About

Note1

Features
Read full description

Note1 keeps one note in front of you. No folders. No lists. No endless scrolling. You open the app and your note is already there, ready to edit. PIN IT WHERE YOU LOOK Pin a note to your Lock Screen and the Dynamic Island. A phone number you just heard, a parking spot, a shopping list, the thing you must not forget today. Glance at your phone and it is there. THREE NOTES, ONE SWIPE APART Swipe left and right to move between your notes. Each one can be pinned on its own, so you can keep today's errand on the Lock Screen while the other notes wait. HOME SCREEN WIDGET Put your note on the Home Screen. Choose which note each widget shows, place several, and tap one to jump straight to that note. SCHEDULE A MEMO Write a memo now and pick a time. When the time comes you get a notification, and one tap adds it to your note or deletes it. Plan tonight's shopping list or tomorrow morning's reminders ahead. MADE TO STAY OUT OF THE WAY - Opens straight into your note - Adjustable text size and alignment - Minimal display option for the Dynamic Island so a glance does not reveal everything - Works offline. No account, no sign-up YOUR NOTES STAY YOURS Notes are stored on your device. We have no servers and cannot read what you write. FREE AND PRO The first note is free, forever. Note1 Pro unlocks all three notes for a monthly subscription. Pro also removes the limit on memo schedules (the free plan allows one). Subscription renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the period. Manage or cancel anytime in your App Store account settings.

About

SnapFocus

Features
Read full description

Spend less time on your phone — and earn your way back in. SnapFocus blocks the apps that eat your day. When you want one back, you don't just tap through a timer: you do push-ups or squats, counted by the camera, before it opens. KEEP A RULE WITH FRIENDS Create a group, share a code, and everyone follows the same limit. You each choose which of your own apps it applies to, and you each keep your own streak. Pick a name and a face your friends will see on the leaderboard. EARN YOUR UNLOCK Set a daily limit, a pause before an app opens, or a workout. Push-ups and squats are counted on the device, so a session is something you did rather than something you waited out. DEEP FOCUS Put everything away for a set stretch. Finished sessions grow plants you keep, and a streak you can see across the week. WHAT WE CANNOT SEE iOS never tells SnapFocus which apps you picked — it hands over an encrypted token that cannot be turned back into an app name, by us or by anyone else. The camera counts your reps on the device: nothing is recorded, and no frame is uploaded. Nobody in a group can see what you blocked, only whether you kept to it. EVERYTHING STAYS ESCAPABLE There is no punishment here. You can give up a workout, leave a group, or change a rule. The point is to make the easy path a little harder, not to lock you out of your own phone. Requires Screen Time permission to block apps, and camera permission only if you turn on a workout challenge. SUBSCRIPTION Premium is optional — every blocking feature is free and always will be. It is sold as an auto-renewing subscription, or as a one-time Lifetime purchase that never renews. The subscription periods, any free trial, and the price in your local currency are shown in the app before you confirm. A subscription renews automatically unless auto-renewal is turned off at least 24 hours before the current period ends; manage or cancel it in your Apple Account settings.
