Funnel - Quick Capture

There’s a few apps out there like this, but none have the brilliant Live Activities feature is a real stand out that I use everyday. Once you start a new capture and exit out of the app, you will see the option to enable live activities, which will essentially turn your capture into a kind of system-wide “sticky. ” I’ve found this incredibly useful for todos; I create my list, go about my day and check off the tasks in the app, and when I’m done I can send the capture to whatever available destination for record keeping. This is a great “hack” for attention—excellent if you had ADHD—and it’s worth using this app over others.

Thank you for making this app. Funnel is fantastic if you need to quickly capture information and you use Obsidian, Drafts, or the other supported destinations. As I contractor I spend my days reviewing the state of projects, noting deficiencies, and communicating with my partners. Funnel allows me to quickly store a picture or thought without having to fiddle with an app. It is saving me a significant number of minutes every day. I bought a subscription a few days ago and it has already paid for itself in time savings. Here is my take on future enhancements (note this list is geared to Obsidian): Reasonable List: - Add new content at end of file instead of beginning of file - Capture multiple pictures at once - Add text to media; Ex., send text with picture - Edit a variable-based file name by content type: if(type=Photo, "Pic"_{date}-{time}_{<prompt for name>}.jpg") Dream List: - Customize picture insert link to Obsidian to display a picture at a specify size: if(type=Photo, "Pic"_{date}-{time}_{<prompt for name>}.jpg|300) - Annotate pictures--just need simple pen with 2-3 colors and text box - Media (pictures, etc.) should save to folders as specified in Obsidian. Saving a picture to my Daily note results in a link in the Daily file but the attachments go to the folder designed in Funnel.

$15/year is a steal in order to send unlimited notes to Obsidian (and other apps) in the blink of an eye. Oh, and it also has transcription, photos, and more. I get more value from this per week than I pay per year!
