Prepare your Meetings

Before entering a meeting, have a clear view on what is its purpose and what is the outcome you want to achieve. Being conscious of your ultimate goals helps you prevent side discussions and deviate from the original purpose of the meeting. Minutes will create a Preparation Space for each of your notes that you can use to quickly note down your key objectives before the meeting.

Manage Time

Always keep a reference of time during the meeting to ensure that the discussions flow according to the time available. Minutes provides a convenient Timer during meetings that will keep you informed of the remaining time and flag the last minutes of your meetings.

Calendar and Contacts Integration

Create notes from your calendar events to automatically import title, date, location, attendants and agenda details.

Meetings Lists Grouped by Date

Minutes are conveniently shown in chronological order and grouped by date, showing meetings from the last 7 days, last 30 days, ... Easily implement the healthy habit of reviewing your meeting notes at the end of the week, making sure you don't miss essential information or lose track of relevant actions.

Formatting Tools

Minutes App introduces a demanded feature: improved formatting options. With its new formatting buttons, you can now specify some of the most used styles in meeting minutes;

• Header
• Outline, including the ability to indent or unindent items.
• Comment, subtly highlighting the paragraph in a different color. (Many users are inheriting notes from previous meetings or agendas, and want to highlight paragraphs as a mean to identify them as actual comments to existing notes).

Header and Comment buttons share the same physical space and are accessible through its sliding design. Simply slide right or left to reveal the two options.

Minutes formatting tools follow a pseudo-markdown syntax in edit mode and is translated into a fully formatted text in view mode and in the meeting minutes.

Pending actions from previous meetings

During recurrent meetings, it is very common to follow up on existing open items from previous sessions. Minutes App facilitates this by conveniently organising recurrent meetings in a threaded view. In version 1.3, a new convenient method has been introduced: when you create or view a specific instance of a recurrent meeting, the Follow Up Actions show a new section 'Pending actions from previous meetings'. This section shows you all the open items from existing instances prior to the one you are viewing. This section is also actionable: tap an item to complete, view its details, change it.
