Begrudge vs Speakfirst

ugh, fine. Begrudge is for the thing you keep not doing. The dishes. That email. The call. You name it, and you do 2 minutes. That's the whole deal. You're not alone in there. Grudge lives in your phone, rent-free since march. While you do yours, it does one of its own. Badly. It waters doug with coffee. It folds one sock. Resentfully. HOW IT WORKS • Name the thing you're avoiding. It becomes the boss. • Do 2 minutes, side by side. Stay longer if you want. Stop if you don't. • Did you touch it? A little counts. • Win, and it goes on the fridge. GRUDGE'S ROOM Every win shows up in the room. doug grows. The fridge fills up with the bosses you beat. And Grudge's story moves on: Season 1, "the envelope", and Season 2, "the horn", unlock short scenes as you win. PICK HOW IT TALKS Soft, medium or unhinged. Grudge roasts your tasks. Never you. NO GUILT No streaks. No lists. No red badges. Come back after a while and Grudge just says "oh. hi." ALSO • Home Screen widgets and a Lock Screen timer • Start from Siri, Shortcuts or Control Center • A weekly receipt of what you beat, to keep or share • Night mode that follows your phone • Progress syncs through your own iCloud If a task is heavy, Grudge drops the jokes and just sits with you. Begrudge is not therapy or medical care. SUBSCRIPTION Your first full session is free. After that, Begrudge needs a subscription: yearly with a 7-day free trial, or monthly.

Speakfirst helps you build a daily speaking habit — and improve how you sound, fast. Most people never practice out loud. They think about speaking better, watch a TED talk, maybe rehearse once before a big moment — then go back to scrolling. Speakfirst is built for consistency: short daily reps, instant feedback, and a reason to show up every day. Block the apps that drain your time. Practice first. Earn your scroll back minute by minute. WHAT'S INSIDE • Daily speaking training. 6+ guided exercises — Free Talk, tongue twisters, talk-to-camera reps, pacing drills, and more — designed to sharpen clarity, confidence, and delivery. • Instant AI feedback. After every rep, get scored on pace, filler words, clarity, structure, and confidence — so you know exactly what to fix. • Build consistency. A coach-style program that keeps you coming back. Small reps compound into a noticeably stronger voice. • Block distracting apps. Pick what stays off your phone — Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Snapchat, X — using Apple's Screen Time framework. Your block list stays on your device. • Earn screen time back by doing things that compound: – Sharpening your speaking (daily voice exercises + AI scoring) – Workouts with camera rep counting – Language learning programs – Psychology books with flashcards – Real-world side quests • Side Quests. Real-world challenges that push you out of your comfort zone — and reward you with minutes when you follow through. WHY SPEAKFIRST WORKS Speaking is a skill. Skills improve with reps — not willpower lectures. Speakfirst aligns practice with reward: the cost of unlocking your dopamine apps is a small deposit into the version of yourself you've been postponing. You don't fight your phone. You charge it. THE SCIENCE Speakfirst draws on real research — Stanford psychiatrist Dr. Anna Lembke on dopamine, FBI counterintelligence analyst Joe Navarro on behavior, Cialdini on influence, BJ Fogg on tiny habits, and Toastmasters' long-running speaking framework. Sources are listed in-app under Profile → The Science. HEALTH AND WELLNESS DISCLAIMER Speakfirst is a habit and lifestyle app, not a medical device or healthcare provider. Workouts, breathing prompts, speaking drills, side quests, and book summaries are for general fitness, motivation, and self-improvement only. Speakfirst does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Consult a qualified physician or licensed healthcare professional before starting any new exercise routine or making health-related decisions. Stop and seek medical attention if you experience pain, dizziness, shortness of breath, or any other symptom while exercising. PRICING Speakfirst is free to try with a limited budget. The full experience — unlimited earning, all categories, all side quests, AI verification — is unlocked with a Speakfirst Pro subscription. Auto-renews until canceled in iOS Settings. Cancel anytime. PRIVACY Speakfirst works on-device. We don't sell your data. We don't track you across apps. Your name, photos, and reps stay on your phone — except when the camera sends a frame to our AI verifier, which we discard after sending back the verdict.
