Speak your mind. Slate keeps it. Nothing leaves the phone. Slate is a private voice journal. Press record and say what's on your mind. The transcript is made on your phone, filler out, paragraphs in, your words untouched underneath. Every entry gets a title, the sentence that says what happened, and the line that mattered, in your own words. Tags for what it was about, who was in it, and where you were. Tap a tag and every entry that carries it lines up. Search your journal by word, person or place. It is all here and it is all yours. On Sunday the week comes back to you. What repeated, what shifted, in your own words. And when the journal knows something, it says so plainly: the first time you mention someone in weeks, or how often a thing has come up this month. All on device. It never leaves the phone. There is no server, no account, no analytics, no network calls. The privacy label reads "Data Not Collected" because there is nothing to collect. Turn on airplane mode; everything still works. It always will. If you want a backup, optional encrypted iCloud backup is there in Settings. Off until you say so, private to your own account either way. No streaks. No scores. No chatbot. A private place to think. Slate is a subscription, monthly or yearly, after a one month free trial. A one-time lifetime purchase is also available. Prices are shown in the app before you pay. Terms: https://hsla0001.com/terms/slate Privacy: https://hsla0001.com/privacy/slate
