Thought Path is an inbox to quickly capture all your thoughts, ideas, and tasks. Easily see the output of your brain over time, on a map, or in search results. You can integrate Thought Path with Shortcuts, to automate capturing and reviewing your thoughts. Though Path is free to use indefinitely, but you will need to review and archive all your thoughts once you reach a cap of 15. Pro users can remove this limit with a subscription fee. This app is made by a sole indie developer, and that means I care about user experience, not collecting user data. All your thoughts and ideas are saved on device and synced over iCloud - nothing is ever sent anywhere else for any reason.

Move what you need between iPhone, iPad and Mac without a chat with yourself. Share a link from Safari, pick a photo, scan a document, capture your clipboard or write a note. Choose a device and flick. On your Mac, a card waits beneath the notch; on iPhone and iPad, it lands in your deck. Open it, copy it, save it or mark it Done. Your Stash keeps things within reach. Flickover uses a direct connection when your devices can reach each other and iCloud when they cannot. Your devices use your iCloud account for continuity; pairing lets you connect another device. Delivery time depends on the connection, content and whether the other device is available. Ask your iPhone from your Mac for a photo, a scan, the clipboard or a file. Choose Later for tonight, tomorrow morning or a time you pick. Set per-kind actions for what happens when something lands. Flickover Premium covers iPhone, iPad and Mac with one subscription. Eligible customers can start a 14-day full-feature free trial. Monthly and annual plans are available; your local price and trial eligibility appear before you confirm. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled. Manage or cancel an App Store subscription in your Apple Account subscription settings. An active trial or subscription is required for new transfers in every direction, new requests to another device, timed Later and automation.

Previews can contact the linked service, and some speech features may use Apple services. See the privacy policy for the details of iCloud, previews, purchases and support.
