Your head is full. BrainHD makes it lighter. BrainHD is a to-do list and planner built for ADHD brains. Most task apps ask you to organise everything before they help. BrainHD does the opposite: you talk, and it does the organising. HOW IT WORKS • Dump it. Hold the mic and say whatever is on your mind, in any order. Ramble. Or tap to type. No folders, no categories, no deciding first. • It gets smaller. BrainHD turns what you said into small, startable tasks, estimates how long each one really takes, and notices the one you have been avoiding. • One next move. Today shows a single thing to do next, with the first physical step spelled out. Tap Start for a calm focus mode that counts up, not down. • Feel it count. Every finished task earns XP. Levels have names, like Finding your rhythm and Building momentum, so progress feels like somewhere you are getting to. • Watch your city grow. Every task you finish becomes a building in your own world. Quick tasks become cottages. Deep work becomes towers. The thing you avoided for weeks becomes a monument. Movement breaks become parks. Over time, your finished work stands up as a city you can walk around in. BUILT FOR HOW YOUR BRAIN WORKS • No red overdue badges and no guilt. A missed day is a fresh start, not a broken streak. • Stuck? Rescue mode shrinks the task or helps you find what is really in the way. • Plan the whole day around the time and energy you actually have. • Gentle nudges at the right moment, a few a day, never a pile. • Close the day in ninety seconds so you are not carrying it all night. • Talk in your own language. BrainHD understands it. • Home screen and lock screen widgets for quick capture and your next task. • Twelve colour environments, light and dark, and full support for Reduce Motion. YOUR DATA No ads. No tracking. We never sell your data. Your recordings are used only to turn what you say into tasks. You can ask us to delete everything at any time. BrainHD includes an optional self-check about attention. It is not a diagnosis and cannot rule anything in or out. If you have questions about ADHD, talk to a doctor. BRAINHD PLUS BrainHD Plus unlocks the full app and starts with a 7-day free trial. After the trial it is billed monthly or yearly. Prices are shown in the app before you subscribe.

About

LLM Studio Go

Read full description

LLM Studio Go brings local AI to iPhone and iPad. Choose a model, download it, and run it on your device without creating an account. NEW: VIDEO (BETA) • Video studio: describe an idea and get a short vertical video. A chat model writes the script, a speech model narrates it, music plays underneath, and image and video models create the scenes and the cover. • Video from text: FastWan models turn a description into a short clip. Each model shows the memory it needs; video needs a device with at least 6 GB of memory. • Video generation is in beta: it is slow, uses a lot of battery and heats the device. AUDIO AND VOICE • Voice conversation: speak to a chat model and hear its answer, with live captions. Speech recognition, replies and speech run on your device. • Music and sound effects: describe a mood, instruments or a scene and get a track of up to 2 minutes. • Songs with vocals: write your own lyrics or let a local model write them, then pick a style and a singer. • Natural speech: turn text into speech in more than 30 languages with several voices. • A built-in player with waveform, speed, repeat and lock-screen controls. Save tracks as WAV or share them. LOCAL AI • Chat with supported language and vision models. Attach PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, text files or images to a conversation. • Generate images with compatible diffusion models. • Browse GGUF and MLX models, import your own files, and manage downloads. • Keep conversations on your device and use models offline after downloading them. • Optionally enable DuckDuckGo web search and reading of linked pages for answers with sources. • Measure model performance and, if you choose, enable an OpenAI-compatible API for devices on your trusted local network. Model availability and speed depend on your device, its free storage, and the model you choose. Audio models are large downloads; songs need an iPhone or iPad with at least 12 GB of memory and are created while the app is open. Internet access is needed to browse and download models. Web search and link reading are off by default; when enabled, search queries go to DuckDuckGo and page requests go to the websites visited. The model catalog, the model picker and the audio generation screen may show ads. An optional one-time “Remove Ads Forever” purchase removes those ads and can be restored with the same Apple Account. All local AI features are available without the purchase.
