App Profile: Pocket - AI Thought Companion

This device and app are going to change my life! I have only just begun to explore the capabilities of what this can do, and I am already blown away. The sky is the limit with this device and app. As an early backer, I can see how responsive the team behind this is. They are literally taking our feedback and changing things on the fly. If you have ADHD, take notes in a meeting and when you look back up you realize you missed the end of their thought, or just needed someone to tell your crazy 3 AM shower idea to, this thing is for you.

This app is already pretty solid out of the gate, and the Pocket team shows promise in actively making enhancements. That said, there are some key things missing currently that make it really tough to give up Granola in favor of just using my Pocket. Most importantly is a custom “dictionary” feature. The AI summaries get my company name wrong all over the place and it’s a real bother to share notes with anyone because of this. Also I work with a large team of Indian developers and… let’s just say without a dictionary every single transcription butchers people’s names to the point that I’m not even sure who is being referenced. With that single fix this goes from a 4 star app and product to a 5 star must have app and product for anyone working a job with a ton of high stakes / fast paced meetings.

I preordered Pocket very early on because I thought the idea behind it was awesome. After receiving the unit, I still think it’s awesome, but it’s buggy and unreliable. About half the time it doesn’t record when it’s in conversation record mode, or maybe it is recording but just doesn’t sync, I don’t know which. It would be nice to be able to see the recordings that are actually on the device in the app and manually sync them if it doesn’t automatically do it. Unfortunately, because it only records or syncs about 50% of the time, I can’t recommend Pocket to anyone until this is fixed. It’s failed on me during too many important conversations to be able to rely on it.
