Dream Journal
Read full descriptionHide full description
A dream fades in two minutes. Tierce exists for those two minutes. THE ALARM PICKS THE MOMENT From the phone’s own sleep data, Tierce learns where your REM sleep ends and wakes you at the edge of it rather than through the middle — the moment the dream is still whole enough to say out loud. You give a range; it picks the minute. YOU SAY IT OUT LOUD One tap on the notification and you talk, eyes still shut. Nothing to unlock, nothing to type, no form to fill in. Tap any word to fix it and carry on: recording resumes from your cursor and overwrites nothing. NOTHING IS DROPPED The transcript keeps your own words. Around them Tierce notes the weather, the season, the moon, whether you were home or away — the details you would never think to write at 6am. THEN ASK WHAT IT MEANS Interpretation runs on the phone. No account, nothing uploaded, and it always ends in a question back to you: answer it and the reading goes deeper. FROM THE SECOND WEEK, YOUR NIGHTS TALK The people who return, the weather that matters, the nights that rhyme. And when a pattern does not hold up statistically, Tierce keeps it to itself — silence beats noise dressed as a finding. IT STAYS HERE Recordings, transcripts and readings live on this phone, and in your own iCloud if you turn on backup — sealed with a passphrase only you know. There is no server holding your dreams because there is no server. No account, no ads, no tracking, no streak to keep. Tierce requires a subscription. What it costs, and any free trial, is shown in the app before anything is bought. Six languages: English, Italian, Spanish, German, French, Portuguese.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Empty Fasting at none against Dream Journal's 3. Empty Fasting also leads on iOS requirement (17.0 vs 26.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
