Device-native, private AI notes, no token cost. Capture voice memos, photos, links, videos, and rough ideas. Mindverse uses Apple Intelligence where available to help you find, organize, and transform what you save, then keeps the same notes available on iPhone and Mac through your own Google Drive. AI THAT RUNS ON YOUR IPHONE Mindverse uses Apple Intelligence where available. Your personal note content can be searched, organized, and transformed without a separate cloud AI account or per-token charges from Mindverse.

TURN NOTES INTO USEFUL OUTPUTS - Summarize a long note. - Clean up rough writing. - Create flashcards. - Turn notes into checklists. - Combine several notes into one. - Run a one-off prompt or write a reusable skill in plain English. GOOGLE DRIVE SYNC. NO LOCK-IN. Google Drive sync is included. Mindverse syncs notes, photos, and voice recordings across your devices through your own Drive, not Mindverse servers. Every note remains a plain Markdown file on your device, so you can open it in other tools or keep a readable backup without Mindverse. There are no ads, no proprietary note format, and no per-token charges for on-device AI. BUILT FOR IPHONE AND MAC Mindverse supports App Intents and Apple Intelligence on iPhone and Mac where available. Your notes remain portable Markdown files and stay in sync through your own Google Drive.
