Clone+
Read full descriptionHide full description
Your ideas. Your connections. Your AI thinking partner. Clone+ is a Zettelkasten-style note app for growing your own knowledge network. You link notes, write down why they belong together, and the AI thinks with you along the connections you made. The AI suggests; you decide. Most note apps remember things for you. Clone+ helps you understand them. CONNECT IDEAS INTO KNOWLEDGE • Link notes with bidirectional links and backlinks • Record why you linked two notes and what kind of relationship it is — the AI follows your reasoning • See your whole knowledge network as a graph • The AI suggests related notes and link candidates; you choose which to keep • Split long articles into reusable atomic notes (also on the Free plan) • Filter across everything with tags THINK WITH AI, NOT JUST SEARCH • AI Chat — answers draw on your own notes and link to the notes they used • Web search — used only when needed, with sources shown • Agent — "create a note and link it to related ones" in a single request. Review the result before anything is saved, and edit it on the spot • Quizzes — multiple choice, true/false, multi-select, fill-in-the-blank, ordering, and free answer graded by AI • Summaries of long notes and automatic titles CAPTURE FROM ANYWHERE • URL and YouTube summaries — paste a link and keep the key points as a note • Image understanding — the AI reads what is in your images, so chat and quizzes can use them • OCR — pull text from photos and handwriting • Voice input — speak while editing a note or in chat • Quick capture from the home screen widget • Send text to Clone+ from any app's share sheet • Rich text, tables, images, and auto-save • Color themes USE YOUR NOTES FROM YOUR AI TOOLS Clone+ offers a connector for external AI tools. Search your notes or add to them right from the conversation you are already having, without switching apps. Available on the Free plan too. YOUR NOTES STAY YOURS • Offline-first — works without a connection and syncs when you are back online • Encrypted in transit (TLS); only you can access your data • Clone+ does not use your notes to train AI • Protected Notes are never sent to AI and are encrypted before they are stored in the cloud • Turn off sending data to AI at any time in Settings WHO CLONE+ IS FOR • People who want their notes to become knowledge, not just another notepad • People practicing Zettelkasten or building a second brain • Students and lifelong learners • Researchers, writers, and creators • Anyone building a personal knowledge management (PKM) system FREE TO START Linking, the graph, AI chat, summaries, quizzes, and the connector are all available for free. Premium removes ads, raises AI usage limits 5x, lets chat reference up to 30 notes (5 on Free), makes agent runs unlimited (once a day on Free), and removes the limit on knowledge bases.

TuckBack

Put it down. Get it back when it matters. TuckBack is a pocket for the things you can't do right now. Tuck in a thought, a voice note or a photo, and it comes back at the moment you can act on it: tomorrow at 7, when you get home, ten minutes before your call with Sam. The reason is still attached, and one small next step is ready. TUCK IT • Type it, say it, snap it or scan it. Messy is fine. • "Call Ravi tomorrow evening" sets the time for you, in English, Hinglish, Hindi, Spanish and German. • One thought hiding three jobs? TuckBack offers to split it. • Forward a message to TuckBack on WhatsApp and it becomes a Tuck. • Your words are saved on your iPhone first, before anything clever happens. GET IT BACK • At a time, at a place ("when I get home"), or around a meeting, even if the meeting moves. • Ask Siri "What's back today?" and hear your day while your hands are busy. • The Dynamic Island holds what you're doing now, with Done and Later one tap away. • Widgets you can tap: close a Tuck or bring it back later from your Home Screen. CLOSE IT • Done, waiting on someone, later, or let it go on purpose. Every ending counts. • Nothing turns red and nothing shouts. Running late gets one calm choice: a new time, or let it go. SMALL MOMENTS OF DELIGHT • Every Tuck lands under its own sky, following the real light where you live: sunrise, dusk, monsoon rain, winter snow, autumn leaves. • Stillpoint gives you a quiet minute, a look back at what moved, and one Tuck to carry forward. LISTS, HABITS AND PEOPLE • Nests: to-do lists, private habits and shared lists, started in one tap. • Keep promises next to the people they're for, and send a short Gentle Note. • Invite friends: share your code, friends get a week of Premium, and you can earn up to a year. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT • Works without an account or a connection. • No ads. No tracking. • It never sends, pays, books or decides anything for you. It drafts; you tap. • It never reads your notifications, your clipboard or your other apps. • Apple Intelligence suggestions run on your iPhone. Your own OpenAI, Gemini or Claude key is optional, and nothing is sent until you agree. TuckBack is here to help you finish what matters, not to keep you busy. TuckBack Premium is optional. Capture, Returns, closing a Tuck, local search and the archive stay free. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and can be managed in your Apple Account settings.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: TuckBack at none against Clone+'s shown. TuckBack also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs monthly). Clone+'s advantage is iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
