Only for iPhone

iPhone
Phone in hand, message half-typed? Open Almost Texted first. Say it here, take a 90-second pause, and see the urge change. Nothing is ever sent.
You decided not to contact your ex. Then the moment comes: phone in hand, message half-typed.
Almost Texted is for that moment.
RESCUE, IN THREE STEPS
• Say it. Rate how strong the urge is and type what you were about to send. It stays in the app. It is never sent.
• Pause. Hold the wax drop and breathe with the ring for 90 seconds.
• Close. Rate the urge again and choose what happens now. If you reach out anyway, log it honestly. Nothing resets.
Rescue is free, every time, with no limit.
WHAT CALM-YOU WORKED OUT COMES BACK
The next day, look back at the moment and write one line for next time. That line comes back during a later pause, when you need it.
SEE THE EVIDENCE
Two small rows of wax drops show how strong the urge was before and after each pause. Over time, Pattern shows when the urge comes and what sets it off.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• Stored on your iPhone and in your own iCloud, encrypted. We can't read it. You can turn iCloud sync off.
• No account, no ads, no tracking.
• Optional Face ID lock.
• Nothing about the other person is ever asked for.
ALWAYS ONE TAP AWAY
Open Rescue from a lock-screen or home-screen widget, a Shortcut or the Action Button.
NO STREAKS
No day counters and no streaks to lose. Your promise has an end date, and you can keep it going when it ends.
FULL ACCESS
One-time purchase, no subscription. Unlocks Pattern, Reflections after the first, letters, and your lines coming back in every pause. Rescue stays free.
Almost Texted is a self-help tool, not therapy or medical care. If you are in crisis, contact local emergency services.
