I was going to bed after clicking the button. But here is my attempt to write a tweet into SubStack. To let you know, my dearest early users and supporters, DoubleMemory is launched on ProductHunt.
That’s why I’m still awake almost 1:30 a.m. on a school night. Got a few seconds for an upvote? I hope I can count on you.
For some updates since the last time we posted, I’ve been busy; here are some updates that are now in the latest DoubleMemory version.
TLDR: more capturing options (drag-n-drop, share sheet, services menu…), more responsive layout as you resize the main window, some bug fixes.
2025.2.21
[x] Responsive card sizes when in smaller windows
2025.2.20
[x] Added drag and drop to menu bar icon, dock icon, search view.
[x] Added “Keep in DoubleMemory” Services menu item when right click a link or text.
[x] We can also drag items from DoubleMemory out to other apps.
Because of the above feature, we are no longer allowing dragging by the whole window background, only the header or footer areas, as dragging will conflict with window dragging.
[x] We will no longer automatically center the main window again if we toggle it on again, as some may want their window to stay on the side or bottom of screen. as a drop area
2025.2.13
[x] Updated the accent color to be purple so it works on both light and dark theme
[x] Fixed the menu icon on light menu bar not visible
[x] Mac Share extension so it’s inclusive to mouse users
2025.2.4
[x] Sometimes index will be lost, when user searched for something but couldn’t find it, offer an reindex button in empty state
Other than the above, I’ve also updated our website, again. Trained myself of the best practices of App Store screenshots, brushed off my Figma skills, and refreshed these screenshots, again. The launch on Reddit also got me reflect on our pricing strategy, which I will be working towards at some point in the future. A reminder, all existing features will be always free, DoubleMemory is basically a nudge-ware for now, no feature gating, just gentle nudge to update, if you choose to. More Pro exclusive features will be coming…
For those who haven’t archived this message already and cared to reach here, (understandable, who would care about a little new productivity app?) I’m excited to take this further. As mentioned in my PH launch post, I think we are just at the beginning; we just made some small progress on solving the “capturing” phase of information overload, the real prize is “retrieval” and “digesting”, I hope with your help, we can experiment with some radical ideas there.
But not before we ship the iOS version though, which, btw, is still recruiting interested users for interviews… I’ve had a couple only, but it was all so fun to chat (and meet some old/new friends). My goal is to collect as many snowflake use-cases as possible, so we can build a beautiful snowball that will fit most of our needs….
