Chronicling vs Screen Actions

Keep track of anything you want to keep an eye on, from habits and chores to symptoms. Chronicling shows how long it's been, how often things happen, and which days and times they tend to happen. Some things happen every day, like coffee, a walk or your medication. Others come and go: changing the bed sheets, a headache, calling home. Chronicling handles both, so it all lives in one place. "If you're looking for a flexible approach to tracking events in your life and want to try an app with an excellent, modern design that supports the latest iOS and iPadOS technologies, be sure to give Chronicling a try." - MacStories LOG IT IN A TAP - Add events from your Apple Watch, widgets, Control Center, the Lock Screen, Siri and Shortcuts - Record a number or a note too, such as cups, miles, pages or how you felt - Automate logging with Shortcuts, from workouts to arriving home SEE HOW OFTEN, AND WHEN - Time since last logged, average gap and longest gap for every category - Heatmaps, charts and trends over weeks, months and years - Spot patterns by weekday and time of day - An annual Wrapped to look back at your year GENTLE REMINDERS - Time Since Last Event: get a nudge when it's been too long since you last logged something, from a few hours to a few months - Daily Goal: pick a time of day, and you'll only be notified if you haven't hit that day's goal - Rolling Goal: aim for a number over the last few days or weeks, with a daily check that only notifies you if you're falling short YOUR CATEGORIES, YOUR WAY - Create your own categories with emoji or symbols and your own colors - Choose the period each category's stats cover - Organize them into groups and filter by Focus ON ALL YOUR DEVICES - iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch and Apple Vision Pro - Private iCloud sync between your devices - Export to CSV or a single-file backup at any time - your data is yours If you have questions, suggestions or any other feedback, please contact me at support@chroniclingapp.com.

Screen Actions turns on-screen text into things you can use — Contacts, Calendar events, Reminders or a CSV — fast and entirely on device. Select text in Safari, share from any app, or scan a photo/screenshot and pick an action. No accounts. No servers. No tracking. What you can do • Add to Calendar — Detects dates/times in text and creates an event. Optional location, alert, travel-time alarm, and geofenced arrive/leave notifications. • Create Reminder — Finds tasks/deadlines and makes a reminder in the list you choose. • Extract Contact — Pulls names, emails, phones and addresses into Contacts (you review before saving). • Receipt → CSV — Converts receipt-like text into a clean CSV you can save or share. Ways to use it • Safari Web Extension — Select text on any webpage, tap the extension, and choose an action. • Share Extension — Send text or images from any app into Screen Actions. • Scan (live) — Use the camera to scan text or barcodes/QR and jump straight into the right editor. • Auto Detect — Paste/scan once; the app picks the best action and opens its editor so you can tweak before saving. iOS 26 “Document Mode” (on supported iPhones) • Reads real tables and structured text on device for better results. • Receipts → CSV v2: photos/screenshots become accurate rows & columns. • Batch contacts: a photographed sign-up sheet can become multiple Contacts. Privacy by design • Everything runs on your device using Apple frameworks (Vision OCR/Document Mode, Data Detectors, EventKit, Contacts, MapKit). • We don’t collect personal data, don’t run servers and don’t use third-party analytics. • Permissions are only requested when you use a feature that needs them (Calendars, Reminders, Contacts, Camera, Location for geofencing). Free vs Pro • Free includes daily usage for key features. • Screen Actions Pro (optional in-app purchase) removes daily limits and adds quality-of-life extras such as “Remember last action” in the Safari popup. Prices are shown locally in the app. Why Screen Actions? • Fast: turn messy text into clean, structured data in seconds. • Accurate: on-device intelligence improves detection and table reading. • Private: no accounts, no tracking, no ads. • Flexible: works from Safari, the share sheet, live scan or paste. Requirements • iPhone, iOS 26 or later. Availability of Document Mode features may vary by device/language.
