Googit
Read full descriptionHide full description
Googit is the fastest way to get a to-do out of your head and onto your Lock Screen. Type a thought, hit return, and it becomes a post-it on your wall. Done with it? Tap the note and it bursts into star dust. That is the whole app. WHY GOOGIT - Zero friction: open, type, enter. No folders, no due dates, no accounts. - Lock Screen widget: your latest to-do sits right on your Lock Screen, and you can check it off without unlocking your phone. - Tap to finish: notes pop away with a sparkle and a satisfying crumple. - Color is your category: drag a note onto a paint dot to color it, tap a color to see only those notes. - Reorder by hand: grab the handle on the right side of a note and drop it where you want. - Private by design: everything stays on your phone. No account, no server, no data collected. Small, light, and a little bit delightful. Write it, stick it, and googit (crumple it!) when it is done.

Fill a whole month of shifts in one go, and know when to sleep around your nights. Type your rotation once (for example D D E E N N OFF OFF), pick a start date, and Shift Note fills the calendar for as many months as you need. Today and tomorrow sit at the top in large type, and the Sleep tab shows a plan for the week ahead. Made for nurses, factory and plant crews, firefighters, police, paramedics, call center teams and anyone on a rotating schedule. WHAT IT DOES β’ Pattern fill: start date + repeating pattern fills months at once β’ Tap any day to change the shift, saved instantly β’ Monthly summary: count of each shift type and total hours β’ Sleep plan: suggested bedtime, nap window and last-caffeine time around night shifts and quick turnarounds β’ Custom shift types: your own names, short codes, colors and start/end times β’ Home Screen widgets: small shows today and tomorrow; medium adds the next 7 days and today's sleep line β’ Lock Screen widgets: inline, rectangular and circular β’ iCloud backup: your schedule restores on any device signed in with the same Apple ID β’ Dark mode first, large readable type β’ Available in 17 languages PRIVACY AND NO FUSS β’ No sign-up, no login β’ Your schedule stays on your device and in your own iCloud backup; there is no account and no server of ours β’ No ad pops up when you open the app. A small banner keeps it free. The sleep plan is general guidance for shift workers, not medical advice. If you have a sleep disorder or health concern, talk to a doctor.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Googit at none against Shift Note's shown. Googit also leads on update cadence (daily vs every 3 weeks). Shift Note's advantage is iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
