Can I still use WhatsApp to save notes with Jotter?

Yes. Jotter connects to WhatsApp so you can message yourself as usual. Everything you send gets automatically saved to Jotter, where it's searchable and organized by AI. You keep the WhatsApp habit, but gain a proper note-taking system.

How is Jotter different from WhatsApp self-chat?

WhatsApp self-chat has no real search, no organization, and notes get buried in scroll. Jotter provides AI-powered search that finds notes by meaning, automatic categorization and tagging, and proper cross-device sync. Your notes become searchable and organized automatically.

Does Jotter work with WhatsApp?

Yes. Jotter has WhatsApp integration. After signing up, you get a Jotter WhatsApp number. Save it to your contacts and message it — everything gets saved and automatically organized by AI. It's the fastest way to capture notes without opening an app.

Can I search my notes in Jotter?

Yes. Jotter has powerful AI search that finds notes by meaning, not just keywords. Search 'that thing about productivity' and Jotter finds it, even if you never used those exact words. It's far more powerful than WhatsApp's basic search.

How does Jotter organize notes automatically?

Jotter uses AI to automatically categorize notes (links, reminders, ideas), extract dates and times, assign tags, and determine priority. You don't need to manually organize anything — AI does it in the background as you capture notes.
