May 15, 2014 in Productivity
Cairo, Egypt – Tryvin, a startup founded by two x-Microsoft employees, announces Boximize an iPhone/iPad app that helps bring the power of personal databases to your notes.
Mostafa Ashour and Ahmed Sabry, who have previously worked for Microsoft Research, noticed a gap in the the current note taking app scene and decided to take a stab at filling this gap. “The current scene of note-taking apps is filled with beautiful and simple to use apps. However, we believe that as your notes grow larger and larger, your notes turns into this one big mess. We needed a paradigm shift that helps you file your notes in a different manner and we thought that an easy to use database format would be very suitable. We spent a lot of time on fine-tuning the user experience to make Boximize the new standard for note taking.”, says Mostafa Ashour, managing partner at Tryvin
If you like the simplicity of note taking apps, then Boximize is a note taking app where the note isn’t just a blank page instead the note is a fully customizable form containing fields, making inputting your data faster, easier and less error-prone. Your data also becomes sortable, searchable and more organized. Thus bringing the power of personal databases to your notes.
