A rebuilt tablet app, audio in Pro, and reminders in early testing

No dark-mode styles — this email renders the same in a dark client.

We've rebuilt the tablet app for iPad and Android. Audio recording and analysis move to Pro. Reminders in early testing for Believers.
Hi there,
Release 73 brings a rebuilt tablet app , audio in Pro , and reminders in early testing .
A rebuilt tablet app
This year we've overhauled the desktop app and the mobile app, and now it's the turn of the tablet app!
We've completely rebuilt the tablet app on both iPad and Android. It is now much closer to the desktop app in terms of its design and capabilities. We have also fixed the frictions experienced on the older version. Our aim was to make the tablet app a serious replacement for the desktop app for tablet users with (almost) the same capabilities. You can put Capacities in split view with another app, create and edit queries on the tablet, and share into Capacities from other apps.
Thank you to everyone who wrote in about previous frictions on iPad and Android tablets. You've helped shape this rebuild. We hope you love it!

Audio recording and analysis
Audio recording and analysis were in early access for Capacities Believer . They are now part of Capacities Pro .
Start a recording on desktop with New > Audio or the microphone icon in the daily note, or use a widget or the mobile app.
When you have a recording, click Analyze to transcribe it. You get the spoken words as text, plus a summary. The transcript and summary are searchable.
Transcription and summaries need AI turned on in Settings. You can see how much of your AI budget an analysis uses in Settings > AI Assistant.
Thank you to all Believers who tested this and shared feedback. We have used your feedback to improve this feature further! 🙏

Reminders in Believer Beta
With this release, all Capacities Believers get early access to reminders and notifications in Capacities!
Do not rely on it yet for critical things
The feature is still in beta, so some reminders might not arrive reliably on all devices. So please do not use it yet for your exams at university, your big presentation at work, or your wedding anniversary!
How it works:
A reminder is attached to a date and time. Type /Remind me or /date in a note, then toggle on 'Reminder' in the date picker. You can use this anywhere there is a date in Capacities: in tasks, in timestamps, and in date properties in your objects.
On every device, you can turn on notifications in the settings. The next time you use a device after creating your first reminder, you will also be asked.
For every device you can configure which spaces you’d like to get notified about in the settings (e.g. you might not want to get notified about work related tasks on your personal phone).
Notifications pop up in the app in the new notifications center and as native notifications on desktop, web, and mobile. Desktop and web notifications only work if the app is open. Mobile notifications work independently of that.
If a reminder cannot be sent to your device, you get an email as a fallback, to the address on your Capacities account.
Reminders also work for recurring tasks. You get a notification for each occurrence of the task.
What's planned for the full release that's not in this beta:
Mobile & Quick Capture support : You will be able to create reminders on your phone and tablet, and from the quick capture menu.
Raycast Support : You will be able to create reminders from Raycast.
API & MCP support : You will be able to create reminders from the API and MCP.
Any feedback and problems are welcome on our feedback board. Happy testing. 🥳🔔

AI autofill for cover images (Experimental)
AI autofill can fill the cover on any object type by using web search. It does not generate images for this feature. This works well for object types like people, places and recipes.
To respect copyright, AI looks for cover images in a fixed set of sources:
Books : the cover from ISBNdb, a book database.
Films and series : only openly licensed images from Wikimedia Commons. Most posters are copyrighted, so many films, series and music albums have no image AI can use.
Everything else , such as people, places and concepts: openly licensed images from Wikimedia Commons, and open-access images from The Met and NASA. If these have nothing, AI searches the web, but it skips poster sites, shops and AI image generators.
Images from Wikimedia Commons, The Met and NASA carry a credit with the source's license in the image's description. A web image's description only names the website it came from. Check the credit before you share or publish content that uses the image. Capacities doesn't grant rights to third-party images.
If none of these sources has an image that fits the object, AI leaves the cover empty. Cover image auto-fill is experimental, so its results and sources may change. Feedback welcome!

List objects by date in the API and MCP
You can now list objects created or last updated in a time range, with the public API and through MCP .
With MCP, ask Claude or another AI app: "What did I work on last week in Capacities?"
In the app, using the AI Chat you can ask "What did I work on last month?" The answer comes back in the chat or as a new query, depending on how you ask.
Home screen widgets
Day Tasks shows your open tasks for the day you choose, on your phone's home screen.
Add the widget, then edit it to pick the day and the space. You can show:
Today
One day from Monday to Sunday
Weekdays
Weekend

Improvements to Whiteboards
Embed Support : You can now embed a whiteboard in a page. Open the embed to pan and zoom the live board without leaving the note.
Mobile support for whiteboards: You can now also edit a whiteboard on your mobile phone and tablet.
Read the whiteboard guide.
New community integrations
We have three new community integrations:
Capacities for Alfred : Search your space and add notes from Alfred on your Mac, without opening Capacities first. By Tarık Gandur.
Farview : See your goals and projects on a timeline, from this quarter out to the next ten years. By Saj Chandoo.
Yesteryear : See your older notes again on a schedule, along with one unlikely pair of notes each day. By Saj Chandoo.
Community integrations are not part of the official Capacities product. Thank you to Tarık and Saj for building these! 🙏
There's much more that changed. You can read about the full release in our What's new section.
