I built an iOS app to turn online discoveries into searchable knowledge

I recently released an iOS app called Notivx.

The idea came from a problem I kept running into for years.

Whenever I discovered something useful online — SNS posts, videos, articles — they ended up scattered across bookmarks, screenshots, browser tabs, or notes.

Saving information was easy.
Finding it again later was the hard part.

So I built Notivx to solve that.

Notivx focuses on turning things you discover online into a searchable personal knowledge base.

You can capture content from SNS, videos, and the web, organize it into notebooks, and quickly find it later.

Key features:

• Save SNS posts, videos, and web pages

• Official embed support for SNS content (following platform guidelines)

• Download videos from sites that allow downloads

• Import notes from Evernote

• Optional PDF snapshots for personal archiving

• OCR search for images and PDFs

• Fast search across all notes

• iCloud sync across your Apple devices

Notivx also supports creating and organizing regular notes similar to traditional note apps like Evernote.

Instead of downloading SNS content directly, the app embeds official links and optionally creates PDF snapshots so everything stays organized and searchable.

I built this mainly because information today lives across many platforms, and existing tools didn’t make it easy to capture and organize those discoveries in one place.

Would love feedback from other builders.
