Hadoc
Sent. Kept. Found.
Stuff in. Stuff out. Nobody's business. Like the chat you keep with yourself, but with channels, so nothing gets buried.
iPhone · iOS 18.2 or later · Free
Send now. Move it later, or never.
Organize it or don't. Find it anyway.
Stuff out. The whole record, one file.
Stuff in. Stuff out. Nobody's business.
Like the chat you keep with yourself, but with channels, so nothing gets buried. Text, a photo, a video, or a recording, all kept the same way. Group it by channel, or don't, and find it anyway.
No feed. No followers. No red dot. Your stuff.
What you send stays on your phone. There is no account with us and no server of ours, and nothing in the app talks to the internet. The one exception is dictation, and only if you turn it on: Apple's speech recognition turns a recording into text, and to do that it may send the audio to Apple; the words are then searchable. With it off, a recording is just a recording, not transcribed and not searchable by what was said. If your phone backs up to iCloud, the backup includes Hadoc, like any app.
It's free. There is no server to pay for. No ads, no account, no sign-up, no notifications, and nothing in it reports back to us.
But with channels, so nothing gets buried.
It suggests the tags you'd have picked.
Features
- Dispatches
- A dispatch is text, with an optional title and one attachment: a photo, a video, or a recording. Edit it, move it, delete it. Created and edited times are kept.
- Channels
- Channels nest as deep as you like. You never have to make one — global is already there and holds everything. Send from global and it lands in global; move it later, or never.
- Perspectives
- A perspective is a filter you save on a channel, global included. Any word, any tag, any date, alone or together, included or left out, and the kind of dispatch. Save the search once; use it whenever you like.
- Tag suggestions
- As you type, it suggests the tags you'd have picked, from how you've tagged before. Nothing is suggested until you've made tags and used them. Reset what they've learned in Settings.
- Export and import
- Export the whole record or one channel, as a plain-text JSON document (text only), or as a .hadoc package — a plain zip of the text and media, with a note that explains the files. Import takes either back.
- Keeps working
- If Hadoc is ever discontinued, nothing switches off: the app stays on your phone with everything in it, and everything exports in a form you can read without it.
