Controller for HomeKit vs VoiceJournalBuddy

Get more out of your smart home. Your HomeKit and Matter devices can do more than on and off: Controller for HomeKit gives you dashboards you build yourself, workflows that run over several steps, months of history, and a floor plan you control directly. YOUR OWN DASHBOARD Your devices sit where you need them, instead of in a list. - Views you compose yourself from tiles: per home, per person, and if you want, per device. One for the iPad on the wall, one for the iPhone in your pocket. - More than 25 tile variants: devices, scenes, workflows, time, weather, calendar, charts, battery warnings. - Five standard sizes, or drag your own size on the grid. - Visibility conditions: a tile or a whole section appears only when you need it. - Plus widgets for your Home Screen and a view of your own on Apple Watch. CONTROLLER AI Describe what you need in plain language: a dashboard, a scene, an automation or a workflow. Controller builds it, and you adjust it however you like afterwards. MORE THAN A SCHEDULE Two devices become a sequence that thinks along. - Workflows: multiple steps, conditions and branches for sequences a single automation cannot express. - Automations with advanced triggers and conditions. - States: virtual switches that capture how your home currently stands and drive your workflows accordingly. - Custom notifications for anything you want to know about. - NFC tags: one tap and the workflow runs. YOUR SENSORS ARE ALREADY MEASURING Controller remembers the values and makes them readable. - Charts: see how temperature, humidity or battery level develop over weeks and months, across every device and brand. - Maintenance: which battery is empty, which device is unreachable, which automation is broken. - Logs: every activity and every change, traceable. - Smart folders: devices and automations grouped by filters you define. - Floor Plan: scan your home with the LiDAR sensor of your iPhone or iPad and control your devices right on the plan. - Controller Hub: a dedicated iPhone, iPad, Apple TV or Mac runs your workflows automatically. Charts and States require Controller Hub. SHARE THE WORK, NOT JUST THE SWITCHES - Home Sharing: pass your entire setup to the people you live with. For each person you choose between the whole app or only the dashboards you share with them. - Setup codes: your HomeKit and Matter codes stay safe in the app and never get lost. - Backups: save your setup and restore it whenever you need to.

VoiceJournalBuddy is a journal you speak instead of type. Tap record, say what's on your mind, and your words appear as text — punctuated, dated, and saved. A full entry takes about as long as it takes to say it out loud. That difference matters more than it sounds. Most journals die because typing an entry feels like a chore at exactly the moment you have something worth writing down. Talking doesn't. EVERYTHING STAYS ON YOUR IPHONE Speech is transcribed by your iPhone's built-in on-device recognition — your voice is not sent anywhere to be processed. Entries are stored in local storage on your device. There is no account to create, no server, no sync, and no analytics. Nothing you write is transmitted, and nothing is ever seen by us. Face ID (or your passcode) locks the app on launch and again after it's been in the background, so your journal stays shut even if your phone is unlocked and in someone else's hand. HOW IT WORKS Press the microphone and start talking. A live waveform responds to your voice and words appear as you speak, with punctuation added automatically. Stop whenever you're done, then edit the text, give it a title if you want one, and save. Each recording runs up to three minutes — tap "Record more" to keep dictating into the same entry for as long as you need. Every entry is timestamped the moment you save it and filed by day, so your journal builds itself in order: Today, Yesterday, This week, and back through the months. WHAT'S INSIDE • Live voice-to-text with automatic punctuation and a responsive waveform • Automatic timestamps and day-by-day grouping • A rotating daily prompt for the days you don't know where to start • Folders — file entries by theme and filter the list to one folder at a time • A calm reading view with a serif typeface and a word count with read time • Add to an old entry later, by voice or by keyboard • Select several entries at once to move, delete, or export • Export any entry or set of entries as a plain text file through the iOS share sheet — Mail, Files, Messages, AirDrop, wherever you want it • Face ID app lock • Full light and dark mode, with a warm palette designed to be easy on the eyes at night • Gentle haptic feedback throughout A NOTE ON LANGUAGE Dictation is currently English (US) only. Everything else in the app works regardless of what you write, but speech recognition will not transcribe other languages accurately yet. PRIVACY JournalBuddy collects nothing. No account, no email address, no usage data, no crash reporting, no advertising identifiers, no third-party SDKs of any kind. Your entries live on your phone, and they stay there unless you choose to export them yourself. Start with one entry. Say the thing you'd have forgotten by tomorrow.
