Not Yet vs Did U Touch Grass?

Impulse purchases don’t happen because you need something. They happen because of a moment. Not Yet helps you pause that moment — and decide later, when it matters. Instead of tracking budgets or telling you what to do, Not Yet adds a short cooling-off period before a purchase and captures how you felt when you wanted it. When the wait ends, you choose — calmly and intentionally. No accounts, no onboarding, straight to the point. How it works • Add something you want to buy • Optionally attach a link or images to remember exactly what caught your eye • Choose a short delay (24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days) • Capture what’s driving the urge • Wait — the item is locked • Decide later: buy it, skip it, or wait longer You can edit items at any time — update the price, notes, links, or images as your thinking changes. When you decide not to buy, you’ll see exactly what you avoided spending — a small but satisfying reminder. Why Not Yet is different Most apps remind you what you wanted. Not Yet reminds you how you felt. By replaying the emotional context — bored, stressed, excited, fear of missing out — the impulse often loses its power. What felt urgent rarely feels the same a few days later. No lectures. No guilt. No pressure. Just space to think. Designed to feel calm • Minimal, distraction-free interface • No accounts or sign-in • No ads • No clutter • Local-first and private Helpful, not obsessive • Gentle notifications at decision time • Simple stats that show what you didn’t buy • No charts or dashboards Not a budgeting app. Not a finance tracker. Just a better moment to decide. Free vs Premium Not Yet is fully usable for free. The free version includes: • Up to 3 active waiting items • Standard waiting periods (24 hours, 7 days, 30 days) • Attach links and images to purchases • Edit purchases at any time • Full decision flow and summaries • Decision reminders • All data stored locally on your device Not Yet Premium unlocks: • Unlimited active waiting items • Custom waiting durations — choose any time that fits your decision • Support ongoing development of the app Premium is optional. There are no ads, no accounts, and no data tracking — whether you upgrade or not. Not Yet — because some things are better bought later. Terms of use: https://sidetrck.org/not-yet-terms/

SYSTEM ERROR: LIFE.EXE NOT FOUND. Did U Touch Grass is a minimalist digital intervention utility. While every other app on your phone is fighting for your attention, this one is empowering you to give it away. In an era of infinite scrolls and digital fatigue, we provide a "portal" back to the physical world. No streaks, no social pressure, and no data-harvesting. Just a clean, lo-fi interface designed to help you interrupt the loop and reclaim your time. HOW IT WORKS: GENTLE INTERVENTION: Choose an offline activity—read a book, take a walk, or just stare at a wall. THE TIMER: Set your phone down. Our minimalist timer keeps track of your "Time Spent Away," not "Time Spent In-App." ZINE REWARDS: Premium users unlock custom, printable lo-fi zines based on their offline sessions. AUTHENTIC 90S AESTHETIC: A brutalist, grayscale UI for those who find modern "Wellness" apps too noisy. WHY WE ARE DIFFERENT: NO ACCOUNTS: No sign-ups, no passwords, no tracking. LOCAL-ONLY: Your data stays on your device. Period. SOLO-DEVELOPED: Built by a human who actually wants you to put your phone down. NO SUBSCRIPTIONS: Pay once, own it forever. FAQ: Is it secure? Yes. Since there is no "cloud," your session data is stored locally on your device only. Why use this? Because you aren't the product here. This is a tool designed specifically to get you off your phone. What are the stats for? Tracking is optional. The numbers don't "matter" unless you find the progress fun to see. Stop scrolling. Start living. Go touch grass.
