Productivity Features
Export conversations, search messages, pin your most-used prompts, and let the AI take action on your behalf.
AI Actions from Chat
LucidPal's on-device AI can manage your notes directly from the chat — no need to navigate to another screen. Speak or type naturally; the AI figures out what to do.
Notes
| Request | What happens |
|---|---|
| "Save a note: dentist Tuesday 3 PM" | Creates a note with title and body |
| "Note that I need to review the proposal" | Creates a note with AI-chosen title |
| "What notes do I have about the project?" | Searches notes, returns up to 5 results |
| "Update my shopping list — add oat milk" | Patches the body of the matching note |
| "Delete my draft ideas note" | Permanently deletes the matching note |
The AI can set title, body, and tags when creating or updating a note. See the Notes guide for full details.
Conversation Export
Share any chat session as formatted text using the share button in the toolbar.
- Open a conversation.
- Tap the Share icon in the top-right toolbar.
- Choose any destination — Notes, Mail, Messages, or any other app.
The exported text includes the full message history, formatted with speaker labels and timestamps.
Export a session to Notes after a planning session so you have a permanent record outside the app.
Full-Text Message Search
Search across all sessions for any word or phrase.
- From the session list, pull down to reveal the search bar (or tap the magnifier icon).
- Type your query.
- Matching sessions appear with a snippet showing the matched text in context.
Tap any result to open that session, scrolled to the first match.
Search covers the full body of every message — not just session titles. Older sessions are included automatically.
Pinned Prompts
Pin frequently used messages so you can reuse them in one tap.
Pinning a message
Long-press any message you sent, then tap Pin. The chip appears above the input bar whenever the input field is empty.
Using a pinned prompt
Tap any chip above the input bar to fill the input field with that prompt. Edit if needed, then send.
Managing pins
Long-press a chip to remove it. You can pin up to 20 prompts. Pins are saved across app restarts.
When the 20-prompt limit is reached, adding a new prompt automatically removes the least-used one (or the oldest if usage counts are tied), so your most-used shortcuts are never evicted.
Pinned prompts are saved as a JSON file in the app's Documents directory (pinned_prompts.json), protected with iOS complete-file protection. They are not stored in iCloud or on any server.
Pin prompts like "What's on my calendar today?" or "Find my next free hour" to access your most common queries instantly.
For developers
See architecture/system-prompt for how the AI's context window is assembled — including calendar data, notes, and user preferences — before each inference call.
