Brain Dump for ADHD

Read full description

BrainSort is a brain dump app for ADHD minds. Talk for 20 seconds โ€” messy, out of order, half-finished โ€” and watch it sort itself into tasks, events, notes and lists while you speak. Then it turns the task you keep avoiding into a first step small enough to actually start. TALK IT OUT, IT SORTS ITSELF โ€ข Brain dump out loud or by typing โ€” messy is fine โ€ข Live sorting into four lanes: Tasks, Events, Notes and Lists โ€ข Natural dates: "call the dentist on Wednesday" lands on Wednesday โ€ข Groceries and packing items become a list on their own TASK PARALYSIS, BROKEN โ€ข Big task โ†’ concrete first steps โ€ข Still stuck? Break any step down again, into 2-minute micro-steps โ€ข Focus timer: one task on screen, nothing else โ€ข Day close: see what you actually did, not what you didn't โ€ข Streaks that forgive: a freeze saves a missed day PRIVATE BY DEFAULT No account. No sign-up. Your notes stay on your iPhone, and sorting works offline on any iPhone. Where Apple Intelligence is available, the on-device model makes it sharper โ€” the app never depends on it. Optional cloud help: only if you allow it, the text of a tangled dump is sent to a secure server where Claude (by Anthropic) re-sorts it. We don't keep it and it isn't used to train AI. Turn it off anytime in Settings. BRAINSORT PRO Your first brain dump is free. BrainSort Pro unlocks everything: unlimited capture and breakdowns, breaking steps down again, Calendar & Reminders and Visual Modes. Plans: monthly, or annual with a free trial; or a one-time lifetime purchase. Prices are shown in the app in your local currency. If you start a free trial, we remind you 2 days before it ends (with notifications on). Payment will be charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel in your Apple ID's Subscriptions settings. BrainSort is a focus and organization tool, not medical treatment. It does not diagnose or treat ADHD. Terms of Use (EULA): https://brainsort.app/terms Privacy Policy: https://brainsort.app/privacy
