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. CAPTURE MORE THAN TEXT - Photograph whiteboards, documents, or receipts and make the text searchable. - Save articles and YouTube videos with their content attached, not just the URL. - Write in Markdown or plain text. - Share from other apps directly into Mindverse. - Record voice memos alongside your written notes. ASK YOUR OWN NOTES Ask a question and get an answer grounded in what you saved, with the source notes still in view. Mindverse uses Apple Intelligence where available by default. 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.

Saved a lot, but never opened it again? Collection Monster brings links, WeChat articles, images, screenshots, text, and files into one clean library, then uses the AI model you choose to turn them into readable, searchable, and actionable knowledge. CAPTURE WITHOUT INTERRUPTING YOUR FLOW Save from the Share Sheet, Quick Add, Photos, or Files. Your item is stored first, so you can move on without waiting for AI processing. SHARE AND REVISIT Create revocable links to saved items. Preview the title, summary, and source before sharing; long-press a card to move it to a library or set a reminder. READ THE SUMMARY, THEN THE FULL ARTICLE AI can create an introduction, key takeaways, tags, a value score, and suggested next actions. The original article and AI guide live on the same page, and web links open directly in your browser. CLEANER WEB READING Collection Monster extracts the main text and useful images while reducing avatars, QR codes, ads, and decorative graphics. ONE PLACE FOR EVERY IMAGE Browse saved images in a masonry gallery. Swipe through originals, select and delete multiple images, or save images to Photos. REDISCOVER WHAT MATTERS Recommendations surface valuable and actionable saves. Monster Radio can read the original text or the AI-organized version aloud. YOUR MODEL, YOUR CHOICE Use supported compatible model providers. API keys are kept in the device Keychain. Without AI configuration, Collection Monster still works as a local-first reading and collection library. Also includes duplicate-link detection, Trash, iPad layouts, native experiences for Mac, Apple Watch, and Apple TV, plus optional iCloud sync. Saving is only the beginning. Make every item easy to revisit and ready for your next action. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
