· Not a notes app. A memory.

"Most apps help you store information, Hey Toru helps you build on your own thinking."
· What is Toru
In Japanese, 捕る (toru, pronounced Toh-Roo) means to catch — a fish from the river, a moment from the air, an idea before it's gone.
That's the whole product, condensed into two syllables. Press a button and say what's on your mind. Toru catches the messy thought, gives it structure, and keeps it somewhere you can actually come back to. No formatting. No organising first.
Every person alive has lost a great thought because they couldn't write it down fast enough.
— The obsession behind Hey Toru!
