I meditated for 10 years and lost the habit when I started a business. Six reminders on my phone brought it back, so I built Unthought, a SwiftUI app that nudges you to take mindful moments through the day. An AI video coach guides each one.
Three lessons from shipping it
- Review took over a week to start, then about an hour to approve. I sent a walkthrough of every screen with the submission, and I'd do it again.
- Notification timing was the hardest design problem. Too many nudges and people stop noticing.
- Video loading needed more care than I expected.
It's live now, free for 7 days. Download Unthought on the App Store
If you've never meditated and want to try, we also put together a free meditation course for beginners.
