Claude 17+

I really like to go analog when I’m doing deep thought work or taking meeting notes - I process best by writing notes by hand. It’s great to take a photo of my notes via Claude and ask the AI to suggest additional thoughts based on what I’ve written. It’s become a great tool for getting knowledge work done with just a notebook and my phone in a way that really adapts to whatever I write or sketch out. It’s also great for not having to type up my written notes, which is a huge hassle. I’m definitely enjoying the app so far!

Also, I LOVE that Claude declines to answer anytime it feels a question isn’t suited for an AI answer. The transparency gives me a clearer idea of what this tech is and isn’t for in my own workflows. “I don’t know” is a wonderful response to see

Really handy with educational answers and general information. Really good at broad answers. Really like using it.
Room for improvement? Specific information and memory, if that’s possible.
Two things to note. One, it made up a ficticious business in an attempt to ‘be helpful’ in answering a question. When I called it out, of course Claude apologized and said it would learn from that. Next time I asked a question it didn’t have information to, it said it didn’t know.
That was before I closed the app. If it’d do it again I’d yet to be seen.
Two, I asked it to save a conversation thread under a file name for future reference and it said it had. But the next time I opened the app it said it had no ability to access such information. This ability would be tremendously helpful in future AI. I suppose a paid AI and personalized might have this feature but Claude does not. Still, for general education and learning it is great.

Nice work on the app guys.

What I’d love is if you would allow the iPad version to be installed on apple silicon mac devices. The ChatGPT app disallows this currently and I really believe that Claude would appeal more to technically-savvy users (hackernews demographic certainly) if you simply flip the switch and enable your official app on macOS. Using the iPad version on macOS would be particularly tolerable for this type of application.

Moreover, typical mac users would not stumble upon your app because the macOS store search is awful; you wouldn’t be dealing with complaints of how the designed-for-iPad app UX is lacking. Please consider enabling it 🙂
