When your head is full, trying to organize first is how you end up writing nothing. Dumpie flips the order. Throw everything in, then let the AI sort it. Note: the app's interface is in Korean. --- ◆ 1. Just throw your thoughts in Type whatever surfaces and it drops as a block onto the pile. No categories, no due dates, no tags — not yet. The pile is your head, exactly as it is right now. --- ◆ 2. Shake, and the AI sorts Shake your phone, or press and hold the pile — 3 · 2 · 1 and the sorter runs. Every block is split across the Eisenhower matrix in a single pass: Urgent + important · Important, not urgent · Urgent, not important · Later Each block also picks up a life area: career, health, relationships, growth, finance, or other. --- ◆ 3. Disagree? Drag it The AI gets things wrong. Drag a chip to another quadrant and it moves. Drop a chip onto another to group them. Tap to edit the text. Your corrections are remembered — the next sort lands closer to your judgment. --- ◆ 4. Just three, for today Plenty of apps show you your whole list. Dumpie draws the three you'll actually finish today. It tells you why each one was picked, and if you check something off by mistake you have five seconds to undo it. --- ◆ 5. A nightly brain-cleanup report Blocks cleared, your streak, score and title. Not how much you did — how much you emptied. --- ◆ Features • Instant capture that never waits on the network • One-shake AI sorting across the whole pile at once • Six life areas: career, health, relationships, growth, finance, other • Drag to re-sort, drop to group, tap to edit • Today's three, with the reason each was drawn • Five-second undo on completion • Review: blocks cleared, streaks, score and title • iOS widget showing today's three • Offline-first — saved on device, synced later • Sign in with Apple or Google --- ◆ Made for you if • Every to-do app turns into an organizing chore before you write anything • Your head is full but you cannot tell what is actually urgent • Your list keeps growing while today stays undecided • Finishing the checklist still leaves you with nothing --- ◆ Privacy • What you type is saved on your device first • Account data is stored securely in Firebase • We do not sell your data to third parties --- Questions and feedback: macrothinkmicrodesign0@gmail.com
