For brains that won't quit. Minddump is the brain dump app built for ADHD and other busy minds. The moment your head is too full to think โ when thoughts race, loop, or vanish before you catch them โ open Minddump and speak or type whatever's there. AI listens back honestly. Patterns surface over time. You don't have to journal. You don't have to "honor your journey." You just have to get it out of your head. SOUND FAMILIAR? โข "I had a great idea 10 seconds ago and it's gone" โข "I can't sleep because my brain won't stop" โข "I keep meaning to write this down but never do" โข "I don't have time for a journal app that wants three paragraphs" WHAT MINDDUMP DOES โข Brain dump in 10 seconds โ voice or text, no setup, no prompts โข Talk it out โ real-time voice conversations with AI when you need to think out loud โข Patterns over time โ spot what's looping, draining, or lifting (mood, time, triggers) โข Honest AI reflections โ not therapy-speak, not "sit with the feeling" โข Locked tight โ biometric lock, end-to-end encryption, never sold BUILT FOR ADHD BRAINS - Voice-first capture for when typing feels like a chore - 2-minute voice cap on free โ calibrated to attention bursts - Streak grid for the dopamine, no shame for missed days - Daily nudge that asks "what's running through your head?" โ not "did you reflect on your blessings" - Multilingual: English, Spanish, French, Arabic WHAT IT'S NOT Minddump is not a medical, therapy, or diagnostic app. It does not treat or diagnose ADHD and does not replace a clinician.

Pro unlocks unlimited voice length, MindStream voice conversations (Calm Voice: 45 min/week with Gemini; Pro Voice: $3 for 10 min with OpenAI), and deeper pattern analytics.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Tether at every 4 days against Minddump's every 4 weeks. Minddump's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 18). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
