FlowKeep vs CuePane

Side projects don't die in a day. They die slowly, one forgotten week at a time. You lose context, lose momentum, and before you know it, that thing you were excited about is buried under life. FlowKeep fixes that. FlowKeep is a project continuity app built for creative people with limited time. It uses a smart queue to surface your projects before they go stale, a weekly planner to map out your time, and streak tracking to keep you honest, all while preserving the context you need to jump right back in. HOW IT WORKS Every project has a freshness threshold, a window of time (1 to 30 days) before it starts to go stale. As projects approach that window, they rise in your queue. Open the app, and you immediately know what needs your attention today, or check the Planner to see your entire week at a glance. KEY FEATURES Smart Queue Your projects are automatically sorted by urgency. Sections like "Catch Up," "Touch Today," "This Week," and "On Track" tell you exactly where things stand at a glance. A "Starting Soon" section previews upcoming projects with future start dates. A capacity alert warns you if you're overcommitted. 7-Day Planner See your entire week laid out with an expandable day-by-day view. Each day shows which projects are due, starting, or overdue, with color-coded status chips and time estimates. A summary header shows total projects, total time commitment, and your busiest day. Heavy days that exceed your capacity are flagged automatically so you can plan around them. Context Preservation Each project stores your last thought, your next action, notes, and links. When you come back to a project after days away, you reload your context instantly. No more "where was I?" Streaks & Visual Tracking A 90-day check-in grid for every project lets you see your consistency. The grid adapts to each project's threshold. Daily projects show daily cells, weekly projects show weekly windows. A consistency percentage shows how reliably you touch each project. Hit milestones at 7, 30, and 90 days and earn streak badges. Celebrate wins. No shame for breaks. Learning / Doing Balance Tag each project as "learning" or "doing" and set a target ratio. FlowKeep helps you maintain balance between building skills and shipping things. The queue automatically boosts underrepresented project types. Widgets & Siri Shortcuts Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets show your queue at a glance. Mark a project as touched right from a widget. Six Siri Shortcuts let you check your queue, get top projects, add projects, mark as touched, open a project, or check your streak, all hands-free. Templates & Sharing Start new projects from 30+ curated templates across 6 categories. Save any project as your own template. Share templates with friends via QR codes and links. Accountability Buddy (optional) Invite one partner to see your project titles and send each other gentle nudges to keep going. It's lightweight encouragement. No feeds, no followers, no pressure. iCloud Sync Your data syncs seamlessly across your iPhone and iPad through iCloud. No account to create. It just works. Privacy First No tracking. No analytics sent anywhere. No account required. Your data stays on your device and in your own iCloud. Period. WHO IT'S FOR - Developers with side projects piling up - Creators juggling learning and building - Hobbyists who want to stay consistent - Anyone who's ever said "I should get back to that" FlowKeep doesn't replace your task manager. It sits alongside it, focused on one thing: making sure the projects you care about never quietly die.

CuePane turns your script into a full-screen scrolling cue so you can speak to the camera naturally. Every feature is available — nothing is locked. VOICE-FOLLOW SCROLLING Turn on voice follow and CuePane listens while you speak: pause and it waits, skip a line and it catches up, stumble on a word and it stays on track. Speech recognition runs on your device and your voice is never uploaded. Chinese, Japanese and English are supported, or let CuePane detect the language for you. RECORD WHILE READING Shoot with the front camera while your script scrolls right under the lens, keeping your eyes close to the camera. The cue text floats above the preview and is never recorded into the video — no burned-in text, no watermark. Finished takes go straight to your photo library. FLOATING CUE WINDOW Put your script into a picture-in-picture window that floats above your camera, streaming or meeting app and keeps scrolling. BUILT FOR READING ALOUD Font size 24–96pt, speed 0.5–3x, eight text colors, line spacing, focus line, countdown, horizontal mirror for beam-splitter rigs. Tap to pause, drag to seek, pinch to resize. Settings can be global defaults or apply to a single script. SCRIPTS DONE RIGHT Create, edit, duplicate and import .txt files; everything autosaves; estimated speaking time is calculated as you write. There is no limit on how many scripts you keep, or on how long you record or use voice follow. ADS AND PRIVACY Every feature of CuePane works offline. The only thing that needs a connection is a single banner ad at the bottom of the screen. If you would rather not see it, there is a one-time Remove Ads purchase — it removes the banner and nothing else, because every feature is already open to you. CuePane has no account and no server. It does not track you and never asks for ad tracking permission. Your scripts, recordings and videos stay on this iPhone.
