The Captio app is a God-send for those who need countless reminders to do simple tasks like paying the bills and calling home--myself included. The app lets you jot down written or picture notes and then email them to yourself.
I am an admitted user of email notes, but it is kind of a pain to actually open up my email account and write myself an email just to ensure that I won't forget to take the trash out. The Captio app cuts out all the hassle by letting you email yourself reminders without having to log onto your email account to do it.
The Captio app is optimized for speed and even saves reminders in case you're in an area without Internet access. The app is out now for the low price of $1 and is compatible with iPhone, iPad and iPod touch.
