Talk Memo vs Life Tile

Talk Memo is an Apple Watch voice notes app: what you record on your wrist turns into a text note on your iPhone. Tap once, speak, and on-device speech recognition does the rest. Send any memo straight to Notion, Bear or Obsidian, or anywhere through the Share Sheet. A good idea hits while you're out running. You stop, dig out your phone, type it. By the time you start running again, the flow is gone. That's why this exists. Lift your wrist, speak, lower it. No phone, no fuss. Pay once, use forever. No subscriptions. No accounts. Your voice never leaves your device. — How it works Tap your Watch screen — the red button starts recording. Tap again to stop. The recording slips over to your iPhone, where on-device speech recognition turns it into text. Memos stack up in chronological order. — Four ways to launch from your wrist · Action Button (Apple Watch Ultra) — one press of the orange button · Watch face complication — works with any face you like · Dock favorites — side button, tap · Siri / Shortcuts — voice command or automation — Send it where you actually keep your notes I keep mine in Notion. Built this so anyone using any notes app could route their memos cleanly. · iOS Share Sheet — Messages, Mail, Slack, anywhere · Notion API — direct page creation in your database · Obsidian — markdown straight into your vault · Bear — one tap, note created — iPhone and iPad together Memos sync automatically over iCloud. Record on iPhone + Apple Watch, then read or export them on iPad in any app you like. Your Notion and Obsidian setup also follows you across devices on the same Apple ID. — Speech recognition in your language The app picks a recognition language that matches your device — Korean, English, Japanese, Chinese, and 50+ more languages Apple supports out of the box. Override it from Settings any time. — Privacy Recording and transcription both happen on-device. Memos sync across your Apple devices through your own iCloud account — never through our servers. We collect anonymous usage analytics to improve the app — it never includes your voice or memo text. Notion integration runs through your own API key, talking to Notion's servers under your control. — Made for · Runners, walkers, drivers — anyone whose ideas come while moving · Notion and Obsidian users curating their note systems · Apple Watch wearers who want voice capture straight from the wrist · People who'd rather pay once than subscribe forever

Your day as a Mondrian-inspired grid. Passive. Private. On-device. Life Tile tracks where you spend your time and shows it as a colorful square grid. Your phone knows where you are. Life Tile uses that to build a picture of your day. Each colored block is a place or activity, sized by how long you were there. At a glance, you see exactly where your time went. HOW IT WORKS Life Tile detects the places you visit in the background. Set up a place once — name it, pick a category — and it's tracked automatically from then on. You can also correct or adjust entries when needed. PRIVACY Your location and activity data stays on your device. No accounts, no servers, no ads. Optional iCloud sync between your own devices only. Anonymous usage stats can be turned off in Settings. SQUARE TILE CHART Your day as a grid of colored blocks. It stays readable even with many categories. The bigger the block, the more time you spent there. TREEMAP, MAP & LIST Zoom out to your day, week, or month. The treemap shows proportionally where your time goes. Switch to map view to see every place you visited, or list view to browse your timeline. Patterns and habits become obvious. TWO-LEVEL CATEGORIES Organize your activities with main categories and subcategories. Exercise > Outdoor Run, Entertainment > Concert, Meals > Lunch — as detailed as you want. SLEEP & WORKOUTS Pulls sleep and workout data from Apple Health to complete the picture of your day. No extra setup needed. WIDGETS & SHORTCUTS Check your day from the home screen. Widgets show your current activity and today's breakdown. Shortcuts let you automate common actions. CSV IMPORT Coming from another time-tracking app? Import your CSV data and keep your history.
