App Giveaway: Alert Notes for iPhone
Alert Notes is a nifty little apps that converts normal, plain English notes into reminders.
If you're a fast typer, Alert Notes is probably quicker than other apps that require you to turn dials to select times and dates. I love how Alert Notes recognize contacts but doesn't make you choose anything about the contact until the moment you need access to the information. It's one less step to the alert-created process.
This app understands dates, relative dates and phrases that indicate recurring alerts. It's also smart enough to detect email addresses, phone numbers, street addresses, URLs, names and initials from your Contacts for quick access later. It's the ideal app to keep all those tidbits you want to be reminded of later.
- Set alerts using plain English
- Recurring alerts
- Detects emails, phone numbers, street addresses, URLs, names and initials from your device's Contacts
- Fast search that updates as you type
- Full support for landscape mode
- Archiving of past notes
- Send a text message, initiate a FaceTime call, or share the contact info for detected names and initials
- Persistent alerts mode

Update includes:
- Landscape mode support
- Ability to quickly send a text message, initiate a FaceTime call, or share the contact info for names and initials detected from your notes' text
- Lengthened some of the alert sounds, when appropriate
- Improved detection for the days of the week
- Improved detection and behavior for phrases like "nightly", "each night" and "every night"
- Removed previously arbitrary limit to the number of info items (names, initials, phone numbers, email addresses and URLs) that can be detected in a note
- Alert sound preview now stops playing as soon as you leave the alert sound chooser screen
- Note titles and alert messages are now consistently capitalized

I need someone to make the alert for me!
looks nice.
That's sick I hope nuance will allow something of this nature. Seems like reminders already has some of these capabilities but this looks really sick!!
Sounds cool! I'd love to give it try!
This would be great in conjunction with Dragon Dictation.
Give me this and I won't stress anymore by waiting for the Reminders.app included in iOS 5. ;)
This would be great in conjunction with Dragon Dictation!

Plain English? What's that?
Nice app, such a great idea. I've been looking for something smarter than the detection build in iOS4. Thanks!
Me! OMG!! Me!
Whoa! This is looks awesome, it would totally wake me up for school!! I could use it during class to set alerts and reminders for upcoming test days and homework due dates. Using regular old text to set alarms... genius!!!!

Looks like a keeper
I can't wait to try this app out.
Very interesting!
Well, this app looks very promising. Combining Notes and Calendar with alert is useful specially when I use Notes a lot to keep everything.
So I can get rid of other task reminder apps for good.
$1.99 is not expensive at all, but possibly getting it as a gift is better.. ^_^
Looks like a very useful app. Would love to try it out.
I'd love to try this. It looks interesting!

I really would like to get this app also i need it getting older and starting to forget things. Forgot what else is was going to type.
Looks to be an interesting app
Even on a keyboard as good as the one on my Iphone, my typing is painfully slow. This looks like it could make life a bit easier.
OK. I'd like this I think.
