NewPractice vs Keepout

[Introduction] “I've absorbed so much input but haven't put it into practice...” “I want to manage all my books, videos, audio, etc. in one place to cut down on extra hassle.” Ever thought about that? NewPractice is a note-taking app designed to prevent input from ending with “just reading.” Its purpose is to connect all your learning and insights—from books, movies, music, videos, articles, and more—to action. [Overview] We believe simply recording your input is sufficient. However, reviewing and outputting your notes further helps maintain motivation. NewPractice lets you freely record any input, regardless of genre. Designed with simplicity and continuity in mind, it allows you to keep only what you need and review at your own pace. [Features] ・Record anything 　Register inputs like books, movies, music, videos, articles, etc., regardless of format. ・Entry-level hiding 　Hide entries you'd rather not show, like certain works or records. 　Re-display them only when you want to review them. ・“Later” management 　Register works you want to watch or read later. ・Easy Registration via Search Instantly register books, movies, music, etc., by searching—no tedious input required. ・Calendar View Review your inputs chronologically—when and what you consumed. ・Graph View Visualize your input volume by category and grasp trends. ・No Intrusive Ads The developer personally dislikes ads that constantly appear or force interruptions. Therefore, ads that distract you won't be implemented. [Summary] No unnecessary ads. It's the minimal setup for thinking, reflecting, and taking action. Turn input into practice. NewPractice is the place for that. Terms of Use (EULA)：https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Keepout is a private notes app for iPhone and iPad. Your writing stays on your device, encrypted at rest, with local tools for connecting and understanding ideas. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • AES-256-GCM encryption protects every note at rest. • Your vault key stays in this device's non-synchronizing Keychain. • Opaque filenames keep note titles and links out of the file system. • There is no account, cloud sync, analytics, remote prompt processing, or plaintext search index. CONNECTED KNOWLEDGE • Link notes with familiar double-bracket wiki links. • Follow backlinks and suggested related notes. • Explore an interactive knowledge graph built with Apple's local sentence embeddings. • Search decrypted notes in memory while the vault is unlocked. LOCAL AI • Ask questions, summarize a note, and suggest connections without sending note text to a server. • Use Apple Foundation Models on supported devices. • Choose the optional MLX engine for local inference. Its compact model downloads once on first use; inference then stays on your device. FOCUSED WRITING • Open the transient action bar from the toolbar or with Command-K on a hardware keyboard. • Type / in the editor for headings, lists, tasks, quotes, code blocks, dividers, and links. • Switch to a centered typewriter view that hides the side columns and softly fades the page edges. • Navigate with touch or hardware-keyboard shortcuts on iPad. • Markdown syntax and link destinations stay visually quiet until the caret enters them. Keepout stores each encrypted note in a .md file so your vault remains a collection of Markdown documents without exposing their contents at rest.
