TimeStory vs reeDminder

TimeStory for iPad/iPhone is a paid app (one-time purchase or annual subscription) for creating graphical timelines--project plans, roadmaps, personal journals, histories, and more, on scales from days to centuries--quickly and easily, while avoiding the complexity of project management tools. The free download lets you open, view, and share timelines created on TimeStory for Mac. If you want to create and edit timelines on your iPad/iPhone, you can activate the built-in free trial, and then, if you choose, pay once or subscribe annually. The free trial does not auto-renew into a subscription, so there’s no risk. Use natural touchscreen gestures to navigate and scale the timeline. Create an event just by tapping one of the New Event buttons then tapping or dragging on the timeline where you want it. Attach photos or image files. Divide your timeline into sections. Import your own SVG or PNG icons to mark points in time. Apply background colors, fonts, event shapes, text alignment, and more. Share your work in PDF or PNG format, exporting an entire timeline or just a section of it. On iPad, TimeStory has great support for Apple Pencil and external keyboards and pointers, works great in Split View and other multitasking modes, and supports multiple windows so you can open multiple documents at once or keep it open next to your research. Versions: This version of TimeStory was built to natively support iPad and iPhone. **Note: TimeStory for Mac is a separate purchase.** More info at https://timestory.app/get/ Web: Learn more on our website (https://timestory.app/), with example timelines, release history, and documentation.

A reed goes off long before you notice. reeDminder shows you when. For clarinet, saxophone, oboe and bassoon players who are tired of guessing. Rate a reed out of ten after a session. Once it has three ratings, reeDminder shows a second number beside its average — the mean of its last three. A reed with twenty good sessions behind it has a lifetime average that barely moves when it starts to go, but the trailing three drops straight away. That gap is the thing a notebook cannot show you. WHAT IT DOES ▷ Rotations. A rotation set is the reeds you are actively playing. Start a session and reeDminder suggests the next reed in the set, picking up from the one you played last. Play whatever you like — it records the reed you actually played, not the one it offered. ▷ Sessions. One tap starts the timer, another ends it. Add a note while you play and rate the reed when you stop. ▷ Recordings. Capture how a reed actually sounded. A rating tells you what you thought of it; a recording tells you what it was. A month later those are not always the same thing. ▷ Break-in cycles. Define your own steps, and reeDminder tracks which one a replacement reed is on. ▷ Instruments and mouthpieces. Keep them alongside your reeds, and record which reed was played on what. ▷ Full history. Every session, note, rating and recording, for every reed you have owned — including the ones you have retired. OFFLINE BY DESIGN Everything lives in a database on your device. reeDminder makes no network requests at all: no account, no sign-up, nothing to sync, and no way for your playing history to end up anywhere you did not put it. Back it up by exporting a single file and keeping it wherever you keep your files. Free. Every feature, from the moment you install. No ads, no account, no tracking. iPad has its own layout rather than a stretched phone screen. Replaces the notebook, the spreadsheet, the post-it on the case.
