About

MindCard

Read full description

Before a meeting you know you can handle. After a conversation that went badly. At 1 AM, when one thought keeps coming back. MindCard gives you a card for those moments, and reading it takes about ten seconds. Each card has three lines: a short message, one question to ask yourself, and a gentler way to see the same thing. Read it, answer in your head or type a quick note, then close the app. INSIDE EACH CARD - 50 reset cards, each tagged by theme: self-worth, anxiety, comparison, failure, relationships, motivation, work, self-care and being present - An optional note under "Ask yourself", up to 200 characters - A heart on every card to save the ones that landed, collected in the Saved tab - A History tab with every card you drew and the notes you left - Share a card as an image. Your note is left out of the picture - A dark, quiet design and light haptics when you draw - Five languages: English, Korean, Japanese, Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese, chosen by your phone PACED ON PURPOSE You can draw 3 cards in each 6-hour window. After that the app shows when it resets and suggests staying with the card you have. There are no streaks, no badges and no reminder notifications. ADS, AND WHAT STAYS ON YOUR PHONE MindCard is free. It shows one small banner ad at the bottom of the History tab and nowhere else. Where the law requires it, such as the EEA and the UK, a consent form asks about ads before any ad loads. On iPhone, the system tracking prompt appears only if that step allows it. Say no to either and nothing in MindCard gets locked. There is no account. Your notes, saved cards and history are stored on your phone, and MindCard runs no server that receives them. The only network traffic the app starts itself is the ad request. WHAT MINDCARD IS NOT MindCard is a reflection tool for everyday ups and downs. It is not medical advice or treatment, and it is not a substitute for professional help. If you are in crisis, contact local emergency services or a qualified professional. Questions or feedback: contact+mindcard@peppertree.so
