Capture Your Thoughts vs GRDN

Capture Your Thoughts turns speech into text wherever you can use a custom keyboard. Use the Capture keyboard in Messages, Mail, Notes, Safari, and other apps to dictate without losing your place. Choose Transcribe to keep the spoken language, or Translate to English for supported speech. VOICE TO TEXT, ANYWHERE • Start and stop a capture from the custom keyboard • Insert the finished transcript at the cursor exactly once • Choose Original, Rewrite, Email, List, Note, or one of your own rewrite styles PRIVATE, ON-DEVICE PROCESSING • Whisper transcribes or translates speech on your iPhone • Temporary audio is deleted after processing • No account is required • Internet is needed to download your selected speech model before first use MAKE EACH CAPTURE USEFUL • Optional Apple Intelligence rewrite styles clean up wording or format the result on supported devices • Quick Notes keep captured ideas organized and searchable • A personal dictionary preserves the spelling of names and specialized terms • The untouched original transcript remains available when a rewrite is applied iOS requires the containing app to handle microphone recording, so tapping the keyboard microphone briefly opens Capture. Return to the previous app while recording, stop from the keyboard, and the completed text is inserted into the active field.

Real focus needs real blocking. GRDN locks the apps that steal your attention — for a session or all day — and gives the hours back to your projects: focus sessions, tasks, tracked time, and friends who cheer you on. The mindful part is real, too. When you need back into a blocked app, GRDN doesn't fight you: breathe through a short countdown, write one thing you're grateful for, and get ten honest minutes. Then it locks again. — BLOCK THE NOISE — • Real app blocking, not reminders: Instagram, TikTok, X stay locked • Session blocking while you focus, or scheduled all-day blocking • The Gate Pause: need back in? Breathe through a short countdown, write one gratitude, and get 10 honest minutes. Then it re-locks automatically. — DO THE WORK — • Pomodoro focus timer with lock-screen Live Activities — sessions that also hard-block your apps • Tasks and projects: priorities, recurring tasks, today planning, and two-way Google Calendar sync • Time tracking built for independent workers: focus sessions land on projects automatically — tracked, billable, exportable to CSV • Friends see your focus sessions and cheer the streak • Your garden grows as you focus — every session levels it up — WHY ONE APP? — Blockers win you the hour, then abandon it. To-do apps organize the hour, but can't protect it. GRDN is the only app that does both: every blocked distraction becomes an hour you can see — planned, timed, tracked, and witnessed. — FREE TIER — Pomodoro timer, tasks, projects, and basic time tracking. Free forever. No card required. — PREMIUM — Real app blocking, the Gate Pause, scheduled all-day blocking, friends and social, lock-screen Live Activities, Google Calendar sync, extended insights and history. $3.99/month or $34.99/year with a 30-day free trial. Cancel anytime in Settings. Opal charges $99/year for similar Screen Time blocking — GRDN is one-third the price. — FOR PEOPLE WHO'VE TRIED EVERYTHING — If you've installed Forest, Freedom, Opal, Todoist, or Toggl and still can't focus, GRDN is built for you. Structure will take you where willpower can't. Terms of Use: https://www.irons.design/grdn Privacy Policy: https://www.irons.design/grdn
