Groupthink on iPhone

Groupthink on iPhone captures the conversations and notes that happen away from your desk — a hallway chat, a call in the car, a thought after dinner — and turns them into a record you can keep about the people in your work life. It runs on your phone, transcribes on the device, and works the moment you open it. No account required to start.

The five tabs

The tab bar has five spots:

  • Interactions — where you record, type, paste, and see everything you've captured. This is the home tab.
  • Overview — your day: today's meetings and who's in them. Needs sign-in (see below).
  • + (the raised button in the middle) — quick capture from anywhere. Tap it to Start recording or Log interaction without leaving the tab you're on.
  • People — the person-by-person view of who you know and what you've logged. Needs sign-in.
  • Settings — permissions, sync, sign-in, and help.

What works with no account

Open the app and go. These all run on-device, with nothing sent to Groupthink:

  • Record a conversation — tap Start recording on the Interactions tab. Groupthink transcribes it on your phone. See Recording conversations on iPhone.
  • Write or paste a note, or ingest a link. See Capturing notes, links, and the Share sheet.
  • iCloud sync — if you're signed into iCloud on the phone, your captures back up and sync across your own devices automatically. No in-app sign-in needed.

What sign-in adds

Signing in with Google or Microsoft brings your Groupthink relationships onto the phone and unlocks the two server-backed tabs:

  • Overview — a synthesized read on your day, the meetings on it, and the people you're about to see.
  • People — your relationship list, with the notes and history you keep on each person.

Your on-device captures keep working with or without an account. See Sync and signing in for how the tiers fit together.
