Capture people by speaking or writing
With Capture, you describe in your own words who you met. Nodi turns it into entries in your network.
On this page
How to do it
- Tap Network › + › Capture.
- At the top, choose Write or Speak.
- Describe who you met, for example: “Anna Müller is a designer at Studio Nord. Remind me about her in two weeks.”
- Under What Nodi understood, a card appears for each person. Tap a card to change something.
- Tap Save. Only then is anything saved.
Speaking
Tap the microphone to start, and again to pause. After a short pause, Nodi reads along. Speech recognition runs on your iPhone, and recordings aren’t stored.
What Nodi recognizes
- New people and people already in your network. Existing people are only added to.
- Details such as occupation, company and location, notes and connections between people.
- Reminders. They go to Keep in Touch.
If you close without Save, the app asks whether you want to discard.
Note: You can also start Capture with the microphone already running from the Speak widget or the Quick Capture control in Control Center.
