Text
Selected text from a message, an article, an email body, a note. Sense reads the dates inside.
How it works
Step 01
A birthday invite in iMessage, an event page in Safari, a flyer in Photos.
Step 02
The iOS share sheet appears - choose Sense from the app row. First time only: tap "More" to enable Sense in the share list.
Step 03
Sense opens, extracts the event from the shared content, and shows you what it found. Edit or save - it lands on your family calendar.
What you can share
Selected text from a message, an article, an email body, a note. Sense reads the dates inside.
Photo from your Camera Roll, a screenshot, a flyer image. One per share.
Eventbrite event page, Meetup link, restaurant reservation, news article with a date.
PDFs and Word docs don't come through the share sheet today. Use chat document upload for those.
One image or one URL per share. Two photos? Share twice, or upload them in chat.
Shared content goes to your Sense account, gets processed by AI, and is deleted within 90 days.
Where share shines
Long-press the message, share to Sense - date, time, location all extracted.
Reading about a museum night or library workshop? Share the page URL into Sense.
That flyer you snapped at school pickup - share from Photos, no need to open Sense first.
Coach's away-game schedule in a long message - share the text directly. For full WhatsApp support (photos, PDFs, two-way chat, Android), see WhatsApp to calendar.
Work all-hands moved to a new time. Share the Slack message text into Sense.
Quick notes you typed during a school meeting - select and share to Sense to file the dates.
FAQ
Text, a single image, and a single URL per share. Sense reads whatever you share and extracts the events. PDFs and other documents go through chat upload instead, not the share sheet.
The iOS share extension is live. Android share-target support is on the roadmap. For now, Android users can paste content directly into Sense chat for the same result.
Sense opens, reads the shared content, and shows you the extracted event(s). Review what was found, edit anything, and save - the event goes onto your family calendar.
Yes. Any iOS app that exposes the system share sheet - Messages, WhatsApp, Slack, Discord, email apps, browsers, Photos, Notes - can share into Sense.
