Your head was never meant to be a filing cabinet. Say one messy thought. Aida turns it into notes, reminders, tasks, ideas and memories, then brings back what matters when you need it. No folders. No tags. No setup. Just type or speak naturally. Say it once “Dentist Tuesday at 4, pick up bread, gift idea for Mum, and I’m stressed about work.” Aida separates it into an appointment, a shopping task, a gift idea and a journal entry. Each one is automatically organized in the right place. Your day, already arranged - See routines, reminders and tasks when they matter. - Aida can give you a calm daily brief with what is scheduled, what needs attention and anything worth remembering. No noisy dashboard and no pressure to complete everything. Ask your memory anything - “What shoe size does Emil need?” - “What was Mum’s birthday gift idea?” - “When is my next doctor appointment?” Aida answers using what you previously saved and shows the original note it came from. Think freely - Brainstorm ideas with Aida, ask follow-up questions and save only the useful parts. - Plans, gift ideas, study notes and decisions can become organized memories without copying and pasting them into another app. Everything, already sorted - Aida automatically organizes your notes into categories such as Health, Family, Shopping, Work, Home and Journal. - Recurring reminders return when they should. Important information can resurface when it becomes relevant again. Made for people carrying too much in their heads - Aida is for parents managing family details, people collecting hundreds of notes-to-self, small business owners juggling unfinished thoughts, and anyone who has written something down only to never find it again. Most apps give you somewhere to put things. Aida takes them off your mind. Available on iPhone and iPad. Voice and text capture. Available in 13 languages. Aida holds the details, so your head can stay light.

WhereTimeGoes helps you build a clear accounting of your day without juggling alarms, spreadsheets, and copy-paste reports. Set the time range you want to track, then get regular notifications (e.g. every 30 minutes) asking what happened in each interval. Entries are free-form, so you can type simple notes like "work", "gym, steam room", "driving to grocery store", or "planning, 20 min email". The app stores everything locally and turns your entries into a spreadsheet-style timeline you can edit later. Reports help you see the patterns behind the raw log. Detailed reports are calculated directly from your entries. Medium and broad reports can group your activities, then score categories against your goal so you can see what helped, what hurt, and what to reduce first. Key features: - Interval notifications for free-form time logging - Editable spreadsheet-style daily timeline - Sleep logging and batch cell editing - Daily, weekly, and monthly report views - Goal-weighted categories with positive and negative impact scores - Pie charts and heat maps - CSV export for analysis in Numbers, Excel, or Google Sheets - Local-first storage on your device - User-provided OpenAI API key stored in Keychain for report generation WhereTimeGoes is for people who want a low-friction way to understand their time, notice waste, and make better decisions tomorrow.
