LinkNote vs Grounded

Ever know someone's name but not who they are? Business cards pile up. Your contacts list runs into the hundreds. Yet you can't recall who introduced you, or the name of their kid you asked about last time. The people keep growing. Your memory doesn't. That gap shows up at the next meeting. The moment you ask something they already told you, they feel it: "They don't remember me." In sales, beauty, coaching, freelancing — any work where people are the work — that one moment decides the next contract or the next visit. Your contacts app stores numbers. It doesn't store relationships. LinkNote draws the people you know and the connections between them as dots and lines. Instead of a list, you see the actual structure of your relationships. Open the map right before a meeting and in 10 seconds you know how everyone connects and what you last talked about. ■ See distance at a glance People are colored by how close they are to you, so you spot who's near and who's drifting. ■ Sort by group Split people into groups and tags — work, clients, hobbies — and show only the connections you need. ■ Record on your own terms Create the fields you need for each person: preferences, family, who introduced them, anything. Notes have no length limit. ■ Log who you met Attach people to a daily entry and keep track of who you met and when. LinkNote also shows who you haven't seen in a while. ■ Check-in reminders Get a nudge at a time you choose about people you've lost touch with. ■ Insights LinkNote reads your map and tells you where connections cluster and where they're thin. ■ Straight from the home screen Long-press the app icon to add a person, write today's entry, or search. ■ Stays on your device People, connections and entries are stored only on this device and never sent to a server. Save a backup file and bring everything to your new phone. ■ Contacts never leave When you add from Contacts, only the people you pick are saved inside the app.

You know the drill. You set a Screen Time limit, you hit it, and ten seconds later you tap "Ignore Limit." The person enforcing your rules is the same person who wants to break them - so the rules never stick. Grounded fixes that with one honest change: someone else holds the key. HOW IT WORKS 1. Pick the apps that eat your time and set a daily limit for each. 2. Hit a limit and the app locks. No ignore button. No "15 more minutes." 3. Need more time? Send a request to your Guardian - a person you trust - with a note (and a well-chosen GIF, if you're begging). 4. They approve or deny from their phone, in real time. If they approve, you choose when to start your extra minutes. Your Guardian can be anyone you'd actually listen to: your partner, best friend, sibling, roommate. They get a full app of their own - your pending requests, your limits at a glance, a history of every change - because accountability is a two-person job. WHY IT WORKS Willpower apps let you hold your own key. Grounded gives it to a real person who can say no. That tiny difference is the whole product: it turns "just this once" into a conversation you have to win. FREE FOR EVERYONE • Unlimited daily limits on any apps or categories • Real blocking at the limit - enforced with Apple's Screen Time technology • Today's screen time, pickups, and notifications, with day-over-day trends • Your streak of days under limit • A heads-up notification before a limit hits WITH GROUNDED PREMIUM • Ask your Guardian for extra time - and approve or deny theirs • Limit changes need your Guardian's sign-off, so the rules actually stick • Full weekly insights: 4-week trends, per-app breakdowns, biggest movers • One subscription covers both of you. Your person pays nothing. PRIVACY FIRST Your Guardian sees your limits and your requests - never your screen, your messages, or what you do inside your apps. We don't sell data. We can't even see which apps you limit. Grounded is for the willing but weak: people who genuinely want their time back and are honest enough to know a timer won't stop them. It isn't surveillance and it isn't a parental-control app - you set your own rules; your person just helps you keep them. Put your phone down. Pick your person. Get grounded. Grounded Premium is an auto-renewing subscription. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in your Apple Account settings.
