Podcast App & Player - Skimr2026.19 - App Store

Skimr turns podcasts into notes you'll actually keep.

Hear something worth remembering? Tap once - and AI turns that moment into a clear, searchable note. No rewinding, no losing the idea by the end of your walk.

Skimr is a full podcast player with AI note-taking built in. Listen the way you always do, and capture what matters without ever leaving the episode.

-------
TAKE NOTE - CAPTURE ANY MOMENT
Take a note from wherever you are: the full-screen player, any episode's page, right on the Live Activity on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island, or with a triple-press on your AirPods - no need to even look at your phone. Skimr turns what you just heard into:
. A clear title and the key takeaways, as bullet points
. Automatically sorted into a category - Insight, Tip, Story, Fact, Recommendation, or Opinion
. The exact quote from the episode
. Room for your own thoughts and tags
On iPhones with Apple Intelligence, your notes are generated right on your device in supported languages. Everywhere else - other iPhones, other languages - Skimr steps in with secure cloud processing, so note-taking works on every device, in dozens of languages.

-------
AUTO NOTES - SKIMR LISTENS WITH YOU
Flip one switch and Skimr takes the notes for you. As the episode plays, Skimr's AI listens along and captures the ideas worth keeping - the right notes at the right time, without repeating itself. Watch them appear live on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island as you listen. Each note lands on the episode timeline like a chapter marker: tap it to jump straight back to the moment. Hands on the wheel, headphones in on a run - your notes are waiting when you're done. And you decide how much it captures - from only the standout moments to a note on every distinct point - for every episode, or just one.

-------
PRIVATE ON-DEVICE TRANSCRIPTS
No transcript for an episode? Skimr creates one right on your device - the audio never leaves your iPhone. Full-text searchable, so you can find any line and jump straight to the moment.

-------
SMART PLAYLISTS THAT BUILD THEMSELVES
Set a few rules - podcast, length, release date, whether you've already played it - and Skimr keeps a playlist filled and up to date automatically. A fresh queue every morning, short episodes for the gym, unplayed favorites for the commute.

-------
YOUR NOTES, ORGANIZED
Your notes collect in a searchable Notes library - browse by tag, podcast or episode.

-------
SEND YOUR NOTES ANYWHERE
Sync your notes and highlights to Notion, Readwise, and Glasp - and build a second brain where your podcast insights live alongside your books and articles. Or share a single note as a beautifully designed card, ready for Messages, Instagram, or anywhere else.
