BrainDump vs Stepwise Timer

BrainDump is the productivity app built for how your brain actually works. Most apps give you lists. BrainDump gives you momentum. Hold one button. Speak whatever's on your mind — tasks, worries, ideas, everything. BrainDump turns it into simple, swipeable task cards. One at a time. No overwhelm. Just the next thing. VOICE EVERYTHING Stop typing tasks. Just talk. BrainDump captures everything you say and organizes it instantly — so you spend zero energy on setup and all your energy on doing. ONE TASK AT A TIME No more staring at a 47-item to-do list. BrainDump shows you one card at a time. Swipe right to start. Swipe down when done. Simple enough to actually use. TASK TIMER — EXECUTION MODE Swiping "do it now" gives you a starting line. See the task title, a suggested time estimate, and one big Done button. Nothing else. No distractions. SMART ESTIMATES BrainDump suggests realistic time estimates automatically. Quick calls? 5 min. Medium tasks? 20 min. Tap to adjust instantly — no menus, no friction. GENTLE RESURFACING If you swipe right but don't finish, the task quietly comes back later. No guilt. No shame spiral. Just a nudge when your brain has space again. SMART REMINDERS + DEEP LINKING Set a reminder on any task. Tap the notification and land directly on that card — full screen, ready to act. No digging. No searching. No context switching. ADHD-FRIENDLY NOTIFICATIONS "Hey — [task] is waiting for you." "[task] slipped through. No biggie — here it is again." "What's weighing on you? Dump it." Supportive. Not guilt-inducing. THE EXECUTION LOOP 1. Dump everything on your mind 2. Get one clear task 3. Swipe "do it now" — timer starts 4. Finish — instant completion feedback 5. Not done? It resurfaces gently 6. Reminder brings you back to exactly the right card You're never abandoned mid-task again. BrainDump. One button. One task. Go.

Chain a few timed steps into a "sequence", press play, and Stepwise walks you through it — one step at a time. Each step counts down on its own. When it ends, the next one starts automatically with a sound and a spoken announcement of what's coming up.
