Mobile Apps

We have released mobile apps for our product. The apps have a new way of organizing the summaries such that you can retain the critical ones and quickly discard the unwanted items of information.

Both Android and Apple apps are released in their app stores. Install them from these links below. The apps are designed for both phones and tablets.

Android Play Store

Apple App

Note: Existing users can use their credentials to access their contents from the mobile app. The Web app will also continue to be operational into the future.

Connect

First, connect your sources of information like Blogs, Podcasts, Twitter, and Apps like Pocket or Zapier. The App will read the latest from these sources every hour and summarize it for you.

Organize

The summaries are grouped and organized into four lists: Latest, Important, Starred, and Archived. They are color-coded for easy recollection.

Categorize

Swipe right or left to move a summary from the current list to your desired one. Attempt to categorize all items on this list in one go and get to ZERO items on this list.

Latest List

It contains all the new and uncategorized summaries. If an item on the list seems useless, swipe left to dump it into the Archive. Or, if it spikes your interest, swipe right to move it to the Important list. Attempt to categorize all items on this list in one go and get to ZERO items on this list.

Important List

It holds summaries that seem interesting. Read it further and see if its worth remembering. If so, swipe right and put it in the Starred list. Otherwise, swipe left to dump it in the Archive. Attempt to categorize all items on this list in one go and get to ZERO items on this list.

Starred List

The Starred list holds all the summaries you have found interesting, relevant and would like to keep for quick future reference. Your personal knowledge base is getting built here.

Archive List

It holds all the summaries that you have NOT found exciting but at least glanced at once. No need to delete them, but they will get included when searching.

Search

Find the summaries that match a search term. Results include items from all lists and are color-coded.

Pocket Integration

Using our Pocket integration, items you bookmark with Pocket will automatically get summarized. Pocket is the best bookmarking service out there. Its free and works on every platform there is.

Zapier Integration

Using our Zapier integration, you can pull in information to summarize from over 2000+ Apps and deliver the summarized result to any other App.

Thanks for all the wonderful feedback to make the product more awesome.
