How many great ideas have you highlighted, only to close the book and never see them again? We all do it. We dog-ear pages, snap messy photos that get lost in our camera roll, or scribble in margins. We tell ourselves we’ll remember that profound sentence, but we rarely do. Sunday fixes this. It is a purpose-built tool designed to make capturing wisdom as seamless as reading it. Reading is an investment of your time and attention. Sunday ensures you get to keep the returns.
Hey everyone! 👋
I’m Maged, the maker behind Sunday.
This started as a small weekend experiment. Two weeks later, I had a full app built with Antigravity and Xcode and decided to launch it.
The problem:
When I'm reading books and find a quote that hits, it either gets lost in my camera roll or I mark the page and never look back. Either way, forgotten.
So I built Sunday to solve it. Stupidly simple, beautiful, and actually works.
What it does:
Point your camera at any page and Sunday captures the text in seconds.
Save your quotes as beautiful cards you'll actually want to revisit
Share quotes on stunning backgrounds that look like art, not screenshots
Everything stays on your phone. No cloud, no servers, completely private
No feeds, no gamification, no noise. Just a calm space for your library
Built for readers who find sentences that change them and want to keep them somewhere worthy.
I’d love to hear your feedback.
Thanks,
Maged
@maged_morsy I absolutely love the app and it solved a big problem I thought it is ok to live with. If we added something like tags powered by AI or something to detect the sentiment or context of the quote I promise I would never ask for anything else ❤️🤩
@subham_nayak3 The primary concept is to build a space for you to save your quotes. Do you think the social aspect is important for you? Appreciate your interaction and feedback Subham

@subham_nayak3 @maged_morsy Agree, I think it could help to scale your platform. Some of the fast growing startups used this tactic. For example, Lovable has in-built social sharing (every app created via their platform is shareable via URL). When they launched, it helped turn user creations into organic marketing engine and contributed to scaling their product.
@subham_nayak3 @alina_petrova3 I have already built a social sharing for the quote you saved as a beautiful poster with attractive backgrounds but the social feature of the app is not yet implemented (seeing others saved quotes and follow others etc)
I appreciate your feedback tho. Very valuable. thanks
I dog-ear pages and then forget which book they came from three months later. Sunday's camera capture pulling the text automatically would fix that entirely for me. On the social angle Subham raised... sharing a quote as one of those styled poster cards is the right first move. In-app feeds and follows sound like a retention play, but they also change what the app feels like. The calm private library is the whole pitch. I'd keep social as export-only for a while and see if the share cards drive organic discovery on their own before adding a feed inside Sunday.
@subham_nayak3 can you clarify your question?
@gurmehar_singh You guys have LOTS of great ideas!! nice one I will check how I can add that to my roadmap
Obooko averaging 26 minutes reading time on an ad-supported platform that hasn't even put ads in the reader yet... that's the kind of session depth most content apps would kill for. Revenue sharing funded by free reader ad revenue is the YouTube model applied to books, and holding off on in-reader ads until the UX is right tells me you've learned from platforms that monetized too early and killed retention. Cross-device sync with no account for browsing is a smart onboarding call. Someone goes from doomscrolling to reading a chapter in under a minute.
Really love the idea behind Sunday collecting and revisiting meaningful book quotes in one place is such a simple but powerful concept for readers. The experience feels calm and focused, which fits the product perfectly. One feature that could make it even better would be a folder or category system to save quotes based on different moods or vibes. Adding a search bar to quickly find saved quotes would also make the app much more usable as collections grow. Great work on this!
@ahmed_sarfraz coming to Sunday future versions, Ahmed! Thanks for the comments and ideas.
Are you planning to add book metadata integration (like auto-filling book title/author when scanning a page)? Also, will there be cross-device sync or cloud backup so I can access my quote collection from my phone and laptop?
@xin_hong the book meta data is a cool feature indeed will invetigate how it is possible. thanks for that great idea Hox!
Actually I gathered a lot of great ideas from comments section here :D
@xin_hong for the cloud sync. in the future tha twill be there but might be a paid feature. Would that be something you welling to pay for and if yes one flat fee or a monthly/yearly small fee?
@maged_morsy I will definitely willing to pay and for me I prefer flat fee👍
Would be great to have an Home Screen widget rotating the quotes
@vahe_brsoyan that is great idea! will add it to backlog for next versions thanks Vahe!!!
