Will today just slip by? Ripple is an app for holding on to the moments your heart responds to, in what you see, hear, and feel. As the day goes on, small stirrings of the heart come and go, hard to explain and easy to forget. A sudden joy. A heaviness you can't name. A word or a scene that stays with you. Ripple helps you keep those moments. You don't need to know what you feel. You don't need to write much. When your heart ripples, a single tap is enough. Tap now, name it later. A time to look back on your day Each moment you tap becomes a specimen, gathered hour by hour in your Lab. At the end of the day, look closer at each one and stain it with the color closest to how you felt. Fluttery, calm, heavy. You name the colors yourself. Then close the day with a line, and seal it. Every sealed day stays in your Vault calendar as that day's color. Scattered moments find their meaning when they come together. Features - Collect moments When your heart stirs, record the time with a single tap. - One-line notes Add a line whenever you want. Voice input is supported. - Lab Look closer at the specimens gathered each hour, then stain and name them. - Seal the day Close the day with a short reflection and seal it. A gentle reminder arrives at your seal time. - Vault A calendar that fills with the colors of your sealed days. Revisit past reflections anytime. - Monthly report See the colors of the month, the weekly flow, and the hours your heart stirs most, at a glance. - Widget and watch Record right from your home screen widget or your watch, without opening the app. - Cabinet 22 button materials, from glass marble to mother-of-pearl, each with its own sound and touch. - Safe by design Records are saved on your device first. Only sealed days are kept in the cloud. Ripple is for you if you - Don't want your days to pass by unnoticed - Want to sort out your feelings but don't know what to write - Want to look back on yourself, even briefly - Find journaling hard but want to start recording - Look for moments of prayer and reflection in your everyday life Memories slip away easily, but Ripple brings them back. Your days don't just slip away.
