when something needs your attention, so nothing falls through the cracks. IN YOUR CONTROL Approve actions before they happen. Muse keeps a full activity log, and lets you revoke any connector anytime. DESIGN THE MUSE APP, JUST FOR YOU Describe what you want in chat, and Muse builds it for you: a tracker, a dashboard, a planner, a mood board, exactly the way you want it. Organize the Muse app around your routine: add spaces to your sidebar or main tabs and swap them out whenever you like. Name your Muse, shape how it communicates, and make it your own. VOICE MODE Talk to your custom avatar in real time, audio only or as a live animated video: it listens, reacts, and responds as you speak. Want a different voice? Just describe in chat, and that's how your Muse will sound. SMART, BUT STILL LEARNING Muse may be inaccurate or take unexpected actions, so check in to keep it on track and intervene as needed.

About

JKST Note

Read full description

Some notes are worth a folder and a title. Most are not. JKST Note is for the other kind — the thought, the todo, the expense, the password you just made up — captured in seconds and then left alone. Tap the plus, pick a type, type, save. No folder to choose, no title to invent, no screen to navigate afterwards. The loop is capture and done. CAPTURE WITHOUT A DETOUR Start a new note from Control Center, the Lock Screen, or the Action button. Or say "Jot this in JKST Note" to Siri; five spoken shortcuts open the same capture form. Use the share sheet to send a webpage, selected text, or image into JKST Note. Attach a photo from your library or take one with the camera, or record audio for an on-device transcript. NOTES WITH A SHAPE A note here is a small typed card rather than a blank page. Seven types come built in — Jot, Todo, Log, Account, Expense, Contact, Link — each with its own fields, and Todo items tick off as a checklist. Invent your own types on your iPhone or Mac: add a field, choose its kind, mark it required, prefilled, or secret. Editing a type never rewrites the notes you already captured. SECRETS THAT STAY SECRET Mark a field secret and its value is encrypted on your iPhone, shown as dots, and left out of search. Revealing it or copying it takes a fresh Face ID check (or your passcode) every single time, however recently you unlocked the app. A revealed value re-hides after ten seconds. A copied one clears itself from the clipboard, and never travels to your Mac or iPad. Write down the six-word recovery code and a lost phone does not mean lost secrets. It is also how a new iPhone or Mac opens your secrets: until you enter it there, they stay locked on that device. The app tells you that plainly instead of burying it. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account to create, no analytics, and no server of ours. iCloud Sync is optional and asks first. With it on, your notes go to your own private iCloud, which we cannot open; secret fields stay end-to-end encrypted with a key only your devices hold, and everything else uses Apple's iCloud encryption, which is end-to-end too if you turn on Advanced Data Protection. With it off, the app makes no network requests at all. The app locks behind Face ID, and the app switcher shows a cover instead of your notes. FIND IT LATER One reverse-chronological stream, filter chips per type, and full-text search across everything you captured — except your secret values, which are never indexed. Deleted notes wait thirty days in Recently Deleted before they go. ON YOUR MAC TOO The same notes in a native Mac app, with Quick Capture from any app on a keyboard shortcut. Turn on iCloud Sync on both to keep them in step. One purchase covers JKST Note on iPhone and Mac. THE NAME Jot, Keep, Search, Trust. Also Jot, Keep, Secure, Type. Between them they name the five things this app is about, which is more than four letters usually manage. And, simply: Just keep stuff together. Requires iOS 18 or later on iPhone. The Mac app requires macOS 15 or later. There is no iPad version.
