Proud to be featured as an App Store Editors' Choice App! GoodThing is an app dedicated entirely to recording your happy moments and daily wins. We believe that good news has a magical gravity: those who focus on the beautiful will receive more beauty, and by recording your good news, you attract even more. Happy moments keep us present and make us lose track of time. Yet, compared to bad news, they are far too easily forgotten. That's why writing them down right away is so essential. “We have too many worries simply because we have too good a memory.” But keeping track of the good can pull us out of endless loops of self-doubt, uplifting our happiness and confidence. Whether it’s an ordinary joy like eating your favorite food, or a major highlight like winning an award or getting a promotion, every joy deserves to be captured and relived. Wise and gentle souls always notice those shining days, using life’s beauty and kindness to light a warm bonfire that drives away the cold. Features of GoodThing: Pure & Lightweight: This is a tiny, peaceful garden strictly for your good news. No work documents, no to-do lists, and no complex mind maps—just pure joy. Simple & Fast: Whether you’re writing or reading, it takes barely 3 seconds. Capture the exact moment with one tap, so you never let a happy second slip away. Beautifully Designed: We hand-crafted a fresh, elegant, and simple interface to give you the motivation to keep journaling. May you gather joy every day. Treasure your life's beautiful memories here in GoodThing. Life needs good things. Let's make them happen together. Every user of GoodThing is a dear friend to us. If you’d like to join our community to share your daily wins and find more friends, you can find us on Weibo, Xiaohongshu (RED), Jike, and Douban. Find us everywhere at @好事发生App.

About

Authtify

Features
Read full description

Authtify is an identity validator that can receive verification requests online and verify whether they are approved or rejected. Use Authtify authentication, send verification requests online, verify in real time, and protect the security of your account data information. Based on OTP technology, when users perform authentication, Authtify authentication is triggered in a third-party application. After logging into Authtify with an account and password, real-time online authentication requests are initiated. Authtify users can directly click pass or reject, enter the set PIN code, and complete Authtify authentication. Authtify validation supports biological validation methods to pass validation. Users can enable biometric authentication in the account and security settings of the Authtify application. When receiving real-time authentication requests, Authtify users can authenticate through the biometric authentication method set by the device, recognize through Face ID and Touch ID, and ensure that only you have access to the application, ensuring your data privacy and operational security. Authtify supports blacklisting verification applications and application verification accounts. After blacklisting, applications will be placed on a blacklist, and accounts under subsequent applications will not be allowed to undergo Authtify verification. Once the blacklisting is lifted, verification can resume normal use. A simple and intuitive interface makes it easy for users to use, and provides home page shortcut application customization settings, making it convenient for users to operate quickly.
