AnonyMaps started with a practical problem: finding a meeting in an unfamiliar city means combing through intergroup websites, then trying to work out where those street names actually are in relation to your hotel or the office you're visiting. AnonyMaps puts them on a map instead. Choose a fellowship, choose a day, and meetings near you appear. Tap any marker to see everything at that location โ€” names, days and times โ€” so you can pick the one that fits. BUILT TO KNOW NOTHING ABOUT YOU No account. No sign-up. No email or phone number. Your location is used on your device to sort meetings by distance and is never sent to us. Requests reach our database through a proxy that strips your IP address first, so neither we nor our database provider ever receives it. There are no trackers, no analytics, and no advertising โ€” there is nothing to sell, because we do not collect it. WHAT IT DOES โ€ข Meetings from AA, NA and other fellowships, worldwide โ€ข Filter by day, fellowship, distance, time of day, format and accessibility โ€ข Trip planner โ€” meetings near your arrival and departure airports, plus online meetings for the flight itself โ€ข Save trips on your phone, never uploaded โ€ข Add a meeting to your calendar โ€ข Directions hand off to your own maps app โ€ข Twelve languages SAFETY AnonyMaps locks itself while the device is moving above 5 mph and unlocks on its own once you stop. There is no way to dismiss it while you are still travelling. That check reads your speed from your device's location, so location access is required โ€” without it the lock cannot work. Meeting information comes from local service bodies and can change. Confirm before you travel any distance. AnonyMaps is free. There are no subscriptions, no in-app purchases, and no payments of any kind. Privacy Policy: https://privacy.anonymaps.org Terms of Use: https://terms.anonymaps.org

VoiceJournal turns your thoughts into a meaningful record โ€” just speak, and your journal writes itself. Journaling is one of the most effective tools for emotional clarity and self-awareness, but typing takes effort. VoiceJournal removes that barrier. Tap record, speak freely, and your entry is captured with a title, mood tag, transcript, and duration โ€” all organized automatically. KEY FEATURES - One-tap recording with automatic speech transcription - Eight mood categories (Happy, Calm, Sad, Anxious, Angry, Grateful, Excited, Tired) to color-code every entry - Daily rotating prompts to spark reflection when you don't know where to start - Timeline view grouped by day, with search across all entries and tags - Calendar view to see which days you've journaled at a glance - Stats screen with mood distribution charts, a 30-day mood trend, and streak tracking - Current and longest streak counters to build a consistent habit - Tags for organizing entries by theme or topic - Context-menu delete to keep your journal clean VoiceJournal is designed around speed and honesty. There's no pressure to write โ€” just speak for as little or as long as you need. Over time, the mood charts and streaks reveal patterns you might not notice day to day. Your data stays on your device. No account required.
