Shared notes board — family & group updates on one Living Lyst
Notes only. No checkboxes. Everyone posts through one link — attributed and safe.
ReferLyst Shared notes is the purest Living Lyst: a simple board where anyone with the link posts a note after entering their name. Perfect for family reunion updates, meeting notes, brainstorms, and group threads — lighter than Google Docs, clearer than a group chat.
The problem
Sound familiar? These are the pain points people search for before they find a better way.
- Family updates scattered across three group chats and a Notes app
- Meeting notes in Google Docs nobody opens on their phone
- No one knows who posted the latest update or when
- New relatives can't find the thread from last year's reunion
