Hold That Thought!
Capture passing thoughts fast
$1.99 · Designed for iPhone. Not verified for macOS.
Catch a passing thought in one tap, keep it visible with a timed hold, and find it again in Recent—on iPhone and Apple Watch.
Your brain is great at ideas—not at holding a parking spot, a measurement, a name, or the one detail you need for the next ten minutes.
Hold That Thought is an ephemeral scratchpad for your brain: a quick place for passing thoughts that matter now, but don’t deserve a permanent note, task, or reminder.
SAY IT. HOLD IT. LET IT GO.
Tap once and speak. Your thought stays close for as long as you choose, then gets out of the way when its moment has passed.
GLANCE, DON’T SEARCH
See the active thought in the app, on your Lock Screen, or in a Home Screen widget. No digging through lists when you just need the detail in front of you.
CATCH IT FROM YOUR WRIST
Capture a thought on Apple Watch, review recent thoughts, and keep the current one visible in the Smart Stack.
JUST ENOUGH HISTORY
Recent keeps your latest thoughts available in case you need to look back—without turning your temporary scratchpad into another inbox to manage.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Thoughts stay on your iPhone and paired Apple Watch. Audio isn’t saved. There are no accounts, feeds, or cloud sync.
For measurements, parking spots, names, prices, errands, and every “don’t let me forget this for a minute” moment: catch it now, use it while it matters, and let it go later.
