Trayzero brings David Allen's Getting Things Done (GTD) method to your iPhone. Free, no ads, no account, no sign-up. Your data lives on your device. Always. THE FIVE GTD STEPS, BUILT IN Capture - one tap, anywhere. A floating Capture button on every screen. Share anything from any app straight into your inbox. Voice-to-text for hands-free thoughts. A Home Screen widget for the fastest possible "add to inbox." Clarify - the killer flow. Process Inbox runs you through your captures one at a time, card-stack style. Each card walks the full GTD decision tree: actionable? Two-minute rule? Delegate? Single step or a project? When? Where? You hit inbox-zero faster than you thought possible. Organize - the canonical GTD lists. Inbox, Next Actions, Projects, Waiting For, Someday/Maybe, Calendar, Reference. Plus a real Project type with outcome, next-action warning, and Active / On Hold / Someday / Done / Dropped status. Seven default @-contexts you can extend (@phone, @computer, @errands, @home, @office, @anywhere, @waiting). Areas of Responsibility for the higher altitudes. Reflect - a Weekly Review wizard. A seven-step Friday review walks you through the canonical GTD pass: clear inbox, review next actions, check waiting-for, scan calendar, review someday/maybe, look at projects, set next week's intentions. Daily review supported too. Engage - do now. The Engage tab filters Next Actions by Context, Energy (low / medium / high), and Time Available (under 5m / 15m / 30m / 1h). Pull up the actions that match the moment you're in. REMINDERS THAT ACTUALLY WORK Due-date, defer-until, waiting-for follow-up, and weekly-review nudges fire as system notifications with action buttons - Done, Snooze, Move to Next Actions. Calendar two-way sync mirrors dated items into your system calendar. VOICE, PHOTOS, AUDIO Capture by voice. Attach photos or voice memos to any item. PRIVACY YOU DON'T HAVE TO THINK ABOUT - 100% on-device. SQLite under the hood. - No account, no servers, no analytics. - Crash reporting is opt-in and off by default. - Backup/restore as plain JSON: you own your data, you can take it anywhere. WHO IT'S FOR - GTD practitioners who want a clean, focused app that respects the method. - Anyone tired of cloud-syncing personal task data through someone else's servers. - People who want their tasks where their phone is - and nowhere else.

Bramble is a local-first password manager. Your passwords live in an encrypted vault on your device, not on someone else's server. There is no account to create and nothing phoning home. Everything cryptographic runs in a Rust core: Argon2id derives your key, AES-256-GCM encrypts your data, and envelope encryption gives every entry its own key. Site names, usernames, and notes are all encrypted, and secrets are wiped from memory after use. FEATURES - AutoFill passwords and one-time codes into apps and Safari, right from the keyboard. - Passkeys: create and sign in with passkeys, with Bramble as your own authenticator, for sites and apps that support them. - Unlock with Face ID or Touch ID, your master password, or a recovery code. - Store logins, payment cards, secure notes, and SSH keys, each with their own fields. - Built-in strong password generator. - TOTP / 2FA: add an otpauth URI or secret and Bramble generates the six-digit codes. - Import from KeePass (KDBX4), key files included. - Recovery code: a printable, high-entropy backup that unlocks your vault independently of your master password. - Optional breach check using k-anonymity, so nothing about your password leaves your device. - Auto-lock after inactivity. - Sync between your own devices peer-to-peer. No cloud, no relay holding your data. PRIVACY Bramble has no account, no subscription, and no telemetry. Your vault never leaves your control, and the code runs entirely on your device.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Bramble at none against Trayzero's 4. Bramble also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs monthly). Trayzero's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
