What's in ThoughtTrack 1.0
The launch version focuses on fast capture, calm recall, and native Apple integrations that make the app useful before your thought disappears.
Voice-First Capture
Press, speak, release. Transcription runs on-device, and text capture is always one tap away when speaking is not practical.
Apple Watch Support
Capture from your wrist with the same fast flow, then keep everything synced back to iPhone for review and resurfacing.
Context-Aware Resurfacing
ThoughtTrack considers focus mode, activity, calendar, audio route, and location before bringing a spark back.
Thought Bridges
On-device NLP reveals related ideas across time, so you can rediscover patterns and connections you would not search for manually.
System Integrations
Use Siri, Shortcuts, widgets, the Action Button, and Control Center to make capture frictionless anywhere.
Privacy by Default
Audio, transcription, and semantic processing stay on-device. Sync runs through your own private iCloud account.
How It Works
1. Capture instantly
Hold to record on iPhone, Apple Watch, Control Center, Siri, or the Action Button. Your thought is saved before the moment slips.
2. Let it drift
ThoughtTrack holds onto your spark without nagging you. No folders, no maintenance, and no reminder spam.
3. Resurface with context
When time, location, focus mode, and activity line up, the right thought comes back at the right moment.
Speak. Save. Done.
Hold the button and speak. ThoughtTrack transcribes on-device, keeps the capture flow nearly invisible, and lets you get back to whatever you were doing.
- โ On-device voice transcription
- โ Apple Watch capture from your wrist
- โ Action Button, Siri, widgets, and Shortcuts


Resurface when the moment is right.
Most reminders interrupt. ThoughtTrack waits. It looks at context like focus mode, activity, audio route, calendar, and location before deciding whether now is useful.
- โ Context-aware timing
- โ Respects Focus modes and calendar
- โ Learns from what you actually engage with
Connect the dots you didn't know were there.
Thought Bridges uses on-device NLP to surface semantic relationships between your thoughts, so old ideas can reappear with surprising relevance.
It runs with Apple's NaturalLanguage framework on your device. No thought content is sent to our servers for analysis.

Built on trust.
Permissions are requested in context with plain-language explanations. Notifications, motion, calendar, and location are optional layers that make resurfacing smarter without blocking core capture.
All transcription and semantic processing run on-device. No audio or thought content is sent to Old Dog Devs servers. iCloud sync uses your own private Apple account.
Free to start. More with Pro.
ThoughtTrack includes a free tier for getting the habit started, plus a 7-day Pro trial for unlimited capture, iCloud sync, and the full resurfacing toolkit.
