For supported content, BriefFeed generates a summary after fetching or opening the page. Some pages need to load and have their text expanded in the reader first. See key points while browsing Safari Enable the included Safari extension on iPhone and iPad to see AI summaries beside supported posts, discussions, and pages. The extension summarizes supported content already loaded on the page, helping you choose what to read in depth. Keep what is worth returning to Save summaries with their source links and browse your saved items by author. Sync your library across iPhone, iPad, and Mac through your Apple iCloud account, without creating a separate BriefFeed account. Continue from the browser extension Connect a compatible BriefFeed browser extension on your Mac to exchange saved items through an on-device connection while the Mac app is running. Those items then join your iCloud-synced Apple library. Supported content On selected websites, the Safari extension supports social posts, discussions, articles, repositories, paper pages, podcast show notes, and available video text. Support depends on the site, page type, and accessible content. Video summaries use only the current video's available transcript, subtitles, timeline text, or chapters. Podcast summaries use show notes. BriefFeed does not directly analyze audio or video frames. Links that cannot be summarized can still be saved for later. Optional Notion sync Connect your own Notion integration to sync items you explicitly save in the Safari extension. The Notion token stays in that extension's local storage. Synced content goes directly from Safari to Notion, without passing through BriefFeed servers. Stay connected to the source Summary requests use the source text and limited source information needed for the summary. The extension does not send cookies or account sessions to BriefFeed. Original links remain available so you can check details and read in context.

Sticky Notea is a lightweight, thoughtfully designed place for the words you want to keep close. When an idea arrives, you shouldn't have to build a system before writing it down. Open the app, start typing, and your thought becomes a note you can see, revisit, and arrange with ease. Use it for a quick reminder, today's to-do list, a coffee recipe, a travel plan, a line of writing, or any small detail worth keeping. Designed for everyday notes: • Multiple ways to view Move between Standard List, Compact List, and Card View. Scan many notes at once, or browse them like paper notes laid out in front of you. • Simple organization Keep things clear with groups, search, pinned notes, favorites, and colors—without turning your notes into a complicated filing system. • Beautiful note images Turn a note into a polished, paper-inspired image for sharing ideas, lists, announcements, and quote cards, or save it directly to Photos. • Make it feel like yours Choose from paper colors, themes, layouts, and display options, with full Dark Mode support. A clean interface, gentle colors, and subtle motion make writing and organizing feel calm and natural. • Rich text, kept simple Use headings, lists, checklists, quotes, and bold text when you need more structure. Capture one line in a moment, or shape a longer thought at your own pace. • Local backup Export and restore your notes manually whenever you want to keep a copy or move them to another device. • App lock Protect personal notes with your device passcode or biometrics. Sticky Notea stays focused on writing, arranging, and seeing your notes clearly. It is simply a small piece of paper, ready whenever an idea finds you.
