Deforget
Read full descriptionHide full description
Deforget is a diary that remembers for you. Write about your day the way you'd tell a friend. On-device intelligence quietly picks out the things you'd hate to forget - commitments, plans, decisions, open questions, and the people they involve - and turns them into something useful: • Promises become reminders in Apple Reminders, right on time • Plans land in your calendar - and meeting notes attach themselves to their meeting • People get pages: the Index gathers everything you've ever written about anyone • Decisions and open questions stay findable, months later • Repeats and relative times work the way you say them: "every Friday", "in 20 minutes" No tags. No forms. No filing. You just write. A two-minute tutorial shows you how on your first page, and you can change your mind about any highlight from its card. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Everything happens on your device, powered by Apple Intelligence. Your words are never sent anywhere - Deforget runs no servers and collects nothing. Sync happens through your personal iCloud, invisible to everyone but you. Siri and Spotlight see your pages only if you switch that on. THE DIARY IS FREE FOREVER Writing, reading, syncing, and export are never locked. The intelligence - extraction, the Index, automatic reminders and events - is free for your first 7 days, then available with Deforget Pro: monthly, yearly, or a one-time lifetime purchase. Deforget requires an Apple Intelligence-capable device (iPhone 15 Pro or newer, M-series iPad, M-series Mac). With Apple Intelligence switched off, Deforget is still a beautiful, private, free diary. The intelligence understands English today. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

PulseList is one short list of what actually needs you. Type it, say it, photograph it, or hand over a screenshot. PulseList works out what it asks of you and puts that one line on your list. Clear it when it's done. • Share a list and tick it off together. • Screenshot a restaurant, museum or bar in Google Maps to save it as somewhere to go. • One press from Control Center, the Lock Screen or the Action Button (iOS 18 or later). • With PulseList Plus, your Reminders and calendars join the same list. PulseList never changes them. PulseList 1.8 holds no server of its own. No account with us, no analytics, no crash reporter. A list you share goes to your iCloud and the iCloud of the person you shared it with, which is Apple's and not ours. Everything else stays on your iPhone. Free to start. PulseList Plus watches on your behalf: your photo library, Reminders, calendar, repeating tasks, the widget and the month view. $1.99 a month with the first three days free, or $29.99 once. Subscriptions renew until cancelled in your Apple Account settings. Terms of Use: https://pulselist.io/terms

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: PulseList at every 2 days against Deforget's every 2 weeks. PulseList also leads on iOS requirement (17.0 vs 27.0). Deforget's advantage is device support (3 vs 1). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
