Fetchnotes - Shared Notes, Reminders & To Do List 3.2.1

Just write in plain English and the app figures out the rest
Most note taking applications aren’t very smart. But who knew this was a requirement for such a simple tool. Well, according to the people at Fetchnotes LLC, it is.

Fetchnotes wants to offer a much simpler and more reliable way to keep track of notes, reminders, and to do-s. It also lets you stay in sync with the people that matter to you, and collaborate with them on these tasks.

Great design inside and out

Fetchnotes is a very attractive note taking app that starts off with a brief guide on what you can do with it, and then whisks you into the main UI to start jotting down ideas, reminders, and pretty much anything you can think of.

The beauty of Fetchnotes lies in its abilities, but the graphics used throughout the app make it very appealing and not at all boring (like most apps of this kind).

Organize everything with hashtags

Its purpose isn’t defined by any key function, but here’s what the app can do. You can use hashtags, like #music, #quotes, #ideas, #blog, or #link, to stay organized, as well as the hashtag #todo to instantly create a reminder.

The reminder function is actually kind of brilliant. You simply mention a time in a note, like “buy batteries this afternoon,” and Fetchnotes magically creates a reminder around 3PM with that task. The beauty of it is that you don’t need to scroll through time-pickers anymore.

You can share stuff with others by simply @mentioning them. Fetchnotes finds that person in your address book and contacts them with your ideas.

Notes with hashtags like #book, #music and other stuff that can be bought offline are assigned product suggestions, like a music album that you might like, or a nice book to buy off Amazon. So far Fetchnotes hasn’t been too flexible in this area, but it’s a nice touch nonetheless.
