Brain Dump

Brain Dump is the fastest way to clear your head. Just type what needs doing in plain language – the app automatically detects date, time, range and priority and creates a clean task. Example: "Call the client tomorrow at 3pm urgent" Becomes: task "Call the client", tomorrow at 3:00 PM, priority urgent. While you type, a preview under the input field shows what was understood – before you hit send. UNDERSTANDS YOUR LANGUAGE • Days: today, tomorrow, day after tomorrow, weekdays, "next week", "in 2 days" • Dates the way you type them: "on 11.8", "11.8.2026", "August 5", "Friday", "next Monday" • Rough targets: "end of the week" • Multi-day spans: "24.12 to 2.1", "from 1.8 to 15.8" • Holidays: New Year's Eve, Christmas Eve, New Year • Times in any style: "15:30", "8:30 pm", "3pm", "midnight" • Morning or evening? "8 in the evening" becomes 8:00 PM, "3 in the afternoon" becomes 3:00 PM • Ranges: "from 6 to 10 pm", "18–22" – even across midnight • Durations become end times: "2 pm for 2 hours" • Priorities: "urgent", "important", "!" – and "someday" for things that can wait VOICE INSTEAD OF KEYBOARD • "Hey Google, open capture in Brain Dump" – the app starts right in the input field • Dictate a task instead of typing – words like "all day" or "no time" are understood too REPEATING TASKS • Write "every Monday", "daily" or "every 2 weeks" – the app gets it • Several days at once: "Mondays and Fridays", "weekdays", "every weekend" • Daily, weekly, monthly, yearly – with a custom interval • No rhythm fits? Pick individual days in the calendar – one task, several fixed dates • Ticked off or the date has passed: the task moves itself to the next occurrence instead of sitting on "overdue" CALENDAR • Optional calendar view inside the app: a month to browse, the selected day's tasks below • If you want, the app writes dated tasks into its own "Brain Dump" calendar on your phone – your other appointments stay untouched • Both are switchable and off by default SHARE A SINGLE APPOINTMENT • Send one task to another person – the dentist appointment to your partner, say • It travels as a calendar entry and lands straight in their calendar, even without this app • The other way round works too: tap a shared calendar file and pick Brain Dump • Only that one task is shared – never the whole list. The app sends nothing by itself; you decide whether and to whom REMINDERS • A local notification when something is due – no server, no push service • You decide how early: on time, 15 minutes, an hour or a day ahead • Adjustable per task as well MORE • Five colours to choose from: violet, blue, green, amber, rose • Attach photos from gallery or camera – they stay on the device • A notes field for an address, phone number or context • Labels with their own colour and icon, filter the list by them • Search across titles and notes • History: completed tasks are kept and can be restored • Overdue one-offs can tick themselves off if you want • Home-screen widget: your next tasks plus a quick-add button • Backup: export everything to a file and restore it • Sorts itself by date, grouped into time sections • Card or compact list view, light and dark mode BUILT ACCESSIBLE • After saving you feel a short pulse and hear and see what was understood • "Done" and "Delete" are separate, named buttons on every task – directly reachable with TalkBack • Times can be typed instead of set on a clock face • If you have animations turned off, you get none • German and English, fully translated down to the date format PRIVATE • Tasks and photos stay on your device – no servers, no cloud, no account, no tracking, no ads • The app does not even hold the permission to access the internet – you can verify that under "Permissions" in the store • Only what you actively use: microphone for dictation, camera or gallery when attaching a photo, calendar only if you enable the sync For everyone who wants to capture thoughts quickly without clicking through forms.
