Gather is made and maintained by Spencer Chang, an indie engineer and internet artist based in San Francisco, California. You can learn more about the philosophy behind Gather in this interview with Are.na (https://www.are.na/editorial/an-interview-with-spencer-chang)

Gather emerged from a personal need for a tool to facilitate my own archival practice—something that helped me collect the daily inspiration I encountered, connect them to relevant containers, and revisit ideas that important to me.

The right amount of opinion in a software

This is a super great field journal app to jot down and go back all random thoughts in life through a simple motion: Gather, then sort On a technical side, I appreciate this as a note app that doesn't force our tendency for categorization but account for it through the gather & sort UX. It gives me just the right amount of structure. Really appreciate the clean app!

thank you!

I am so happy that Gather exists. I tried so many other ways to make my phone notes feel like they had life in them, and this app finally made a space feel personal and at home, the way a physical notebook does. I also love that it’s offline oriented and that it connects to are.na! <3
