HEADSPACE is iOS's coolest 3D outliner and mind-mapping app! Do your list-making and mind-mapping in 3D space with the *original* Headspace. *** PLEASE NOTE: This NOT the meditation app! *** (There is another app called "Headspace: Guided Meditation and Mindfulness" and this is NOT that app!) "Love the program. Favorite app. Useful and looks great. " "The implementation is beautiful! In my opinion, Headspace is becoming one of the best apps in the store." "I bought Headspace last night on a whim - been fooling around with mindmapping apps lately. This is a little piece of brilliance, you know that, right? " "This app could not just be a mindmapping program, It has the capability to become a new kind of U.I. That in my opinion that improved over apples U.I." Hey, man. Get all up inside your own head with HEADSPACE LITE, the 'lite' version of Flat Black Films' revolutionary 3D mind-mapping application for iphone! Big ideas, great thoughts, even boring to-do lists are more fun when they're in THREE DIMENSIONS. Create groups of related thoughts and position them in space. Rotate, pan, and zoom your view with finger gestures. Go all David Lynch and get DEEP with yourself. Create hierarchical lists of items -- children of children of children -- and doubletap to 'stack' them in space. Change their color and translucency. Connect related items with 'link' lines. It's heavy. This is the free version of the full app "Headspace". This version limits you to one "space", and you cannot export/import files. Headspace Lite shares these cool features with the full version: - pan view with one finger - hold finger to slowly zoom in towards touch point - add links and travel between them using the 'link balls' - optional detailed notes for each item (text/URL/photo) - search function (items, notes, and files) - sample file - checkboxes - copy and paste items - customize colors and rearrange palette - drag group name to move group - triple-tap to 'send' an item to another group - optionally disable accelerometer tilt - tap empty space to pre-specify new group placement - YouTube video demonstration - support for European characters like umlauts and the like If you end up liking it, please get the full version!

Cribly is an agent, not another app full of forms. Every home inventory app hands you the same thing: empty fields, dropdowns, and a spreadsheet with better fonts. Nobody finishes them. Cribly starts from the opposite idea — you shouldn't be doing the data entry at all. You capture; your agent catalogs. NO FORMS. EVER. Snap a photo of anything — an appliance, a receipt, a manual, a paint can. Cribly's AI works out what it is, extracts the details, and files it in the right place. Model numbers, purchase dates, prices, warranty periods: read from the photo, not typed by you. A LIVING INVENTORY, BUILT FOR YOU Your home becomes an organized, searchable registry — rooms, appliances, systems, documents, and the receipts that prove it all. It stays current because adding to it costs you nothing more than pointing your camera. ASK YOUR HOME ANYTHING "When did we buy the dishwasher?" "Where's the manual for the furnace?" "What paint is in the bedroom?" Chat with Cribly by text or voice and get answers from your home's own records — because your agent has been keeping track all along. MAINTENANCE THAT MINDS ITSELF Cribly knows what's in your home, so it knows what needs care. Filter changes, servicing, seasonal upkeep — your agent suggests the tasks and reminds you at the right time. No recurring-reminder setup required. CAPTURE FROM ANYWHERE Forward a receipt by email. Send a photo over WhatsApp. Use the app or the web. However a document reaches you, it can reach your agent — and it gets filed the same way: automatically. FOR THE WHOLE HOUSEHOLD Invite family members to your home. Everyone can add with a snap, everyone can ask, and the answers come from one shared source of truth. WORKS WITH THE AI YOU ALREADY USE Cribly connects to assistants like Claude and ChatGPT, so you can ask about your home — or add to it — right from the AI tools you already talk to every day.
