Type your worries at night, one line each. Sift counts the repeats and says it plainly: money, six times in two weeks. Seeing it named is different from feeling it.
Your head is full. Get it out.
Sift is a quiet place to brain-dump the worries spinning in your mind — then it does the sorting for you, overnight, on your phone. Wake to a smaller, calmer list.
Type out whatever's nagging you, one line at a time. A money worry. An email you didn't send. A vague fear about work. You don't have to organize it, tag it, or rate your mood. Just get it out of your head — that part alone helps.
Each night, on your phone, Sift quietly distills and sorts what you wrote into three plain piles:
— Act: the things you can actually do something about.
— Noise: the things to let go of.
— Recurring: the worries that keep coming back.
In the morning, you open Sift to a settled list — fewer items, calmer, sorted. The pile that kept you up shrank while you slept.
Over time, Sift notices patterns. "Money has come up 6 times in two weeks." It just shows you the pattern — it never lectures, never advises, never talks back.
WHY SIFT IS DIFFERENT
Nothing you write ever leaves your phone. No account. No sign-in. No cloud. No server. You can put your phone in airplane mode and Sift still sorts your list — because all of it runs on your device. Most worry apps make you triage every thought by hand, or send your private thoughts to a server. Sift does the sorting for you, and keeps it all on the one device it started on.
No streaks. No badges. No points. No guilt for missing a day. You come back because the morning list is calmer, not because an app is nagging you.
Sift helps you sort and let go of worries. It is not therapy, a diagnosis, or medical advice. If you're struggling, please reach out to a professional or a crisis line.
