What is FaceNote?

I created FaceNote because I hate forgetting to tell people things. It happens more than I'd like to admit, and, just as often, the "give me a minute, it'll come back to me" solution doesn't work. To combat this, I decided it'd be handy to make reminders for myself. I tried the "To-Do List" approach, but these aren't easy to get to while actually in a call. Whatever reminders I made needed to be available during a call with a friend. 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.

How does it work?

I kept FaceNote simple. To create a note, all you have to do is tap the note and enter your reminder text. Then just choose a contact and drag the note to their face. The created note temporarily replaces their contact picture so it will show up conveniently during a call.

To restore a contact's old picture and delete the note, the process is equally simple. In the "View All" tab, swipe the saved note you're finished with and tap the delete button that appears. That's it! It's as if FaceNote was never there, except now you've actually discussed everything you wanted to from the beginning.

Of course, there are some advanced features you can use. Standard pinch gestures resize the text of the note for easy viewing, the "View All" screen gives you the option to call a contact with a saved note easily from within FaceNote, and the appearance of the saved notes are fully customizeable. Check out the "Settings" tab for a slew of other options.

Will there be updates?

Of course! FaceNote is already up to version 1.2, which added a couple suggestions submitted by existing FaceNote users: text alignment and changeability of your default home screen. Keep the suggestions coming!
