What is Untangle?
Untangle is a daily journal for people whose thoughts keep looping. Each entry takes about two minutes: you write free text and pick one of five mood levels, with no streaks, scoring, or pressure. Over time you can scroll back through your history, grouped by date, to see what you wrote and how you felt.
The app is aimed at overthinkers who want a simple place to get thoughts out of their heads and a gentle way to notice recurring patterns. Your first Weekly Insights summary is free once you have written five entries. Pro members then receive one AI summary each week covering recurring themes, mood patterns, and a single reflective prompt for the week ahead.
What sets Untangle apart is its focus on privacy and restraint. Entries are encrypted at rest and locked to your account so only you can read them. Entries are sent to AI models only to create your own tags and weekly summary, and according to the page, those models keep nothing and your words are never used to train models.
Free accounts include 5 entries a week. Pro is priced at ₹399 per month for unlimited entries and Weekly Insights.

By the time they get halfway through the video they've already given the algorithm the 50-60-70% watch time and then you plug the app.
Bury the Product Reveal Past 50% Watch Time — Let the Algorithm See Engagement Before the Sales Pitch
TikTok's algorithm rewards completion rate. If a video feels like an ad from the first second, viewers skip and the algorithm buries it. Joseph's template: lead with relatable content that earns the watch time, then introduce the app naturally at the 50%+ mark as a solution to the pain point just demonstrated. The ADHD hack TikToks exemplify this — genuine tips first, app mention last, delivered to an audience already nodding along.
If you take study apps you can target physics AI, chemistry AI, math AI — these are different keywords but they are related to students. That gives me an opportunity after creating one app to quickly jump into the closely related keywords...For some apps I basically copy like 90% of the code which gives me the instant time for the building.
Cluster Adjacent Keywords In One Audience So Each New App Reuses The Last
Max maps adjacent keywords around a single audience (e.g. students: physics AI, chemistry AI, math AI), so one built app becomes a template he respins for each sibling keyword. ASO learnings compound, code reuses, and what looks like 28 separate apps is really a few base templates fanned out across keyword clusters.
There's a play for whatever you're stuck on.
