What is Napkin?

Napkin is a personal idea collection and reflection app designed to help users capture, organize, and deeply engage with their best ideas. Created by a small independent company based in Switzerland, Napkin addresses the problem of information overload by providing a calm, focused space to nurture meaningful thoughts rather than distracting content. Users can easily add ideas by sharing text from other apps, scanning from books, dictating, or typing directly. The app uses AI to understand the user's ideas and suggest related topics for reflection, helping to build a stronger sense of coherence and mental wellbeing. Napkin is primarily designed for individuals who want to cultivate inspiration, creativity, and mindfulness through their personal flow of ideas. It currently supports English and related languages and is available on iPhone, with plans for iPad support in the future.
