Curator

New app created by Daniel Nordh aimed at letting you organize notes visually. iPad-first, I’ve been trying Curator for the past week and it’s a nice version 1.0: sort of like Pinterest, but without social features and focused on collecting photos, text notes, and live websites that you can pin on your boards. Everything happens through drag & drop and the app looks good on iOS 7 and the Retina display.

If you want more, you can import images from Dropbox, Flickr, iOS photos, and more services using a built-in media picker based on Filepicker.io. Curator has essentially no learning curve, and I see it as the Vesper of Pinterest-like apps: it’s fast, easy to use, but it has no sync or advanced features for now. I’d recommend Curator to people who use an iPad as their primary computer and just need a simple app to organize the things they like without signing up for a web service or learning to use Evernote.

The business model is also interesting: the app is free, but there’s a $6.99 In-App Purchase if you want to create more than five boards.
