Write a thought in your own words, keep an optional next step, and return when you choose. A private shelf beside the familiar tactile stones. HOW IT WORKS 1. Tap Thought shelf from the stone screen, then Write a thought. Add an optional next step in your own words. 2. Keep the entry Open, set it aside for Later with an optional revisit date, or File it. Return to add a follow-up; edits preserve the original entry and creation date. 3. Search your writing, reopen filed entries, share a saved entry explicitly, or permanently delete it after confirmation. Tactile stones, breathing, rituals, settling curves, reflections, stone gifts, widgets and settings remain available. A readable Stones/Tools header replaces the crowded icon row, and the interface now supports native iPad layouts. WHAT TO KNOW This is personal writing, not mental-health assessment or treatment. No emotion score or outcome is inferred. Revisit dates do not schedule notifications. Thought Shelf entries are separate from the existing stone-backup export; shared copies and operating-system backups are independent. iPhone and iPad.

MapGoGoGo turns real movement into a territory game. Walk, run, and explore your city to light up hex tiles on the map. Every route grows your personal territory, records your progress, and turns familiar streets into places worth revisiting. What you can do: - Light up map tiles as you move through the real world - Claim and reinforce territory through repeated visits - Track daily progress, streaks, and explored area - Review your city growth from clear stats and charts - Unlock achievements as your map expands - Export your exploration data when you need it MapGoGoGo is built for people who want a playful reason to go outside. It is not just a step counter, and it is not just a map. It gives every walk a visible result and every route a little more meaning. Privacy matters. Your map is based on your own device activity, and the app is designed around personal exploration rather than real-time public tracking. Start walking. Claim your blocks. Build a city that is yours.
