About

Scribble

Read full description

Scribble is the fastest way to get a thought out of your head. Most to-do apps make you wait โ€” open the app, find the right list, tap a plus, then type. By then the thought's gone and you're back to scribbling on paper. Scribble opens straight to a blank line with the keyboard already up. Type it, hit return, and it's saved. That's the whole app. โ€ข Instant capture โ€” the keyboard is up the moment you open it. No menus, no lists to scroll past. โ€ข Rapid-fire โ€” hit return to save and keep going. Empty your head in one sitting. โ€ข Natural dates โ€” type "call mom friday" or "renew passport in 2 weeks" and Scribble quietly files the date for you. โ€ข Hands-free โ€” say "Hey Siri, Scribble" on your iPhone or Apple Watch and just speak. It lands in your list. โ€ข Calm by design โ€” pen-blue ink on warm paper. Nothing to configure, nothing to nag you. No account. No sign-up. No ads. Your jots stay on your device. Scribble isn't trying to be your project manager. It's the napkin that's always in your pocket โ€” just faster.

About

Kinfold

Read full description

Kinfold keeps your family's most important documents safe โ€” and gets you out the door when it's time to travel. EVERYTHING IMPORTANT, IN ONE PLACE Scan a passport, ID, driver's licence, visa or residence permit and Kinfold reads it for you โ€” on-device โ€” filling in the details, the photo and the expiry date. No typing, no uploading. Documents are organised by family member, so you can find anyone's papers in seconds. NEVER MISS A RENEWAL Kinfold tracks every expiry date and reminds you before a passport or visa lapses โ€” so a renewal never sneaks up on you the week before a trip. PACKED AND READY TO TRAVEL Plan a trip and Kinfold builds a packing list that adapts to where you're going and who's coming โ€” beach, city, ski, with kids or without. Add your stays and flights, see them on a map, and check at a glance whether everyone's documents are valid for the dates. Kinfold can even spot trips in your calendar and offer to set them up, and read a booking screenshot to fill in a stay or flight. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your family's documents never leave your devices unencrypted. Everything is stored on-device and synced privately through your own iCloud, end-to-end encrypted. There's no account to create and no server that can see your data โ€” because the most personal things your family owns shouldn't live on someone else's computer. SHARE WITH THE FAMILY YOU CHOOSE Send your partner or family a private invite link and they'll see the documents you've shared โ€” read-only โ€” right inside Kinfold on their own device. You decide what to share and with whom, and there's still no account to create. BUILT FOR FAMILIES ON THE MOVE โ€ข On-device scanning with automatic field, photo and expiry capture โ€ข Passports, IDs, licences, visas, residence permits and more โ€ข Renewal reminders before anything expires โ€ข Smart, adaptive packing lists for every kind of trip โ€ข Stays, flights, maps and entry/visa checks โ€ข Birthdays and a shared family schedule โ€ข Share a read-only copy of your vault with family via a private link โ€ข Face ID lock, end-to-end encrypted iCloud sync, no accounts Kinfold โ€” your family, kept safe and travel-ready.
