A useful way to evaluate it

  1. Create a person using fictional details, such as “Sam likes pottery and has an interview on Friday.”
  2. Review the proposed card details. Check that editable suggestions stay separate from saved facts.
  3. Save a dated event and confirm the notification settings. Check the note again before contacting the person.
  4. Open a check-in draft. Edit it and confirm that the app has not sent a message for you.
  5. Try the same job with your current notes and calendar setup. Describe where embrs helps and where it adds unnecessary work.

Images and video

These materials show the actual welcome screen, recorded from build 38's shipped screen code in an iPhone Simulator. The native simulator shell is shared with our development environment. The notes are built-in fictional demo content, not customers' data.

You may reproduce the supplied screen capture and mark to cover this app. Please preserve the beta status and identify the app as “embrs by Christopher Li” or link to embrs-app.com so readers can distinguish it from similarly named products.
