About

Brain Dumph

Features
Read full description

Brain Dumph is a quiet second brain for the little things you don't want to keep in your head — a lyric you almost caught, a book someone mentioned, a show worth trying, a game to come back to. It's not a productivity app. There are no streaks, no reminders, no "you have 12 unread things" counters. It's designed for downtime — a calm place to browse when you have five minutes and don't know what to do with them. WHAT YOU CAN SAVE • Shows, podcasts, books, study material, games, apps • Catches for later — quick jots for anything that flew past you • Your own custom categories — recipes, trips, concerts, whatever you like • Lists — group anything the way you want ("Cozy games", "Beach reads") THE DUMP A quiet home for those quick catches — a lyric you didn't quite hear, a phrase you want to look up. Tick them off when you get around to them, or don't. No pressure. BRAIN DUMPH+ A one-time unlock (no subscription) for people who want a little more: • Unlimited categories and lists • Home-screen widget with a rotating pick from your dump • Share Sheet + Shortcuts — save catches from anywhere in iOS • Extra earth-tone palettes • Data export (JSON or CSV) • Photo attachments on any item • iCloud sync (coming in a future update, included with plus) WHAT BRAIN DUMPH DOES NOT DO • No account, no sign-in, no email required • No analytics, tracking, or ads • No cloud upload of your data (it lives on your device) • No notifications, streaks, or badges • No promises about how much you should "process" your backlog Brain Dumph is calm on purpose. It's a notebook, not a to-do list.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Brain Dumph at none against Help's shown. Help's advantage is iOS requirement (15.0 vs 26.5). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
