Sparks - Capture the Flickers

Catch a thought the moment it appears. Just speak — Sparks listens, cleans up your words, and keeps them safe. No accounts, no clutter, just a quiet place.

Some ideas only show up once. Sparks is a voice-note app for catching them before they vanish.

Open the app, press once, and speak. Sparks transcribes what you say, gently cleans up the fillers and false starts, and files the thought away. No save buttons, no folders, no streaks — just a quiet place for the things you don't want to lose.

— HOW IT WORKS — • Press the dot to start, speak, fall silent for three seconds — Sparks knows you're done. • Or pull up to release manually, the moment you're sure. • The transcript appears in seconds, already polished. • Tap a card to read it again, anytime.

— AUTOMATIC CLEANUP — The way we talk isn't the way we'd write. Sparks removes the "um", the "you know", the second-guessing — and keeps the meaning. What you read back is the thought you had, not the noise around it.

— WORKS IN MANDARIN AND ENGLISH — Speak in either language, or both in the same note. Sparks keeps each in its own voice — no awkward translation, no mixing.

— ORGANIZED WITHOUT EFFORT — Each note is gently categorized: idea, task, question, note, or reference. You don't tag anything — the app reads the shape of your thought.

— DESIGNED TO STAY OUT OF THE WAY — A single screen. Cream paper. Quiet italic serif. One small gold star. The interface is the smallest amount of design that can still hold a thought.

— YOUR WORDS STAY YOURS — Notes live on your device, in plain Markdown files. No account to create. No cloud upload. No analytics. If you delete the app, the notes go with it. Nothing left behind on a server.

Sparks is for the half-formed ideas on the walk home. The reminder you'll forget by lunchtime. The question worth thinking about later. The line from a book that stopped you for a moment.

Speak it. Keep it. Come back to it when you're ready.
