What it does

Writing your negative thoughts down on a piece of paper and then discarding them can help you find peace. Thought Detox brings this experience to your iPhone, letting you write out your thoughts and then release them — without storing or sending them anywhere.

The website for Thought Detox, an iPhone app for working through negative thoughts published by Dropped Bits.

Work through your most private thoughts, on your most personal device. It's been a tough year, and sometimes all the bad things happening makes it hard for me to recognize all the things I can be grateful for in my life. Thought Detox is a space for working through what’s on your mind, with complete peace of mind. What you write is only for you, and as soon as the “Release This” button is tapped, the text you’ve entered is erased. It’s quick and easy to launch the app and get something off your chest, and the clean, uncluttered design doesn’t distract you from your thoughts. The app itself doesn’t store any personal information, and it uses the trusted Apple Health app to store how often…from thoughtdetox.app
