Thanks, Brain
Write it down. Let it go.
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Some thoughts don’t deserve rent-free housing. Write one down, then destroy it in a satisfying way.
Your brain means well. It just keeps handing you the same thought at the worst possible times.
Thanks, Brain is the polite way to take that thought off its hands. Write it down — get it out of your head and onto paper. Then destroy the paper. Really destroy it: with your hands, with physics, with sound and feel.
SIX WAYS FOR A THOUGHT TO GO
• Shred it — pull it through the shredder, strip by strip
• Slice it — swipe clean through it, then slice the pieces again
• Burn it — hold a finger to it and fire catches right there
• Crumple it — scrunch it into a ball and flick it away
• Dissolve it — brush it into dust
• Release it — flick it into the night sky and watch it become a star, exactly where you sent it
Or tap “Surprise me” and let the app choose.
THE REGULARS
Some thoughts come back. When one does, give the worry itself a nickname — “The Replayer,” “The 3am Accountant” — and greet it like the old acquaintance it is. The app keeps gentle count of every send-off. Only the nickname is kept, never a word of what you wrote.
NOTHING IS SAVED
No account. No sync. No server. Nothing you write is stored, sent, or even remembered by the keyboard — the app blocks keyboard learning by default, keeps third-party keyboards out, and hides your words from the app switcher. The thought exists on your screen, and then it doesn’t. That’s the whole point.
Everything in the app is free. There’s a tip jar, escalating from a gumball to a weekend at the beach, if you’d like to keep one very grateful developer going.
Write it down. Let it go. Thanks, brain — anyway.
