'*Just*' when used with a little pause and emphasis after it means that someone has, moments ago, completed an activity. Sometimes it can also be said a little slower to be used as an indirect apology to someone when a person has finally done something that was supposed to have been done earlier.
Examples:
-I *just* texted you their phone number!
(Running late, talking on the phone). -He *just* finished his nap and we're on our way out the door now!

Just sayin'
"Just sayin'" is a conversation ender used by people as a way to get the last word in a conversation. As it uses 'just,' it also can be almost be seen as a sort of apology for the previous statements, which were likely strong and opinionated.
-Do you want to go to Alex's party now?
-No! I *don't* want to go to to his party because he's a total jerk. Just sayin'!
