Features

Every feature in depth: what it is, why it exists, and how to use it well.

• TranscriptionHow SandDune reads your handwriting — what to expect, how to get the best results, and what to do when it misses.
• Live HighlightsEvery word of your handwriting gets its own touchable box — tap one to check what it says, or fix it on the spot.
• Note ViewerThe full-screen home of a single page — zoom, swipe, read, edit, star, download, delete.
• SearchInstant keyword lookup across every title and transcription you've ever saved — free and unlimited.
• AskPlain-language questions, answered from your own pages with citations — the feature that makes an archive talk back.
• TimelinesRecurring questions answered over time — a dated thread that shows how your thinking actually changed.
• NotebooksCollections for your pages — mirror your physical notebooks or organize by theme, with scoped search and Ask inside each.
• Notebook Flip-ThroughFlip through a notebook like the physical object it is — cover, spreads, page turns — and tap any page to read it up close.
• StarsA favorites flag for the pages that matter most, with a dashboard filter that composes with search.
