vo.id vs Apple Notes
Apple Notes is a great place to write things down. The void is a place to get things out of your head. Capture by voice, text or SMS, and each memo is sorted, sent where it belongs, and handed back to you later.
Apple Notes comes free on every iPhone, iPad and Mac, syncs through iCloud, and can be end-to-end encrypted with Advanced Data Protection. It's built around notes and folders that you arrange yourself.
works from any phone
Text a memo to your void number from any phone, Android included, without opening an app. You can also record or type on the web. Everything arrives in the same inbox and is transcribed and sorted the same way.
sorted without folders
Every capture is transcribed and classified as a task, a note or a question, so you never pick a folder in the middle of a thought. On premium, tags are suggested from the ones you already use.
integrations
Send a task to TickTick or an event to Google Calendar from any memo, with the date read from what you said. Sending by hand is free on every plan.
chat with your notes
Ask across everything you've captured, such as "what did I say I'd do about the car?", and get an answer that links to the memos it came from.
privacy, plainly
Apple Notes with Advanced Data Protection is end-to-end encrypted. The void isn't, because sorting, summaries and questions need the server to read your memos. What the void promises is no ads, no training on your memos, nothing sold or shared, and a plain account of what goes to the AI.
when Apple Notes is the better pick
If you only use Apple devices and mostly write longer notes that you organize yourself, Apple Notes is hard to beat, and it's already on your phone.
