WHY I BUILT IT

I had quotes I desperately wanted to remember. They all ended up in my notes app, and I never looked at them again. So I built something that quietly puts them back in front of me.

Tobias, maker of Sediment

Save it once. See it again and again.

  1. 1

    Save a line

    A quote, a word you're learning, a thought. Sort it into a layer and add who said it.

  2. 2

    Pick a rhythm

    Every 30 minutes, up to every 4 hours. Sediment swaps the line on your Lock Screen on its own.

  3. 3

    Glance down

    Lines you'd forget come back more often. The ones you know sink deeper and return on Sundays.

LAYERS

Quotes. Vocab. Exam notes.

Sort what you want to keep into layers. Pause a layer when it's not the season for it, and Sediment leaves it alone.

FRAGMENTS

Save a line. Let it settle.

Lines you've seen often sink from Surface to Bedrock, so the ones you'd forget come up more. Pull one back up whenever you want it closer.
