Figmint vs ThisDay

Some ideas arrive as a single word at 2am. Most never make it past that. Figmint is a calm home for those sparks, and a gentle collaborator that helps you grow them into something real. NEW IN 2.0 • A fresh look, and three places to work: Ideas, Do and Notes. • Map it: turn an idea into a simple flow chart, built only from your own words. • Pick a path: weigh your options against what matters to you, with every score explained. Then "What first?" sorts your plan by impact and effort. • Get unstuck six ways: name the blocker, make it smaller, flip it, see what usually stalls ideas like yours, pick a path, or talk it through. • Do: one list for today, tomorrow and later, with steps sent straight from your ideas. • Notes: write freely, and connect a note to the ideas it belongs with. MADE FOR iOS 27 • Map it from a photo. Snap a sketch, a whiteboard or a notebook page, and Figmint turns it into a chart you can keep. • Talk it through holds a real conversation that remembers what you said, then names one step to take. • Drag a to-do from today to tomorrow, or anywhere on your list. Figmint runs on iOS 18 and later. Map it from a photo needs iOS 27 on a device whose Apple Intelligence can read images. HOW IT WORKS • Jot a few words. That's the whole ask, no blank-page pressure. • Figmint asks one good question at a time to draw the idea out. Answer in a word or a paragraph: today, tomorrow, or whenever it strikes. • When there's enough to go on, it suggests ONE small first step. Not a daunting plan, just somewhere to start. • A light plan forms, and keeps changing as you do. • It quietly notices when two of your ideas connect, and offers a single suggestion to bring them together. MADE FOR MINDS THAT WANDER No streaks. No guilt. No "you've broken your chain." Figmint nudges you at most once a day, and only when it has something worth saying. It's built for the way creative and ADHD brains actually work: scattered, nonlinear, full of half-thoughts worth keeping. CAPTURE HOWEVER IT ARRIVES • Type it, or tap the microphone and just say it. • Point the camera at a whiteboard, a napkin, or a page of a notebook. Figmint reads the text and keeps the words. • Add from the Home Screen widget, the Share sheet, Control Center, or Siri. FIND IT AGAIN Search your ideas in the app or straight from your Home Screen, or ask Siri to open one by name. BRING YOUR OWN NOTES Point Figmint at a folder of notes you already keep (a Markdown vault, an export, anything in Files) and its questions start building on what you've already written. It only ever reads them. Nothing is changed, nothing is deleted. A SUBSCRIPTION-FREE APP, PRIVATE BY DESIGN • No subscriptions, ever. The AI is powered by the intelligence already on your iPhone, at no cost. • All the intelligence runs on your device. Your ideas, your voice and your photos are never sent to a server. • Speech and language features use Apple's on-device models. iOS downloads those models once, from Apple, the first time you use them. Your content is never part of that. • No account. No sign-up. No ads. No tracking. • Your ideas sync only to your own private iCloud, across your devices. Figmint is for the woodworker, the songwriter, the knitter, the tinkerer: anyone with more ideas than time, who just needs a kind, quiet partner to help one of them come true. Plant a thought. Watch it grow.

Not someday. ThisDay. Most planners hand you a backlog. ThisDay hands you a day. Every task, note, voice memo, event and habit lands on a real date; not in a someday pile you scroll past for months. Open the app and there is one thing in front of you: today, in the order it happens. ONE DAY, EVERY KIND OF THING Tasks, events, notes, voice memos, photos and habits share one list, because they share one day. A habit at 10:00 sits between the 9:00 task and the 11:00 meeting, where it belongs. Same row, same swipe, same checkbox, whatever kind of thing it is. Your own calendars appear inline too, at the hour they happen, so a morning with a meeting in it never looks free. EVERYTHING CAN REMIND YOU Record a voice memo and put a reminder on it. Write a note and have it find you at 6pm. Your phone can already take a voice memo, it just can't tell you about it later. ThisDay can. HABITS THAT TICK THEMSELVES Point a habit at Apple Health and stop reporting on yourself. Steps, exercise minutes, active energy, sleep, the Watch's three rings, and workouts from running to yoga. Set the number you're aiming at; ThisDay watches for it and fills the ring as your day fills it. ThisDay only reads Health, never writes to it, and only the measurement each habit names. Nothing leaves your device. And a habit is never marked done because a sensor said so and you disagreed. No reading is ever "done"; if your watch was on the charger, the tick is still yours to make. Your tick always wins. APPLE REMINDERS, BOTH WAYS The Reminders lists you choose show up in your day, next to everything else, read-only: ThisDay never edits somebody else's row. And when you ask for it, the other direction. Tasks you make here are written back out as reminders, so they reach Siri, a Mac that doesn't run ThisDay, and anyone you share a list with. Switching it off takes the copies back out. NOTHING GETS BURIED Unfinished work follows you to today instead of quietly aging on a date you've already passed. Completed things can leave the list or stay in a folded section, your call. ONE RULER, FROM A DAY TO THE YEAR Slide the ruler at the top of your day out to a few days, the week, the month or the whole year, and tap any day to come back into it. The + is always one thumb away. ALSO IN HERE • Quick capture for every kind of item • Reminders, repeats and rollover • Categories, priorities and links • SiriAI: ask about your plans, answered on your device (Apple Intelligence) • A Library for notes, voice notes, pictures, places and countdowns • An inbox for anything without a day yet • Monthly recaps and medals you can share • Widgets, Live Activities and an Apple Watch app • Shortcuts and Siri • Twelve languages, every screen in each one • Light and dark, and an accent you choose • Your day on iPhone, iPad, iPhone Duo and Mac BUILT BY ONE PERSON There is no account and no sign-up, because there is no server to sign up to. No analytics, no tracking, and nothing sold to anyone; your day never leaves your device. Something broken or missing? Write to hello@akilastudio.com and you'll get a reply from the person who made it. FREE FOR TASKS, ONE PRICE FOR THE REST ThisDay is free for 21 days with everything included; no card up front and nothing to cancel. After that, tasks and repeats stay free for good. ThisDay Pro opens everything else with one payment. No subscription, no renewal. ThisDay is on the Mac too, in this same App Store listing, with its own one-time unlock. If you bought ThisDay on iPhone, the Mac costs less.
