Fromly is your second brain with chat: write notes and tasks, and talk to an AI that actually knows them — because it can read and edit them for you. • Chat with memory: every note, task or document has its own AI conversation. It remembers the context and picks up right where you left off. • AI that really edits: ask it to add a paragraph, summarize a document, or pull tasks out of a note — and it does it directly, not just tells you about it. • Agenda & tasks: plan your day, week and month, with recurring tasks and reminders. • Contexts: group notes and tasks by project or area of your life, each with its own memory. • Agents: automate the processes you repeat. • Real-time sync across iPhone, iPad, Mac and web. Free to start. Pro unlocks unlimited AI. Your notes are yours: private and exportable any time. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

A focus timer should be simple. Bloom is a timer for work and study, and not much else. Pick a tree, choose how long you want to focus, and start. The tree grows while you work, and joins your forest when the session ends. Longer sessions grow bigger trees. New species unlock as your hours add up. Give up early and your tree dies. Plant with a friend: share your code, start one countdown together, and if either of you gives up, both trees die. Over time you end up with a forest you built yourself as a quiet record of the work you've done.
