Too many ideas. No idea where to start. Project Jar is for people whose problem was never coming up with things to make - it's picking one. Drop every idea into the jar, and when you finally have a free evening, let the jar decide. CAPTURE IT BEFORE IT'S GONE • Add an idea in seconds - type it, or hold the mic and just talk • Tag it: music, app, video, writing, or categories you invent • Attach photos and reference shots • Search everything you've ever thrown in LET FATE PICK • Tap spin and watch your Spark pull a slip out of the jar • Seven animated draw scenes to pick from • Exclude the categories you're not in the mood for today • The decision is made. Go make something. ONE IDEA, ONE PAGE • Every idea opens as a document - notes, headings, bullets, photos and to-dos in one flow • Check things off as you go • Turn an idea into a real project the moment it's ready A COMPANION THAT NEVER GUILT-TRIPS YOU • Your Spark lives in a little room and reacts to what you make • Disappear for a week? It gets more encouraging, not less. This is the opposite of a guilt app. • Unlock new looks, posters and postcards the more you create • After 30 quiet days it moves out - and you can always bring it home TRACK SHOWING UP, NOT OUTPUT • A GitHub-style activity grid across every project you touch • Tap any day to see exactly what you did • Streaks that celebrate and never scold YOURS, AND ONLY YOURS • No account, no sign-up, no ads, no tracking • Everything lives on your iPhone • Optional daily reminder, entirely local OPTIONAL AI Voice capture works the moment you install it, using Apple's built-in speech recognition - free, no setup, nothing to configure. If you want Whisper-grade transcription plus automatic parsing of a rambling voice note into a clean, tagged idea, there are two ways to get it: 1. Bring your own keys — paste your OpenAI and Anthropic API keys in Settings. Free in the app; you pay your provider directly. 2. Subscribe to ProjectJar AI — no keys, no setup. ProjectJar AI · $1.99 per month, auto-renewing Whisper transcription and smart idea parsing with nothing to configure. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless it is cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours of the period ending. Manage or cancel anytime in your Apple Account settings.
