Read full description

ClearDay is built for ADHD-impacted minds that need calm, not more pressure. Instead of throwing everything at you in one long list, ClearDay lets you see your day in soothing task bubbles across Morning, Forenoon, Afternoon, and Evening. You can drag tasks to a better spot as your energy changes and tap them done for an instant sense of progress. Capture tasks quickly with voice input before they disappear, then add urgency, repeats, and future copies in seconds. When life feels noisy, filters help you focus on what matters now. And when you need a different kind of clarity, list view and calendar access are right there. ClearDay helps you stay motivated with gentle rewards, flexible planning, and a calmer way to move through the day. SUBSCRIPTION INFORMATION ClearDay offers auto-renewable subscriptions.

Features
Read full description

Branchnote is a notes app organized around branches — named containers, one per topic, with every note living in exactly one of them. Branches can hold sub-branches, as many levels deep as you like. Every branch is its own feed. Type at the top to add a note, and pin one to keep it at the top of the branch. No account needed. Open the app and start writing. ORGANIZE BY TOPIC Make a branch for work, recipes, reading, half-formed ideas — whatever you actually keep notes about. Add sub-branches to any branch, like Recipes/Desserts/Cookies. Move a note, or a whole branch with everything in it, whenever something ends up in the wrong place. WRITE IN MARKDOWN Headings, bold, italics, and links that render as cards. Bullet, numbered, and checkbox lists, nested up to four levels, with checkboxes you can tick right in the note. Formatting renders as you type, and a toolbar above the keyboard applies any of it without having to remember the syntax. FIND ANYTHING Full-text search across every note, ranked by relevance, with matching excerpts pulled out and your search terms highlighted in the results. LOCK IT Set a passcode and Branchnote locks every time you return to it. Unlock with your passcode, or with biometrics if your device supports it. Your notes stay covered in the app switcher. BACK IT UP Copy your notes into a single file and save it wherever you like, then restore it whenever you need to.
