Dose Days is a quiet companion for your microdosing practice. Log your doses, intentions, moods, and reflections in your own words, and watch the patterns emerge across your whole cycle. Most trackers only see the dose. Dose Days understands the full rhythm: dose days, integration days, and the return to baseline. That is where the real picture lives. WHAT YOU CAN DO: - Log in seconds. Capture each dose with an intention, a mood, and a note, in your own words. The app learns your language over time. - See your whole journey. A calendar shows your rhythm and your moods together, so you can read a full cycle at a glance. - Track your stack. Record every component with its own amount, from a template built in or one you save yourself. - Understand what works. Dose Days reflects your patterns back to you: how you feel on dose days, integration days, and at baseline, and what actually makes a difference for you. - Build around your rhythm. Follow a structured protocol or design your own. - Breathe with intention. A calm, guided breathing space, built in. - Your data, safe and yours. Back up everything to a file, or turn on automatic backup to your own private iCloud, so nothing is lost if you change or reset your phone. PRIVATE BY DESIGN All your data stays on your device. No account, no tracking, no servers of ours. If you turn on backup, it goes only to your own private iCloud, never to us. Dose Days is a tool for reflection and self awareness. It does not provide medical advice.

Foray turns going out into a record of how far you've come. Built for people with agoraphobia and anxiety, and useful for anyone who wants to see how far they go, how long they're out, and how it felt. When you step outside a small circle around home, Foray quietly starts a foray. It keeps your route, distance and time out while your phone stays in your pocket. When you're back, you get a calm summary and your personal bests, growing with you. GENTLE TOOLS FOR HARD MOMENTS • Heading Home: a full-screen arrow pointing back, with a one-tap "I'm Safe" button • Breathe: a simple paced breathing circle • Controls (iOS 18 or later): start a foray, Heading Home or Breathe from Control Center, the Lock Screen or the Action button • Help shows the crisis line for your country • Start, end or cancel a foray yourself any time • Pin safe spots on the map, places you trust • Someone to tell: one tap fills in an "I'm out" text to a person you trust, and "Home safe" when you're back. You always press Send yourself. • Apple Watch: start a foray, Heading Home, Breathe with taps on your wrist, and "I'm safe", with the phone in your pocket. Your watch face shows how long you've been out • VoiceOver and the largest text sizes work throughout, on iPhone and Apple Watch YOUR PROGRESS • Your route on the map, live while you're out • The numbers that matter, big: how far from home, time out, your farthest ever • Journeys: every foray sorted by farthest, longest or most recent, with search • Name each foray, and note how it felt • Places to try at a distance you choose • Your week at a glance, with no streak to break • Sunday week note (if you turn it on): one quiet notification on Sunday evening with your week • Your month in review: from the 1st to the 7th, last month on one card you can share (anxiety stays off the shared card unless you add it) • One small step: after ten days without a foray, Foray offers one easy step to try. No notifications, no rush. • Ask Siri or Shortcuts "how far did I go this week" CHAPTERS Setbacks happen. Start a new chapter when you want a fresh slate. Past forays stay in the chapter you closed, browsable any time, without counting against your current records. FORAY+ (OPTIONAL) • Exposure ladder: list the situations that feel hard, rate them 0 to 100, and climb them easiest first. A matching foray asks if it counted, and re-rating shows how much easier things have become. Your first 3 steps are free. • Anxiety before and after each foray, with a chart that shows it easing • A one-page summary for your therapist (no map, no places) • Patterns: time of day, day of week, distance bands • Weekly minimums: a floor for forays, distance and time out each week, gentle by default • Goals, with a notification when you reach them • Live Activity, Dynamic Island and a home-screen widget • Unlimited safe spots and chapters • Apple Health: forays saved as walking workouts $1.99 a month or $9.99 a year, both with a 14-day free trial, or $19.99 once for life with Family Sharing. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • Your history stays on your iPhone and backs up to your own private iCloud • No accounts, no ads, no analytics, no third-party trackers • Light on battery: Foray only runs GPS while you're out Foray will never paywall the tools you might need in a rough moment.
