ThoughtFerry: Quick Capture
Capture text, links, and supported attachments locally first, then deliberately route durable captures to a local inbox, a selected document tree, or a configured HTTPS webhook.
Quick Facts
- Platform
- Android
- Purchase model
- Free + one-time Pro
- Account required?
- No
- Network
- Network access is required only for destinations or services the user explicitly invokes and for optional purchase/reward flows; core local capture remains available without a ThoughtFerry account.
What can ThoughtFerry: Quick Capture help with?
Common problem statements this app is designed to address:
- Capture a thought immediately on Android without deciding its final destination first
- Share text, links, or a supported attachment into a durable local inbox and route it later
- Route captured text or URLs to local Markdown storage or a user-configured HTTPS webhook
Screenshots
Key Features
- Capture text or URLs directly in the Android app and durably commit the capture locally before external delivery begins
- Receive text and one supported attachment through the Android Sharesheet with app-private handoff and attachment staging
- Keep unresolved captures in a local Inbox with visible queued, failed, ambiguous, and delivered outcome state
- Open the capture composer quickly from the Android Quick Settings Tile, launcher shortcut, or home-screen widget without silently creating or routing a capture
- Write routed content to a user-selected Android Storage Access Framework document tree
- Send captured text or URLs to a user-configured HTTPS webhook using conservative retry and duplicate-risk semantics
- Protect complete webhook endpoint values and custom webhook header values with Android Keystore-backed encrypted secret storage
- Use WorkManager for durable network wake-ups while Room persists delivery state and single-executor ownership
- Use optional one-time Lifetime Pro through Google Play Billing; an explicitly user-requested rewarded-ad path can grant temporary Pro when configured
- Core capture requires no ThoughtFerry account, developer-hosted capture backend, analytics SDK, or cloud sync
Frequently Asked Questions
Is ThoughtFerry a notes app or task manager?
No. ThoughtFerry is a capture and routing utility. It preserves the capture locally, then sends it to a destination you choose; the destination remains the system of record.
What can ThoughtFerry capture?
ThoughtFerry supports direct text and URL capture plus Android Sharesheet capture for text and one supported attachment.
Where can ThoughtFerry send captures?
The current release supports the local Inbox, Android Storage Access Framework document-tree delivery, and HTTPS webhook delivery for text and URLs.
Does ThoughtFerry upload my captures to Quazmoz?
No. ThoughtFerry has no Quazmoz-hosted capture backend. Content leaves the app only when you select a destination that requires an external operation.
How are webhook secrets stored?
Complete webhook endpoint values and custom header values are encrypted in Android Keystore-backed local secret storage. Normal Room records and queued request snapshots keep opaque versioned references instead of raw secret values.
Is ThoughtFerry available on Google Play now?
Yes. ThoughtFerry is now available on Google Play for supported Android devices.
