Your brain isn't designed to hold on to every idea. It is designed to create them.

Capture your thoughts in 5 seconds, decide what to do with them later, and regain your attention.

Your thoughts stay on your phone.

Does this happen to you?

At the supermarket, you suddenly think of something else you need to remember.

While driving, an idea pops into your head and distracts you.

In front of your screen, your attention keeps getting interrupted.

During a meeting, your mind is already somewhere else.

At bedtime, thoughts keep coming back one after another.

As long as your brain does not consider these thoughts safe, they continue to occupy your attention.

A thought can remain open in your mind. Until you deal with it, your brain keeps part of your attention in the background so you don't forget it.

Thought Attention engaged Thought safe Attention freed

A thought pops into your head? Write it down in seconds. No need to decide what to do with it right now.

When you are ready, decide whether the thought becomes an action, an idea, something to revisit later, or an archive.

Action Something to do. Exportable to Google Calendar or Notion.
Idea Something to explore later, with no urgency or deadline.
Revisit later Neither an action nor an archive for now: NotNow brings it back to you at the right time.
Archive Put away, but not lost: available for 90 days.

Some thoughts stay in NotNow. Others can move to your tools: Google Calendar, Notion, and more.

Help you organize a thought once you know what to do with it.

Lets you capture a thought now and decide what to do with it later.

The goal isn't to better organize every thought the moment it arrives. It's to be able to stop thinking about it.

Video coming soon.

NotNow stores your thoughts only on your phone. They are never sent to a server.
