I like checklists. Plain, simple checklists. And I couldn't find a nice, polished app that did as LITTLE as I wanted: • Create and add to lists as quickly as I can type. • Sync and share lists with others using iCloud. So I made Ticked. And that's all it does.
Spectroslide
Read full descriptionHide full description
Spectroslide is a static noise generator that allows the user to discover their own custom sound. Slide up and down to navigate to the different frequencies ("red", "pink", and "brown") and background colors, and left and right to change the audible pitch and color hue. The app will save your favorite spot, and you can change it any time you like after a 1 second press on the screen.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Spectroslide at Free against Ticked 2's $0.99. Ticked 2's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 9 months) and iOS requirement (14.1 vs 17.5). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
