A private, structured reflection system. Nothing leaves the device unless you bring your own key. Reflection Space turns the questions you choose into patterns you can trust. Build a template from your own prompts, put a 1–5 scale or a yes/no on the answers that matter, and reflect on a schedule that fits your life. Because every answer is to a question you chose, the patterns are about you — not about journaling in general. YOUR QUESTIONS, YOUR STRUCTURE Start from a ready-made template or write your own, question by question. Each template is an ordered set of prompts with a metric on any of them, so a weekly review, an evening check-in, or a morning intention becomes something you can actually compare over time. A RHYTHM THAT FITS YOUR LIFE Give every template its own schedule — daily, certain weekdays, monthly, quarterly, or yearly — with a reminder at the time of day you want it. A weekly review on Sunday evening, a quarterly check-in, an annual review: a calm home screen shows what is next and how your week has been. WRITE IT, SAY IT, OR PICTURE IT Answer one question at a time. Write in a clean editor, add photos straight into the text, or record a voice memo with transcription. Some thoughts don't fit a template, so free writing is always one tap away. PATTERNS YOU CAN TRUST Our Patterns engine correlates the metrics you defined to show what connects. Does a short night show up in your mood the next day? Are you more grateful on weekends? Trends, charts, and word clouds from your writing, explained in plain language and never oversold. CONSISTENCY WITHOUT GUILT Milestones and streaks that meet you on your own schedule. Every saved reflection ends with a quiet summary of what you captured. Encouragement, never pressure. PRIVATE BY ARCHITECTURE No first-party servers, no accounts, no analytics. Syncs via your personal iCloud. Back up in full and export your data anytime, always whole. Share a reflection or a template only when you decide to — a shared template link carries your questions, never your answers. INSIGHT ON YOUR OWN TERMS Optional summaries can run with on-device Apple Intelligence. Bring your own key: OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, Grok — and get one thoughtful follow-up question while you write. Your key stays in your Keychain. We never train models on your entries. REFLECTION SPACE PRO Reflection Space works without an account or payment, with one active template. Pro unlocks unlimited templates and the optional insight features — as a subscription or a one-time lifetime unlock. MADE FOR People who reflect on purpose: weekly and monthly reviewers, structured check-in keepers, and anyone who wants the why behind their numbers. Make space to reflect. Grow a little every day.

Describe an app for someone, a watering reminder for your mom, a chore chart for the kids, a shift log for your crew, and AI builds it in minutes, ready to send them with a link. It arrives on the phone: it works offline, and its timers go off even when the phone is locked. Or build one your whole household uses together, with shared lists that update live for everyone. Or one just for you. HOW IT WORKS • Tell the assistant what you need, by typing or by talking. It asks a few clarifying questions, then designs and builds your app (a "MyApp") while you watch its progress. • Preview the result live and keep refining by conversation: "add a chart," "make the theme green," "sort by date." You can also tap an element in the preview to tell the assistant exactly what to change. • Your finished apps live on your dashboard, ready to open and use any time — no code, no templates, nothing to configure by hand. WHAT YOUR APPS CAN DO • Store your data in tables and display it as lists, grids, forms, charts, or custom interactive views • Take photos with your camera • Take in a file, link or note you share from another app — a text note, a recipe page, a contact card • Start a call, text, email or Maps search with the details filled in — you always decide whether to send • Work offline once built — your data is saved on your device and synced to your account • Be shared with other MyApp Studio users as a copy, or used together in a group MyApp whose shared lists update live for everyone you invite SANDBOXED BY DESIGN Every MyApp is built from standard web technology (HTML, CSS and JavaScript) and runs inside MyApp Studio, in a secure sandbox isolated from the rest of your phone. A MyApp sees only what you enter or choose to share into it, and reaches the camera, notifications and other device features only through the standard iOS prompts and screens. PRIVACY FIRST • Data tables the AI identifies as personal — journals, health logs, and similar — are end-to-end encrypted on your device before they ever leave it. What they hold is stored only as ciphertext; without your device's key or your passphrase, no one (including us) can read it. The one exception is a value you hand to an AI lookup as you enter it, which is sent to the AI to get its answer. • The AI service that builds your MyApps is not permitted to train on your content — the terms we use it under prohibit it. We do look at what people ask the assistant to build, so we can keep making it better at building things; that improves our own instructions to the AI, and never trains an AI model on what you create. • No ads, no third-party analytics or tracking SDKs, and your data is never sold. VOICE, IF YOU WANT IT Voice mode is optional: the microphone is never activated until you explicitly choose "Use Microphone," and you can always type instead. Speech is transcribed by your device's speech recognition service; raw audio is never uploaded to our servers. FREE TO START Your account includes free apps, and Plan & Usage shows how many you have used. Apps are free to use; the free allowance is for building. An optional MyApp Studio Plus subscription adds more apps each month. It renews automatically until you cancel it in your Apple ID's subscription settings. ACCOUNT & SYNC Sign in with Apple or Google (an account is required — your apps and their data are tied to it and synced across your devices). An internet connection is required to create or edit apps, since generation runs on our backend AI service. Using an already-built app works offline.
