Tap a line, get a card

No list to browse, no plan to make. Say how things stand, and it hands you one specific thing you could start in the next minute — and a sentence on why that one.

One thing, spelled out

How long it takes, whether it costs anything, indoors or out — it's all on the card. You can also just say "I have 15 minutes".

Push back on it

Swipe for another, or point it somewhere: lighter, don't want to leave the house, free, something completely different.

Come back and tap once

No streak to keep and nothing to break. Tap "done" when you're done. How many you got through this week is yours alone to see.

Late at night, it stops asking you to be productive

Past the hour you set, it does one thing: three steps to close out the day, and then it says goodnight.

Look back

Name the hardest moment of the day. Written down, it stops circling.

Tomorrow's first thing

One is enough. You'll see it on the home screen in the morning, and tapping it clears it.

Wind down

A one- or two-minute thing to do, and then — you can lock the screen.

1,200+ things specific enough to actually start

Not "exercise" or "read more". More like untangle every charging cable in the flat, or walk to the corner shop and study the drinks you've never tried — specific enough that you know your next move the moment you finish reading the card.

Runs with the wifi off

There is no server. The whole library ships inside the app, and it works in airplane mode on a plane, on a train, anywhere.

Nothing to sign up for

No account, no email, no password. Nothing to restore except your App Store purchase.

Nothing measures you

No analytics SDK, no ad SDK, no tracking. The App Store privacy label says no data collected, and for once that is literally true.

It gets closer to you

Say a card was fine or not great, and you'll see less of that kind. That judgement happens on your phone and stays there.
