Rivet vs ManualBook

Rivet puts your calendars, to-dos, notes, and workouts on one timeline. Plan what’s next and see what you’ve done, in one app. Smart Add Type or say what you want to add, like “lunch with Sam on Thursday at 1” or “move standup to 4”. Rivet shows the change first. Nothing changes until you tap Add. Plans Your to-dos and threads, one tap from the timeline. Group to-dos, notes, and meetings in a thread. Drag a to-do onto the timeline to give it a time. Calendars See Apple Calendar and Google Calendar events next to your to-dos, and create events from Rivet. Add a Google Meet link to an event and join from the timeline. Your Apple Reminders show too. Later Save links, text, images, and files from Safari or the share sheet. Keep things to watch, read, cook, visit, and buy. Read supported pages in Rivet, highlight passages, and add comments. Drag anything you saved onto the timeline to plan when you’ll do it. Fitness Build a workout, import routines from Hevy or Strong, or paste a workout as plain text. Add it to the timeline, then start it. Rivet takes you through each set and rest. See your rest timer on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island. Finished workouts save to Apple Health. Meeting notes Record a meeting and Rivet saves the transcript to Notes. On an iPhone with Apple Intelligence, Rivet also lists the key points and decisions. Rivet records only after you start a recording. Capsules Your workouts, the music you played, and what you watched show on the timeline as Capsules. Connect Apple Health, Apple Music, and Trakt to fill them. Memory See each week, month, and year: what you watched, listened to, read, and cooked, where you went, your meetings, and how you moved and slept. Time Machine Scroll back through past days and tap one to open it on the timeline. Sky The sky and the Earth behind the timeline follow the sun. Open Sky to choose a fixed time of day instead. Search Pull down on the timeline to search to-dos, events, notes, meetings, workouts, music, and what you watched.

Paper manuals pile up in drawers — and the one you need is never there. ManualBook turns that pile into a searchable library on your phone. Now it also answers your questions and finds the right manual from a photo. Scan a manual with your camera, snap a photo, or import a PDF. ManualBook reads every word on the page — in English, Spanish, German, French, Chinese, Japanese, and more — entirely on your device, so you can find any detail in seconds. How it works • Capture: the built-in document scanner auto-detects edges and straightens the page. Or import straight from Photos or Files — images and PDFs alike. • Recognize: on-device text recognition reads each page, including mixed English / Chinese / Japanese, with no internet and nothing uploaded. • Search: full-text search across every manual and every page, with matches highlighted and a tap to jump right to the page. • Ask: ask a question in plain language and get an answer drawn from your own manuals — generated by on-device AI, with page citations, and nothing uploaded. • Identify: not sure which manual you need? Snap a photo of the product and ManualBook matches it to the right manual — on-device. • Organize: group manuals into folders, add tags, and keep brand and notes together. • Share to ManualBook: send a PDF or photo from any app — Safari, Files, Mail, Photos — straight into your library, scanned and filed automatically. • Export: turn any manual back into a shareable PDF. Private by design • Everything runs on your iPhone. Text recognition and AI answers happen on-device — your manuals are never uploaded to us, and there are no accounts, servers, analytics, or trackers. • Optional iCloud Sync keeps your library in your own private iCloud, encrypted by Apple, so it's there on all your devices. We never see it. Free to start • Your first manuals are on the house. A single one-time purchase unlocks unlimited manuals and AI answers — no subscription. Stop hoarding paper. Scan it once, find it forever.
