Notes on your people & things

Blonde Dolphin keeps the small things you’re told or notice about the people, pets, places and things in your life. Say or type a note and it’s tidied and filed on the right page.

Let’s dive in

5 m Before anything else

Start with your inner circle.

Pick a few people from your phone. Only the ones you choose are added, so it never fills up with your plumber and three old flatmates.

Mum can stay “Mum”. Aliases like Jonno and Nan file your notes to the right person.

Only the people you tick are added.

10 m Friday 14 August, after coffee with Sam

Just say what happened.

After a catch-up, a vet visit or a morning in the garden, tap and talk for up to a minute. Or type, if you’d rather. No forms, no fields, no tidying up afterwards.

Long-press the app icon and choose Dictate a note, and you’re talking before the kettle boils.

40 m Eight seconds later

Tidied up and filed for you.

AI smooths out your words and files the note under Sam, and under Maya too, because you mentioned her.

It suggests what’s worth keeping: a reminder, a date, a few small facts. It even notices when something has changed. You tick what stays.

60 m The whole thing, start to finish

Watch one note go in.

This is the real flow: talk, let it tidy, tick what to keep. About thirty seconds of your day. Keep scrolling and it plays along with you.

80 m Day 40, before you see Sam again

A Recap before you catch up.

Open Sam, tap Recap and get the gist in five seconds: what you talked about last time, what’s going on for him, and what to ask.

Tap a question and you’ll get a nudge tomorrow morning. Try one.

100 m Not just people

A page for everything you look after.

The dog, the garden, the car, the trip you’re planning. Say what happened and it lands on the right page, with the details worth keeping and the dates that come round every year.

120 m Day 52, standing in the paint aisle

Ask your notes.

Search or ask in plain words, from one box. The answer comes from your notes, and shows you the notes it came from. If it isn’t there, it says so instead of guessing.

160 m Tuesday 2 March, the next year

Stay close, without the mental load.

A heads-up the day before Mum’s birthday, with the two things worth knowing. Reminders you can tick off right from the Lock Screen. Anniversaries, the car’s rego and the dog’s vaccinations, picked up from what you said.

And now and then, a quick hello to someone you haven’t noted about lately. No streaks, no scores, no guilt.

200 m The seabed

Private by design.

Down here it’s quiet. What you tell Blonde Dolphin is kept safe, and it stays yours.

  • No ads, no tracking

    Your data is never sold. The only thing we count is how often you use AI, never what you wrote.

  • Only who you pick

    Only the contacts you choose are added. The rest of your phone stays out of it.

  • Your voice stays put

    Dictation is turned into text by Apple. The audio never reaches us.

  • AI is your choice

    Notes go to Anthropic only if you say yes, and Anthropic doesn’t train on them. Switch off Tidy and file my notes any time.

  • Locked up tight

    Encrypted in transit and at rest. Only you can read it. Add Face ID if you like.

  • Yours to take

    Export or delete everything, whenever you want.

0 m Back at the surface

Say it once. Find it when it matters.

Start with three people and one note after your next catch-up. It takes less time than reading this page did.
