Carousel Widget vs Still dot

Carousel Widget brings a photo slideshow to your Home Screen. Scroll through photos and quickly share your favorites with friends. Your photos stay on your device and are never uploaded or shared. You can select the source album, the auto-scroll setting, and whether to shuffle photos randomly or go in order.

Still dot is a quiet space for thoughts. There is no timeline. No metrics. No categories. No pressure. You simply place a thought — a single dot — into an open field. Each thought lives independently in space. Over time, dots that remain semantically close begin to surface subtle connections. Nothing is forced. Nothing is explained. Still dot explores a different direction of digital design — one that values restraint, negative space, and emergence over engagement. — Key Features • Place short thoughts (up to 140 characters) • Explore a spatial field instead of a feed • Quiet emergence when thoughts stay near • iCloud sync via private CloudKit database • Siri Shortcuts support (“Place a thought”) • Dark / Light / System appearance modes — Still dot does not track you. It does not notify you. It does not measure you. It simply holds what you place. -- Still dot is part of the Still series — a collection of quiet apps exploring different ways to observe thoughts and time. Other apps in the series include Still One, which focuses on daily reflection through a single question.
