MindHint
Mark your moments of hesitation.
Hold a question in mind, long-press, and wait for a hint. MindHint won't answer it or decide for you — it records your first reaction and saves that flicker of doubt as a Time Mark.

什么时候用Saying yes — or no?
Long-press and watch yourself: relief, or a quiet resistance.
Still explaining yourself
It won't argue your case. It saves the pause so you can see it later.
The reaction is the answer
The hint isn't an instruction — what matters is what stirs when you read it.
Keep the hesitation
Question, hint, reaction and time — kept together as one Time Mark.
What it won't do.

常见问题What is MindHint?
MindHint is an iOS app for marking moments of hesitation. Hold a question in mind, press and hold for a few seconds, receive a quiet hint, record your first reaction, and save the moment as a Time Mark.
Is MindHint a Book of Answers app?
MindHint has a Book of Answers style ritual, but it is not about receiving a correct answer. It is about noticing your reaction after seeing a hint: relief, resistance, or a clear feeling that you already had a leaning.
Does MindHint make decisions for me?
No. MindHint does not decide, judge your question, or tell you what to do. It creates a quiet pause before you explain yourself.
Who is Kairos?
Kairos is the time metaphor inside MindHint, inspired by the idea of a critical moment. It is not a fortune-telling character. It helps you notice short, honest reactions that are easy to miss.
How is MindHint different from therapy, counseling, or fortune-telling apps?
MindHint is not therapy, not psychological counseling, not an AI counselor, and not a fortune-telling app. It does not diagnose, heal, predict, or advise. It records the hint and your reaction in a moment of hesitation.
Are my questions and Time Marks uploaded to the cloud?
No. MindHint keeps your questions, hint records, and Time Marks on your device. They are not uploaded to a server and are not used for analytics or advertising.
Why press and hold instead of tapping?
Pressing and holding deliberately slows the interaction down. Those few seconds turn a problem from something to solve immediately into something you can notice first.
What is a Time Mark?
A Time Mark is a saved record of a hesitation moment. It can include your question, the hint, your first reaction, and the time, so you can review what you felt then.
When should I open MindHint?
Open it when you are unsure whether to accept something, when you want to refuse but keep explaining yourself, or when your first reaction to a sentence already feels meaningful.
Often the answer is already there — we just need an occasion to admit it. What gets saved isn't the hint; it's the breath you let out, or the frown, when you read it.
No rush for an answer. Mark the pause first.
