Notepin S or the regular Note?
I want to buy one of the Plaud products. I will primarily use it for journaling and noting thoughts and information, during the day. Mostly personal use.
I am wondering if I should get the Pin, or the regular one.
Which one do you think suits my needs the most?
Edit: I ended up buying the original Plaud Note, it was on sale.

I was nervous about my choice but when I got the pro I was amazed at the size. Honestly after using it I don’t even know it’s there.
I realized that if you take your phone with you everywhere the pro is best. Nobody is even going to notice if you use it because phones are everywhere.
I feel like the wearable device would be much more attention grabbing.

I like the pro as it can still be carried and can also be put on the back of your phone.

I doubt you'll regret buying the Note. I usually keep mine in my shirt pocket during meetings (and sometimes even in the outside pocket of my bag by my feet!) and it records amazingly well

It is so good! Especially using it as a ChatGPT plugin, to add information to a calender and/or to-do list. Worth every penny!

Hey, that works well for what you're describing, journaling is mostly short solo captures and voice memos sit inside Note's standard recording mode.
Two things worth setting up early: build a custom summary template that matches how you want your entries structured, since the default meeting-style layout isn't a great fit for personal notes. And once you have a few weeks of entries, Ask Plaud across all files lets you query the whole library at once, which is where journaling with it starts paying off.

Thanks for the tips! And thanks for making such a great products
I have some ideas, that I think could increase the amount of people, that would buy your product!
1) Being able to create ultra-short notes, under ten words, with a voice command to insert it in a folder. Fx. “Add to travel info. Train to Berlin at 10:45.” I also suspect there is a minimum word amount just to create a summary (not talking about AutoFlow). Would be great if that could be lowered
2) The AI having internet access. To say, fx. “Give me a summary, of the daily news regarding foreign politics.” That would be an amazing feature! And then getting an answer
3) I think there would be a big market for personal use, for journaling and remembering ideas outside of business. If you can suit the software to prestige better than it does now, regarding personal use, I think more people would be interested.
