Capture faster, organize better. Version 2 brings a full redesign, new tabs, smarter iCloud sync, and improved Apple Intelligence.
Capture turns photos and voice memos into searchable, organized text — entirely on your device.
CAPTURE FASTER THAN YOU CAN TYPE
Point your camera at a book page, whiteboard, or handwritten note. Capture extracts the text automatically. Or record a voice memo and get a full transcript with timecodes — pause, resume, and tap any timestamp to jump back to that moment.
POWERED BY APPLE INTELLIGENCE
On-device AI suggests tags, generates titles, and summarizes your notes automatically. It adapts to your own categories and gets more useful over time. No cloud required. No waiting.
YOUR DATA STAYS ON YOUR PHONE
OCR, transcription, and AI all run locally using Apple's built-in frameworks — Vision, Speech Analyzer, and Foundation Models. Nothing is uploaded to external servers. No signup required. Works fully offline.
ORGANIZE YOUR WAY
The Organize tab gives you full control of your library. Search and sort your tags, group notes into categories, assign colors in bulk, and sync everything across your devices with iCloud.
SHARE ANYWHERE
The native iOS share sheet sends your notes to any app — Obsidian, Notion, Apple Notes, email, wherever your workflow lives. No proprietary formats. No lock-in.
BUILT FOR
- Personal journaling and private notes
- Capturing ideas during walks, meetings, or reading
- Knowledge workers using Obsidian, Notion, or Apple Notes
- Journalists, researchers, and anyone with confidentiality needs
Apple Intelligence features require a compatible device running iOS 26. Apple, Apple Intelligence, and Foundation Models are trademarks of Apple Inc.

New in 2.5
Edit your photos before you file them. A brand-new built-in editor lets you crop, straighten, rotate, and flip images — either right after scanning or on any note you've already saved. Cleaner images mean better text recognition, too.
Choose your transcription language. Pick the language for your voice recordings in Settings, with smart fallback when an exact match isn't available. And if a speech model is still downloading, your recording is always saved — just tap Retry or Transcribe Later.
Clearer, more reliable scanning. Better guidance when a scan can't find readable text, plus fixes to note loading and the scan preview.
Polish throughout. Refreshed audio controls, a bigger tag colour palette, clearer labels, and a fix so adding an existing photo no longer duplicates it in your library.
