Capture

Type it. Don't file it.

Thoughts don't wait for you to find a folder. "Dentist Thursday at 3." "Pick up Sam's present before Saturday." A line for a book. You don't choose a type, a list or a date first. Auto is the default, and it reads what you meant.

Prefer to be exact? Tap Note, Task, Event or Reminder and set it yourself.

The Bubble Notes add sheet with Auto selected and the words 'Pick up Sam's birthday present, something blue, before Saturday.' typed in.

Sorted for you

It sorts first, then checks with you.

Your thought is already on the timeline as a task, an event, a reminder or a note. Then a card asks: add "Pick up Sam's birthday present" as a task for Saturday? Keep it and you're done. Nope it and the guess is undone, with your words left exactly as you typed them.

Not sure? Ask bb, the assistant that lives in the app.

A review card asking: Add 'Pick up Sam's birthday present' as a task for Saturday? with Nope, Ask bb and Keep buttons.

Focus

Pick one thing. Keep it in view.

A Focus is a short, ordered list you pin to the top of the screen. Stake the tomatoes, then the bird netting, then the compost bin. Finish one and the next steps up.

Turn on Takeover and whatever you type goes straight into that Focus until you turn it off.

The Garden focus: Stake the tomatoes, Order bird netting and Move the compost bin, in order, with a Takeover switch below.

Find it again

Search that gets the gist.

Type "lighthouse" and the chapter you promised Priya comes straight back. One box looks through your notes, tasks, events and reminders, and ranks what it finds by meaning, not just matching words.

A search for 'lighthouse' showing the task 'Email Priya the lighthouse chapter'.

Day and night

One timeline, open on today.

Once collected, a thought stays put. Everything sits in time order: scroll up for what happened, down for what's coming. Your Focus rides along at the top, so the next thing is never more than a glance away.

Light and dark, or follow your iPhone.

The timeline in light mode, open on Today, with two notes and a reminder to water the seedlings. The same timeline in dark mode, with the Garden focus pinned at the top: Stake the tomatoes.

Why I made this.

I made it for myself. As someone with AuDHD, I've always felt I have all the intelligence and ideas in the world, but I've never been organized enough to live up to my potential. I tried a lot of ways to organize myself, and this app is the result of refining a system, for me.

I know there are others like me out there who need help staying organized and making the most of their thoughts. If you like to write things down but struggle to make use of what you've written, I think this will feel natural.
