All These Scraps

Every stray idea, receipt of a thought, half-plan, and someday-list — jotted as a scrap, stitched together with threads, growing into piles you can actually work.

no folders. no friction.

Scrap it. Thread it. Work it.

1 — Scrap it

Jot anything, instantly

Double-click the table and type. A scrap holds rich text, checklists, photos, voice recordings, files, and a date. New scraps land on your home table — a big freeform surface, not an inbox.

2 — Thread it

Tag with a thread

Type a thread name — new or existing — and the scrap files itself onto that thread's pile. Each pile gets its own table with its own tablecloth.

3 — Work it

Boards, stacks & flows

Drag cards into kanban lanes, stack related scraps, link them into flowcharts and mind maps, and see every dated scrap on the calendar. Done scraps sink neatly into the archive.

Every pile is a table you can work at

Cards on a tablecloth, kanban lanes along the top, and the same scraps on every device. Here it is on the Mac and iPhone; the iPad gets the same table, with scraps that open as movable panels.

Piles that build themselves

No filing chores. Tag a scrap with a thread and its pile exists; empty piles tidy themselves away.

🗂️

Kanban on every pile

Drag a scrap into a lane — To Do, In Progress, Done, or lanes you name yourself. One combined Tasks board gathers every pile's lanes.

🪭

Stacks that fan out

Drop scraps on each other to group them. Tap the pile and they fan out like a hand of cards — open any one from the fan.

🔀

Real flowcharts

Give any scrap a shape — decision diamond, start pill, process box — then label the branches yes and no and loop right back.

🌼

Mind maps that grow

Add Branch, type, repeat. Ideas fan out on curved stitches, and one tap arranges the whole tree around your big idea.

🧵

Stitches

Tie any two scraps together with a labeled, directional stitch. The thread follows the cards wherever you drag them.

📆

A calendar that goes both ways

Date a scrap and it lands on your Google or Apple calendar. Edit the event there and the scrap follows. Your calendars' events sit on the table too — make a scrap from any of them.

🔁

Repeating dates

Every day, week, month, quarter, or year — a scrap that recurs shows up on every day it's due.

📤

Scrap it from anywhere

Share text, links, and images from any app straight into a new scrap. Links file under the page's real title. Paste a copied image and it's attached.

🎙️

Voice scraps

Tap the mic in any scrap — or say "Hey Siri, voice scrap" — and the recording lands on your table, playable on every device.

✅

Checklists & dates

Tick items right on the card face. Attach photos, files, and links. Lines of text that are links open with a tap.

🔒

Private things stay private

Lock a scrap or a whole pile behind Face ID or Touch ID. Locked scraps show a title and nothing more.

🗣️

Shortcuts & Siri

"New scrap in Scraps." Create, search, file, and read your board hands-free — it even works in the car.

✨

Claude Access

On the Mac, let your own Claude read, create, and file scraps — it runs on your machine, no server, no stored keys.

🔍

Search that finds it

Search inside titles, bodies, and checklists — and from Spotlight, before you even open the app.

🛏️

Tablecloths

Ginghams, quilts, tie-dyes, daisy borders, sunflowers — every table sets its own mood.

☁️

iCloud sync

Mac, iPhone, and iPad — always the same table. No account to create; you already have one.

Better together

  • Share a pile with family or a friend — send a stitched invitation and they join with one tap. It appears in their app under "Shared with Me," live within seconds.
  • Everyone contributes. New scraps, checklist ticks, lane moves — all synced through iCloud, no server, no signup.
  • File it your way. Each person can tag shared scraps onto their own piles without touching anyone else's filing.
  • Stay in control. See who's joined, who hasn't, remove people, or stop sharing anytime — your pile stays yours.

Tips & tricks

Dock a card with a flick.

Drag any card to the top of the window and the kanban lanes appear — drop it right into one.

Arrange to fit.

Long-hold an empty spot on any table for the table menu — one tap tidies every card into view.

Stack to declutter.

Drop one card onto another to make a stack. Tap to fan it open.

Checklists check off on the card.

No need to open a scrap — tap the circle right on its face.

Talk to it.

"Hey Siri, what's on my board in Scraps?" reads your lanes back. Build a "voice scrap" shortcut and capture ideas while driving.

Grow a mind map.

Right-click a scrap → Add Branch for a connected thought, ready to type. When the tree sprawls, Arrange as Mind Map fans it out neatly.

Pin the important ones.

Pinned scraps live in the sidebar, one click from anywhere.

Every arrow has a handle.

The little dot on a connection opens its menu — label it, curve it, flip it, or snip it.

Swipe wide boards.

On iPhone, lanes scroll sideways — drag a card against the screen edge to reach the far ones.

The diary rule.

Locked scraps are never shared. Their contents stay out of search previews, Siri, Shortcuts, Spotlight, and your Claude connection, and they sync only through your own iCloud.

Share into Scraps, titled.

From any app's share sheet pick All These Scraps. It asks for a title right there, so a link files under a name you'll recognise.

Write longer.

Turn a scrap into a draft and it gets Title, Heading, and Subheading styles, bullets, a word count, and an outline to jump around.

Give it a date.

Add a date and the scrap lands on your calendar; move the event there and the scrap follows.

Take it with you.

Export a scrap as Markdown or PDF, a pile as a folder, or the whole library as a vault that opens in Obsidian. Import text or Markdown back any time.

Open it anywhere.

allthesescraps.com/app — sign in with your Apple ID to read and jot from any browser, and install it from Edge or Chrome.

Links ask first.

An invitation link names the pile and asks before it joins your library, so nothing lands there without your say.
