Elemental Tools launched Infos, a new app for easily storing and quickly retrieving short pieces of information in a most efficient way. Infos is launching as a universal iOS app on iPhone and iPad with a Mac app planned for later this year.
Infos comes with a very clean and clear user interface resembling a grid of cards where each card represents a piece of information (or info) stored. Infos can contain short notes with links and optional attachments. You can organize infos via tags and categories. Additionally, categories can be assigned colors adding even more clarity to your information grid.
“We optimized the user interface primarily for super fast retrieval,” so Wolfgang Bartelme, the designer behind Infos and co-founder of Elemental Tools. “The search box is the first element you see on screen and infos are automatically sorted in reverse order of latest changes.”

Examples of infos can be anything from your spouse’s social security number, tips and tricks you want to remember, to important insurance policy numbers. Infos basically stores all those short pieces of unrelated information you never knew where to put before. However, the app currently does not support strong encryption, so it is not intended to store sensitive pin codes or passwords.
The new app also integrates with Apple’s Siri (if the user allows it) with the idea that over time Siri will suggest some infos at the right time or place depending on prior usage patterns. Infos supports Siri Shortcuts meaning that it can also be used for automating things on iOS.
