BrainDrain: 1 Minute Journal

About this app

Your head is full. Give it a minute. BrainDrain is the brain dump that finishes the job. Drain your racing thoughts, sort what you can control from what you can't, and turn every thought into action. Or let it go. Chaos to calm, one minute at a time. HOW IT WORKS • Drain: start the timer and pour it all out for 60 seconds. Type it or speak it. No prompts, no blank page staring back. Just a deadline. Let it all out. • Sort: swipe each thought where it belongs. Within my control, need someone's help, outside my control, or just a happy thought. • Act: turn a thought into a reminder or a calendar event, send it to someone who can help, or let it go for good. BUILT FOR BUSY, ANXIOUS, or ADHD-WIRED MINDS • One minute is the feature. Short enough to actually do, bounded enough to feel safe. • Every thought gets a decision. BrainDrain doesn't file your worries away. Each one lands somewhere: an action, a person, or a deliberate letting go. • Sorting by control is the calm. What you can act on becomes action. What you can't, you release. NEW IN 2.0 • Voice drain: speak your thoughts hands-free • Insights: on-device intelligence surfaces your patterns, what keeps coming back, and what you've let go • A new Home that shows what needs you and what's just for you • Progress: your week, month, and year at a glance • Widgets and Control Center: start a drain from anywhere • Siri and Shortcuts: say "Start a brain drain" and it's running • Share a thought over iMessage when someone else is the answer • A refreshed design, ready for iOS 26 & 27, on iPhone and iPad BRAINDRAIN PLUS Sixty seconds a day is always included.
