What is it?

First, some truths:

  1. I hate forgetting to tell people things.
  2. "Give me a minute, it'll come back to me" doesn't always work.
To combat this, I decided it'd be handy to make reminders for myself that show up when somebody calls. I realized that contact pictures are handy for more than just remembering what people look like -- I can also use them to make notes to remind myself of what I know I'll forget. Now, my reminders show up when I call friends or they call me; either way, the note stays visible throughout the entire call. So, I'll remember to get John to tell me the tumbleweed story:

Okay, how do I use it?

There are 5 steps involved in FaceNoting, and they're all pretty fun.

Compose a note

To compose a note:

  1. Tap in the "note" area and start typing on the keyboard. Tap "Done"
  2. Pinch the text to make it bigger or smaller
  3. Double-tap the note to align the text
  4. Don't get me started on different fonts and colors...

Assign the note

To assign a note:

  1. Tap the lower gray box
  2. Select a contact
  3. Drag the note to the contact's picture
  4. Let go
That's it! The note's been assigned.

Talk about it

The next time you're on the phone with Johnny, you can finally hear that tumbleweed story. What a relief!

Delete the note

Now that you've heard the story, put Johnny's face back where it should be. To delete a note:

  1. Swipe the note in the "View All" tab
  2. Tap the delete button.
There's another way!
  1. Tap the note in the "View All" tab
  2. Mark it as complete
Either way, that'll put things back to the way they used to be.

Relax

This is the most fun: not worrying about forgetting to talk about something, whether it's as silly as the tumbleweed story or as important as the Jenkins account. While you're relaxing, why not explore some of FaceNote's other features?

Go ahead, try it!
