Finally, a journal you just talk to. Say what happened. Shower Talk writes it down, sorts it into the parts of your life, and remembers all of it — so months later you can ask what was going on. YOU TALK No blank page, no prompts, no streak to keep. Tap the orb and say what happened — a voice journal entry most people finish in under two minutes. Typing works too, on the days you cannot talk. IT SORTS ITSELF Every audio diary entry is transcribed and read for the people in it, the moods, what you did and what you kept thinking about — and filed into four areas of your life: health, relationships, fulfillment and stability. You never tag, file or title anything. THE PEOPLE IN YOUR LIFE Say a name once and they get their own page: every mention, every quote, and how you tend to feel when they come up. PATTERNS THAT DRAW THEMSELVES A mood tracker you never fill in: a calendar of your days, coloured by mood, with week, month and year views. As the weeks add up, the trends appear on their own. ASK YOUR JOURNAL ANYTHING "Why were my bad days bad?" "How have I been feeling about work?" Questions are answered from your own recordings, with the moments they came from — and it says so plainly when your journal has nothing on the subject. REPLAY THE EXACT MOMENT Every quote is checked word for word against your actual recording, so it cannot put words in your mouth. Tap the play button on any moment and the tape starts right there. WEEKLY REVIEWS At the end of each week, month and year, a short written review of what it heard — with a few gentle things worth trying. WHERE YOUR WORDS GO Your audio is uploaded to be transcribed and our copy is deleted once your phone confirms it holds its own. Nobody trains on what you say. Delete everything in one tap, any time. FREE TO START Your first 4 entries are free, no card needed. Then a 7-day free trial of everything. After the trial, Plus renews unless you cancel at least a day before it ends; your journal stays readable forever either way. Plus is billed through your Apple ID and renews automatically until canceled in Settings → Subscriptions.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Shower Talk at every 4 days against BS+'s every 5 weeks. On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
