## What is thoughtnuggets?

Got the mind munchies? Try a thought nugget.

Thought Nuggets deals out a few short quotes each day — little bits of distilled wisdom to nibble on when your brain has a moment of downtime. Each nugget comes with an optional "Main course": a longer reflection on what the quote means and why it stuck.

It started as a dad's commonplace journal for his kids: quotes heard or read over the years that sparked a thought, challenged a belief, or were simply worth a second look, along with his thoughts on each. It's not a self-help app. It's an invitation to pause, think, and maybe start a few bonfires of contemplation of your own.

A NEW HANDFUL EVERY DAY
• A few nuggets a day, dealt at random with no repeats until you've seen them all
• Open the Main course for the story and reflection behind each quote
• Like a nugget to keep it in your Leftovers and revisit it any time

CAPTURE YOUR OWN
• Add your own nuggets by hand, or share text into the app from anywhere
• Add a source and your own notes on why it matters to you
• Mix your nuggets into the daily deal alongside the built-in ones
• Share your collection with friends, and import theirs

MADE FOR YOUR DAY
• Home-screen widget with today's nuggets
• Optional daily reminder
• Seasonal themes (spring, summer, fall and winter) that can follow the calendar
• Optional iCloud sync for your own nuggets across devices
• No account needed

If Thought Nuggets brings you something worthwhile, you can leave an optional tip from the Support the Developer page. Thanks for reading along.
