That's pretty neat UI. My #1 complaint with using trello for quick task list is inability to grab a photo and attaching to the card. I think it is much faster to achieve than writing it down. Especially given I live in foreign country and it is much easier to show a photo of an item to local vendors than trying to recall how to pronounce the name of it.


We see where you're coming from, and we couldn't emphasize more on how important it is to be able to instantly turn something into text or images and attach them to a task (or card in Trello's case).

It's like what people say, "A photo is worth 1000 words."

Curious how the app has changed since then.


Quire has changed a lot in the past year, not to mention its UI and functionality that were made simpler but richer, and the brand-new iOS app is one of our newest achievements.

You can follow us on Twitter (https://twitter.com/quire_io) for more of our recent updates.


My apologies for not having a Twitter account.


Here are a few milestones we have achieved: turning growing plan into minimal to-dos, focusing on tasks that matter the most at the moment, collaborating securely with people outside the team, and of course, introducing the new iOS app.

In this app, like we’ve mentioned, people can instantly snap their ideas as photos or words and turn them into doable tasks.

If you want, you can check out our FaceBook (https://www.facebook.com/quire.io) or G+ (https://plus.google.com/+QuireIoOfficial/posts) page for recent updates.


I wonder if there is some email service that can follow accounts for you and give you updates without the need for a Twitter account.


If there's such a service, Twitter, FaceBook and the like probably won't be this happy today. :P


Interesting concept, I have never seen this before. I currently use another task management tool to manage my household tasks, being able to take a photo and turn it into a task would come in very useful.

Is it free?


Happy to know it'd be helpful to you. It'd surely come in handy when you see something that's inspiring!

And yes, it is free.

Right now, our focus is on making Quire more awesome, rather than thinking about the pricing.

Even when we have a pricing plan, whatever you’re still using will continue to be free.


This reminds me of Instagram that captures the images whenever I want wherever I want. Why bother use it when we've got it?


It's more than capturing the images at the moment. It's about turning your ideas, whether they're words or images, into tasks that are doable, and traceable.

Of course, it's great that you have ideas and have got them down. But that's not enough! Having your dreams come true still need plan and actions.


Instagram isn't a task management tool, is it:)
