iPhone App of the Day: Jott

Jul 26th 2008 by Mr. Mayor

From Jott Networks comes Jott for the iPhone. It’s the ‘ultimate mobile notepad that turns your voice into notes’. If you want to take quick notes, but don’t want to type them in… Throw away your old voice recorder, and close the notes app… Jott is coming to the rescue.

Capture to-do’s and memos as quickly as you can talk. Jott will transcribe your notes into text and place the notes in a list. When you complete them, simply cross them off with a swipe of your finger. Cool!

All lists are backed up on Jott.com. You can also manage your lists online at Jott.com while you’re at your computer… And if you’re an existing Jott user, your lists and notes will load after you’ve successfully downloaded the app to your iPhone!

Another cool feature is the voice email and text message feature. Customers can use Jott’s phone-based service by calling 1-866-JOTT-123. When you call that number from your mobile number that you previously provided when signing up, Jott will recognize you. Once in, you can send emails and text messages by simply talking into your phone. You’ll need to setup a contact list online before you can send an email or text, but I think this feature is pretty darn nifty.

There’s much more to Jott than what I’ve outlined here… and for the price (FREE) it’s certainly worth a good look.
