Forward -
Send notes to your future self
$4.99 · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Have a thought you don't need right now? Email it to your future self.
forward is part rapid note-taker, part time-shifted reminder. Type what's on your mind, pick the day it matters - now, tomorrow, or any day this week - and it lands in your inbox that morning. All of a day's notes arrive gathered into a single email: one tidy list, not ten pings.
Your inbox is the one list you already check - forward simply puts things there on time.
WHY IT WORKS
• Capture instantly - open the app and type; your note is one tap from sent.
• Share from anywhere - push links, text, and ideas into forward from any app.
• Schedule by day - notes for the same day travel together, in one email.
• Forget on purpose - write it tonight, see it Thursday morning, think about it never in between.
NEW IN 1.7
• Dark Mode - follows your system theme, or stays dark for good.
• Sign in with your email - no usernames to remember.
• More dependable scheduled delivery.
A SMALL APP WITH A LONG STORY
forward began as a weekend project by Dan Hopwood of drivn.co - an app called Jot, born in 2014. We used it every single day, so when it shut down in January 2017, we bought it and brought it back, renamed for what it does: pushing notes forward to the day you need them. We've been emailing our future selves ever since.
• Fixed a rare crash that could happen while Forward was running in the background.
• Behind-the-scenes reliability improvements.
