Drafty Story vs FormFerry

Your stories belong to you. No cloud. No subscriptions. No AI reading your drafts. Drafty Story is a writing habit app built for people who want to write more and stress less, including writers with ADHD, anxiety, dyslexia, or a brain that just works differently. One-time purchase. Everything stays on your device. Just write. No pressure. Typewriter mode removes the delete key so you stop second-guessing and keep moving forward. Choose how the stopwatch appears: full seconds, minutes only, or hidden entirely. Time works for you, not against you. If life interrupts, your session pauses automatically when you lock your phone. Shape your story, stay in the flow. Markdown support lets you add italics, bold, and headers using simple text symbols. Structure without menus, without breaking your rhythm. Built for how your mind actually works. Flexible scheduling lets you pick the days that suit you. The writing calendar shows your progress over time without punishing you for missing a day. Writing prompts appear gently, never on a countdown, so they inspire rather than pressure. Privacy by design, not by policy. Drafty Story uses zero network connections. There are no accounts to create, no passwords to remember, and no servers storing your work. Export your stories to EPUB 3.0 or plain text at any time: your words, your way. One purchase. Yours forever. No subscriptions. No ads. No data selling. Just a quiet space for your stories.

FormFerry is a local-first operations tracker for paperwork that is already in motion. Build a clear case record for applications, requests, claims, permits, renewals, and other submissions. Record exactly what happened, who owns the next move, and when you want to check in again. CASE CONTROL - Track draft, submitted, receipt-confirmed, waiting, action-required, resolved, and archived cases. - Assign the next action and identify whether you, the recipient, or a third party is responsible. - Save submission method, confirmation number, contact details, and status link. - Enter your own expected-response and check-in dates. FormFerry does not calculate official deadlines. EVIDENCE AND HISTORY - Build a task checklist for missing evidence or follow-up work. - Add timestamped submission, receipt, contact, document, status, decision, and note events. - Attach receipt, confirmation, or status photos to the case. - Search across cases, tasks, references, notes, and timeline activity. REPORTS AND BACKUP - Export a readable case report, CSV register, or PDF evidence packet. - Back up and restore the complete local case register with a FormFerry file. - Use optional local notifications for check-in dates you choose. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account, ads, third-party analytics, or backend service. Case data stays on your device unless you choose to export it. FormFerry records information and dates that you enter. It does not submit paperwork, determine official deadlines, predict outcomes, or provide legal, medical, insurance, tax, or financial advice. Confirm requirements and dates with the responsible organization.
