Thought: A new application from Trinket Software (Beta)

Yesterday Trinket Software released a beta version of a new application called Thought.

With “Thought” it is possible to quickly keep track of your thoughts while you’re on the go by sending yourself SMS or Email messages.
And basically thats it.

the 2 screens below are the most important screens of Thought.

1. The Main screen where you can type a message and click send
2. The options screen where you can change the account which sends your Thoughts (SMS or Email).

The Main Screen

The main screen basically is a complete text input field. When your account is set to E-mail you can write your thoughts in unlimited characters. However when your account is set to SMS – Thought won’t let you type more than 160 characters. When you click the “Send” button on the bottom of the screen the email or SMS is send and the application automatically quits.

The Options screen

The Options screen gives the possibility to change between SMS and Email easily.
If you enter your own mobile phone number, change the “Send Thoughts using” field to e-mail, and then change it back you’ll see that the entered mobile phone number is stored on the device. This is also with the stored e-mail address and Account to use. So you only have to set the “Send to” data once.

Thoughts & Wrap-up

Personally I think an application like Thought isn’t really necessary. There are enough (freeware) applications to track your thoughts and tasks and have more functionality.
BUT – If you’re looking for a no-nonsense application that sends your thoughts to your mobile phone or email-address Thought can be a good option for you.

Remind that Thought currently is in beta and that Functionality, interface etc. can be changed compared to the final version.
