We built Sia because we needed it ourselves. For years, we both thought something was wrong with us. Crowded places drained us. Other people's moods hit like waves. We needed hours alone just to feel like ourselves again. Sound familiar? Then we learned about high sensitivity, a trait shared by about one in five people. Our nervous systems take in more and process it more deeply. It isn't a flaw. It's how we're made. But every app we tried felt wrong. Generic meditation, advice that ignored how differently we work. We don't just need to "calm down". We need help made for nervous systems like ours. So we built Sia. ONE TAP WHEN IT'S TOO MUCH Open Sia and tap Breathe. No sign-up, no questions first. A slow breath, one calm step at a time, and words that wait until you've read them. SITUATIONS FROM REAL LIFE Crowded places, criticism, an open-plan office, family gatherings, phone calls, too much news, noisy neighbours. Each situation in its own words, with three doors: β€’ Calm now, for when it's already too much. Always free. β€’ Prepare, for when you see it coming. β€’ Look back, for once it's over: what set it off, and what helped. SIA WAITS FOR YOU Nothing is rushed. Questions stay until you answer. Choose something to try, and Sia waits while you do it. At the end, one question: what helped? YOUR MAP OF WHAT HELPS Two taps after a calm moment, and your own map grows: what gets to you, and what helps you. Built from your real moments, not generic advice. READY FOR WHAT'S COMING Name a hard moment ahead, like a meeting or a family visit, and Sia gets you ready beforehand. UNDERSTAND YOURSELF A short story explains high sensitivity. A sensitivity profile shows where it shows up for you: senses, people, feelings. An eight-week program goes deeper, one short session a week. Week 1 is free. MADE FOR SENSITIVE EYES The light follows the day: softer in the evening, darker at night, never glaring. Reduced motion and larger text are respected. YOUR PRIVACY What you note, track and feel stays on your phone. No account is needed. Anonymous usage statistics and ad measurement only with your yes, and you can change that anytime. Moving to a new phone? Save an encrypted copy of your data and keep it where you like. SIA PLUS Everything that helps in the moment stays free, always. Sia Plus adds Prepare and Look back for every situation and weeks 2 to 8 of the program. Your first Prepare and first Look back are on us. This app is for you if you've been called "too sensitive" your whole life. If you feel things deeply and need more downtime than others. If loud places, strong emotions and busy days hit you harder. If you're tired of wellness advice that doesn't get it. Sia gets it. Because we get it. Welcome home.

Read full description

AuDHD Loop is a private, on-device journal for adults who want a calmer way to notice sensory load, energy, stims, and task momentum. CHECK CAPACITY, THEN START Record how much energy and focus you have. Choose an editable first action and begin a 10, 25, or 50-minute supported focus sessionβ€”no camera, account, or other person required. LOG WITHOUT SHAME Capture stims, sensory moments, energy, and what helped. Organize tasks by the kind of capacity they need instead of forcing a one-size-fits-all list. SEE TRANSPARENT OBSERVATIONS AuDHD Loop turns enough of your own check-ins into plain-language observations with the counts behind them. It does not score, diagnose, or claim that one event caused another. FREE TO USE The core loop stays free, including one real observation when enough logs exist and three supported focus sessions each week. AUDHD LOOP PRO Pro adds: β€’ All available observations β€’ Unlimited supported focus sessions β€’ Custom support strategies β€’ Weekly reflection export as CSV Your journal stays on this device until you delete it. AuDHD Loop has no account, ads, tracking, analytics, AI, or developer cloud upload. Apple processes purchases through StoreKit. AuDHD Loop is a personal wellness and journaling tool. It is not a diagnostic device, treatment plan, crisis service, or medical record. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
