Afterthought: Voice Notes

Afterthought turns spoken thoughts into prepared actions for the apps you already use — and longer recordings into Sessions you can review.

Capture from iPhone, Apple Watch or Action Button. Afterthought transcribes your voice, understands what you meant and prepares notes, reminders, tasks, calendar events, messages and other actions while keeping you in control of what happens next.

NEW IN 2.6 — SESSIONS
Sessions are a deliberate workflow for longer recordings. Choose Meeting, Interview, Lecture or Thinking and keep the original audio, final transcript and useful overview together.
• Record meetings, interviews, lectures and longer thinking
• Follow a provisional on-device transcript while recording
• Keep the original audio and final transcript
• Review an Apple Intelligence summary on supported devices

YOUR APPS, YOUR WORKFLOW
Prepare content for Apple Notes, Reminders, Apple Calendar, Apple Journal, Todoist, Notion, Slack, Things 3, Bear, Obsidian, TickTick, Day One, Evernote, Messages, Email, Shortcuts and other supported workflows.

Afterthought does not replace your notes app, task manager, calendar or journal. It makes voice an easier way into them.

PRIVATE, CONTROLLED INTELLIGENCE
Capture and transcription are local-first. Apple Intelligence, Classic and downloaded Local AI Models process on device. Optional Cloud AI sends transcript text only to the provider you configure. External destinations receive content only when you use them.

Free includes unlimited capture and transcription, review, supported Apple workflows and a monthly classification allowance. Pro adds unlimited classification, multi-action splitting, writing actions, third-party destinations, extra Nature Mode options, Local AI Models and optional Cloud AI.

Speak once. Make it happen.
