Toss — User Guide
Toss by Oplify

Capture anything.
Send it instantly.

A quick guide to getting the most out of Toss — your frictionless thought-to-inbox app.

The three capture buttons

The home screen has one large hero button in the centre and two smaller buttons below. You can choose which button takes the hero spot in Settings.

T
Text
Type a thought, pick a destination (Pro), tap Toss. Done.
🎙
Voice
Tap to record. Tap Toss when you're done — up to 1 minute.
📎
Attach
Tap for the file picker. Long-press to open the camera instead.

What happens when you tap Toss?

Your capture is saved on your device instantly and sent in the background. You'll see "Tossed ✓" — brief, non-blocking. You don't wait for anything.

What if you're offline?

No problem. The capture is saved locally and sent automatically the moment you're back online. A small pending count appears on the home screen.

The core principle

Toss is not a note-taking app. It doesn't replace your task manager or inbox. Its only job is to capture a thought instantly and forward it to the right email address — so it ends up in the system you already use.

Voice captures

The hands-free flow. Tap, speak, Toss. On Pro, the AI does the rest.

01
🎙
Tap Voice
Recording starts immediately. A waveform animates with your voice.
02
🌊
Speak
A timer counts up to 1 minute, then stops automatically.
03
✈️
Tap Toss
Saved and queued instantly. You're free to do the next thing.
04
AI enhances
Pro only: transcription, title, summary, intent tag, and routing — all async.
What the AI does with your voice (Pro)
🏷
Title
A short, clear subject line — max 8 words — summarising what you said, in your language.
📋
Summary
Up to 3 bullet points distilled from your recording.
🗂
Intent tag
Tagged as Task, Note, or Idea — so you know at a glance what to do with it.
📬
Smart routing
AI picks the best destination from your list. "Buy milk" goes to Personal, not Work. Falls back to your default if confidence is low.

On Free

Your audio is sent as a raw attachment to your default inbox. No transcription, no AI. Still instant.

AI never blocks you

The AI pipeline always runs after the send confirmation. Your "Tossed ✓" means the capture is safe — the enhanced email follows in the background.

Photo & file captures

After picking a photo or file, you're shown three options. The more context you add, the richer the email you receive.

Toss it
Send immediately. The raw file lands in your chosen inbox with no extras.
+ Text context Pro
Type a note alongside the file. AI rewrites the subject line for a cleaner email.
+ Voice context Pro
Record a voice memo explaining the file. AI transcribes it, writes a full summary, and attaches both the file and audio.

Max file size

10 MB per capture. If your file exceeds this, you'll see an inline error and the flow is cancelled — nothing is sent.

Long-pressing Attach

Instead of the file picker, this opens your camera directly. Useful for snapping a document, whiteboard, or receipt on the spot.

Destination chip

On Pro, a destination chip is always visible on the photo and file screen. Tap it to change where this specific capture goes.

Shared from another app?

Toss appears in the Android share sheet. Sharing an image or file from any app drops it directly into the right Toss capture screen.

Email destinations

Destinations are the inboxes your captures go to. You start with one ("Me") and can add as many as you like.

01
Open Settings
Tap your profile or the settings icon.
02
Find Destinations
Scroll to the Email Destinations section.
03
Tap Add
Enter a name (e.g. "Work") and an email address.
04
Set your default
The ★ icon marks the default. Tap any row's star to change it.
Rules to know

You must always have at least one destination — you can't delete the last one.

Exactly one destination is always the default. Free captures always go there.

CC toggle (Pro): when enabled, your default inbox is CC'd whenever AI routes a capture to a different destination. Good for keeping oversight until you trust the routing.

The destination chip during capture lets you override for that one capture only — your default stays unchanged.

Edit any destination with the pencil icon, or delete it with the bin. The default destination is always shown first.

History

Tap the clock icon in the top-right of the home screen to see all your captures, grouped by day. Available on Free and Pro.

Status indicators
✓ Sent (green)   ⏳ Queued   🔄 Processing   ✗ Failed (red)
🔁
Retry a failed capture
Tap a failed row, then tap the Retry button. It re-queues and tries again immediately.
🔍
Search
The search bar at the top filters by content and destination name as you type — across all retained captures.
🗑
Delete a capture
Swipe left on any row to remove it from your device. The sent email is not affected.
🕐
Auto-purge
Sent captures older than your retention setting (default: 30 days) are deleted automatically on each launch. Queued and failed captures are never auto-deleted. Change this in Settings → History.

Pending filter

Tapping the queue status banner on the home screen opens History pre-filtered to show only pending and failed captures. Tap "clear filter" to see everything again.

Free vs Pro

You get 14 days of full Pro from the moment you install — no credit card needed. After that, you choose what fits.

Free Always available

Unlimited captures of any type. Offline queue with auto-retry. Raw delivery to your default inbox. No AI, no destination selection — just instant capture and send.

Pro Subscription

Everything in Free, plus AI processing, destination chips on every capture, smart subject rewrites, full voice pipeline (transcription, routing, intent), and CC on routing.

What Pro adds
📍
Destination picker
A chip on every capture screen lets you choose which inbox it goes to, overriding the default for that one capture.
✍️
AI subject lines
Text and photo/file+text captures get a rewritten subject line, sent async after the raw email so your inbox is never delayed.
🤖
Full AI pipeline for voice
Whisper transcription, a clean title, up to 3-bullet summary, intent tag (Task / Note / Idea), and automatic routing to the right destination.
📨
CC on routing
When AI routes a voice capture to a non-default inbox, your default is CC'd so you never miss it. Toggle in Settings.
🌐
Language setting
Force a specific language for transcription and AI output, or leave it on Auto so Toss detects it from your speech.

14-day free trial

Full Pro features from install day, no credit card required. A banner on the home screen and settings screens shows how many days remain. When the trial ends, Toss automatically drops to the Free tier — your captures and destinations are preserved.

Tips & settings

A few things worth knowing before you get going.

Customise your home screen

Go to Settings → Home screen → Primary capture button. Choose Voice, Text, or Attach as your hero button. The change applies instantly — no restart.

The two smaller buttons below the hero are always the other two capture types.

Sender name

By default, your emails show "Toss" as the sender name. Go to Settings → Display name to personalise it — e.g. "John via Toss".

A live preview below the field shows exactly how the sender line will appear in your recipients' inboxes.

Share from any app (Android)

Toss appears in the Android system share sheet. Share a link, image, or file from any app and it opens directly in the right Toss capture screen.

If you're not logged in, Toss holds the shared content and asks you to sign in first. Once you're authenticated, it's waiting for you exactly where you left off.

Tapping Cancel when entering via share intent closes Toss and returns you to the app you came from.

The trial countdown banner

Shown on the home screen and at the top of settings during your 14-day trial. Turns amber when 5 days remain, red on the last day.

Tap anywhere on the banner to open the upgrade screen. The banner disappears once you convert to paid Pro.

History retention

Go to Settings → History → Keep history for. Options: 7 days, 30 days (default), 90 days, or Forever. Sent captures older than this are removed automatically on each app launch.

To wipe everything at once: Clear all history in the same section. A confirmation dialog appears first. Your sent emails are not affected.
