Tidecard is the diary card you fill in between sessions. It has two sides, like the paper one. On the front you name a feeling and set how strong it was from 0 to 10, with a note and a time of day. You can log the same feeling more than once a day, because real days work that way. On the back you mark which coping skills you actually used, and how much each one helped. - Name a feeling and rate it from 0 to 10, not yes or no - Log the same feeling as many times as it comes up - Mark what you used from a built-in library of four skill groups - Rate how much each skill helped, from 0 to 7 - Look back at your whole week on one screen - Save or share a clean, one-page PDF to bring to your next session Everything works offline. Nothing you write leaves the device unless you choose to share it. There is no account to create. Tidecard is a place to write things down. It is not therapy and it is not a substitute for care from a clinician. Works on iPhone and iPad.

About

Tidbook

Read full description

A calm way to declutter your home, one room at a time. Tidbook turns the pile you have been avoiding into a short, kind challenge. Pick a room, get one small mission for today, and decide one thing at a time โ€” Keep, Donate, or Toss. No account, no ads, and a tone that never scolds. Built for overwhelmed brains, including ADHD ones: small missions instead of a mountain, a few choices at a time instead of a hundred, and a Maybe box for the things you are not ready to decide yet. ROOM BY ROOM Pick the bedroom, kitchen, closet, garage โ€” or the whole home. Each day brings one small zone: a drawer, a shelf, one corner. Never the entire house at once. KIND DECISIONS Swipe each item Keep, Donate, or Toss. Keep means put it away now. Hard call? Park it in the Maybe box and Tidbook will gently ask again later. You are never forced to let anything go. PROOF YOU CAN SEE Take a before photo, do the work, take the after. The side-by-side pair is the payoff โ€” and a lifetime counter quietly adds up everything you have let go. GIVE WITH MEANING Every donated item lands in your donation log. Add estimated values and export a summary when tax season comes around. GENTLE STREAKS A missed day never zeroes you out. Grace days and streak repair keep momentum without pressure โ€” never miss twice, never feel punished. Prefer hard rules? Classic mode is one toggle away. SHORT ON ENERGY? Start a 15-minute sprint. One timer, one spot, quick-count taps for flow state. Done is done. GOES DEEPER WHEN YOU DO Tidbook Pro is a single one-time purchase that unlocks every challenge template โ€” including The Minimalist Game, the classic 30-day escalating challenge โ€” plus custom challenges, unlimited photo galleries, lifetime stats, donation values and export, and every decision-prompt style. Family Sharing included. YOURS, FOREVER Pay once and own it. No subscription, no ads, no account. Your photos and your progress stay on your device โ€” Tidbook has no network connection at all. Start with one drawer. Your future self will thank you.
