Too many ideas, no idea where to start? Drop them all in the jar, spin, and let it pick your next one. Your Spark cheers you on - no streak guilt, ever.
Too many ideas. No idea where to start.
Project Jar is for people whose problem was never coming up with things to make - it's picking one. Drop every idea into the jar, and when you finally have a free evening, let the jar decide.
CAPTURE IT BEFORE IT'S GONE
• Add an idea in seconds - type it, or hold the mic and just talk
• Tag it: music, app, video, writing, or categories you invent
• Attach photos and reference shots
• Search everything you've ever thrown in
LET FATE PICK
• Tap spin and watch your Spark pull a slip out of the jar
• Seven animated draw scenes to pick from
• Exclude the categories you're not in the mood for today
• The decision is made. Go make something.
ONE IDEA, ONE PAGE
• Every idea opens as a document - notes, headings, bullets, photos and to-dos in one flow
• Check things off as you go
• Turn an idea into a real project the moment it's ready
A COMPANION THAT NEVER GUILT-TRIPS YOU
• Your Spark lives in a little room and reacts to what you make
• Disappear for a week? It gets more encouraging, not less. This is the opposite of a guilt app.
• Unlock new looks, posters and postcards the more you create
• After 30 quiet days it moves out - and you can always bring it home
TRACK SHOWING UP, NOT OUTPUT
• A GitHub-style activity grid across every project you touch
• Tap any day to see exactly what you did
• Streaks that celebrate and never scold
YOURS, AND ONLY YOURS
• No account, no sign-up, no ads, no tracking
• Everything lives on your iPhone
• Optional daily reminder, entirely local
OPTIONAL AI
Voice capture works the moment you install it, using Apple's built-in speech recognition - free, no setup, nothing to configure. If you want Whisper-grade transcription plus automatic parsing of a rambling voice note into a clean, tagged idea, there are two ways to get it:
1. Bring your own keys — paste your OpenAI and Anthropic API keys in Settings. Free in the app; you pay your provider directly.
2. Subscribe to ProjectJar AI — no keys, no setup.
