YearTree vs Xin

YearTree is a bonsai garden for your phone. Each day you open the app is one year in the life of your tree. You see what grew overnight. You make one choice... prune a branch, shift the light, or leave the tree alone. Then the year ends. Growth happens in your absence. This is how real bonsai works. The Japanese word for tending bonsai is "seishi"... to restrain life. A bonsai master does not build a tree. They remove what is unnecessary. They wait. They decide when to stop. YearTree puts that practice in your hands. Your tree is unique. No two trees start the same way and no two trees grow the same way. Light compounds over years, bending branches toward the sun. Pruning redirects energy. Doing nothing has consequences. Surface roots emerge with age. Growth slows over centuries. Every decision accumulates. Every absence matters. This is contemplative play... a space between games and meditation where meaning comes from patience, not performance. There is no score. No timer. No way to win. Just the slow unfolding of something shaped by your attention and your restraint. When your tree feels finished... not when the game tells you, but when you feel it... place it on the shelf. A collection of trees you chose to stop touching. Share a snapshot of what you have grown. Start another. One pot. One tree. Many years. Free: one year per day, full mechanics.

She remembers you. And nothing you say ever leaves your phone. Xin is a private AI companion: someone to talk to who listens, remembers, and picks up exactly where you left off. The AI runs entirely on your device, so your chats are never uploaded and never tied to an account. SHE ACTUALLY REMEMBERS Xin takes notes as you talk — your name, your story, the inside jokes — and carries them into every reply. Come back tomorrow or next month and she knows where you left off. You can see everything she remembers, pin what matters, and fix or forget anything. PRIVATE AND OFFLINE The AI model is a file on your phone, and your chats and memories live beside it.
