Untangle
Read full descriptionHide full description
Therapy works. Then the week happens. You leave the session clear. Something finally clicked, you knew what you wanted to try, and within days life has closed over it. Untangle is built for exactly that gap: nothing from therapy gets lost. One hour with your therapist, then 167 hours of life before the next one. Most of what happens in the room does not survive the week, and what gets forgotten never gets practiced. Untangle is for the other 167 hours. RIGHT AFTER YOUR SESSION (60 SECONDS) Walk out, tap once, and say it while it is warm: what you talked about, what clicked, what you want to try. Untangle turns the ramble into the week's handles, kept in your own words. THROUGH THE WEEK What you are practicing sits at the top of Today. One glance and you remember what you wanted to try, so it gets used instead of forgotten. Check each one off as you do it. One tap, its own count. No streaks, no guilt, just an honest record of what you actually practiced. Rough moment? Open your own tools: a guided breath, and the thing that has helped you most, ready to use. Keep what works and it stays in your toolkit long after the week ends. WHEN YOUR HEAD GETS LOUD Talk or type the mess. No structure needed. In seconds it comes back organized: the themes underneath, one calm "it sounds like" line, gentle questions worth sitting with, and talking points for your next session. WALKING BACK IN Your next-session brief builds itself: what is worth the room's time, how the practice actually went, and the threads you keep pulling. You arrive knowing what to say. Session after session it compounds, and nothing you said has to be said twice. EVERYTHING, KEPT Every note lands on your Timeline. Search it, or just ask your notes a question, and get the answer in your own words. YOUR FIRST NOTE IS FREE Made from your own words during setup, before you decide anything. You feel it work before you pay for it. YOUR THOUGHTS STAY YOURS No account needed. Your notes live on your phone, never on our servers. Want a backup? Turn on iCloud backup and a copy goes to your own private iCloud. AI processing happens only in the moment you ask. We never store your words, never use them to train AI, and never sell them. Lock with Face ID. Export or delete everything, any time. MAKE IT YOURS Pick your colors, and set the app to your own session rhythm: weekly, every other week, monthly, or twice a week. Untangle is a journaling and organization tool. It is not a medical device, does not provide diagnosis or treatment, and is not a replacement for professional care. If you are in crisis, the app links you to real support lines under Settings. Membership unlocks the full experience. The yearly plan starts with a 7-day free trial.
