“If youre looking for something to capture everything you need to remember (and capture it quickly), I highly recommend picking up Captio” - The Unofficial Apple Weblog

“If you need to send photos or screenshots to yourself on a regular basis then Captio will save you quite a bit of time” - Lifehacker.com

Notes are delivered to your email inbox instantly or stored temporarily on your device while youre offline.

Captio is made specifically for capturing an idea or task as fast as possible, with minimum distractions.

Use the share extension to email yourself text, links to web pages and photos from within other apps.

If you configure Captio to use an IMAP account, it puts notes directly into your inbox for the best security and privacy. Without any configuration, Captio sends notes using Amazons SES mail servers.

Captio - Email yourself with 1 tap app good for

.. super simple, super fast. went straight to my home screen. needs a prettier icon though.
Very good idea. Please add possibility to send Emails from my OWN adress. Thx
I couldn’t live without this simple but highly efficient application; the email arrives almost immediately. Great job, thanks a lot and kind regards!
Simple, and powerful. I was sending myself reminder emails in meetings all the time … now its one click. Brilliant.
This is a perfect little app which is easily one of my most often used. It does exactly one thing - send a quick email to one stored address with one click - and it does it absolutely perfectly and simply. Ive been eagerly awaiting an update for iOS 7 and now that its here, Im very pleased. The new version looks great and works as perfectly as always. Never change!
I use this app every day. Its an essential part of my work every day life. New update for iOS 7 is fastest yet. Thanks.

Some bad moments

Using IMAP for sending notes doesnt work. There is always a message about not being able to connect to the server.
I found that many emails do not make it to my inbox. In fact kinda like they are never sent. I am an IT manager and checked spam controls etc. Seems like they never make it to my system. Even tried a gmail address. Same result. Too bad cause if they can fix that issue this app is 5+ stars.
Works for photos but not when sending text only which was my main reason for buying it. If this could be fixed it would be excellent!!
Im a big fan of this app but was a bit frustrated when the latest version crashed on launch making the app not usable. I hope they issue a fix quickly!
I use this app quite a bit. It transfers notes very quickly. One minor thing is that the line that says its sent from this app, needs a space so the two message lines dont run together. Evernote removes the carriage return on the summary of the note. All of my notes in archive disappeared. Using Fastever now.
