Excellent effective minimalist time management system
A well executed app for Mark Forster's Autofocus time management system. I've long wondered why his system is not particularly well known. It really works. I've used Autofocus methodology to great effect for years on paper and am very grateful to learn of this digital version. Syncs seamlessly with the macos desktop app. The most skillful part of the system is that addresses one's 'psychological readiness' to do a task; something that is entirely missing from other approaches. In short, if the goal is to actually accomplish tasks, use this app.

Game changer
Great method, with a simple and elegant implementation here that goes with me all day.
Would love for the option to clear all selections for starting a new day instead of manually removing them one by one.

Excellent
I use Mark Forster’s FV method which is the only thing I’ve ever found that actually works for me (it’s amazing how good it feels to get tasks DONE that have hung around in previous systems for years). However I struggled to find an app that worked with this system (I wanted the portability of a digital system, but nothing fit). After downloading and deleting about 50 apps I found Dalo. Perfect! Although the ability to hide things until later is not part of the original method it’s just the tweak I need. Thanks developer

At last !
Nice to see someone build a decent task manager app that properly supports Mark Forsters various task management systems 😀
These systems can be highly effective and work in a very different way to gtd. I suggest giving it a go if you have not so far.
The app works pretty well and provides for all the key functions as needed. There are a few small rough edges and some things that could be added to make life even easier, but overall good stuff!
The iPad app doesn’t look as good as the iPhone app but works just as well.
I hope the developer remains active on this project and keeps it alive and improving
Why not give it a crack!
⚠️NOTE: website feedback/contact form does not work when following link from the app

Task manager efficace
Dalo est a la fois minimaliste et suffisamment complet. Ce que j'adore : la possibilité d'avancer sur une tâche, et en la cochant de la renvoyer en fin de liste. Cela permet d'avancer sur des projets par roulement. Tout est organisé selon sa position dans la liste : en debut de liste ce qui n'a pas avancé depuis un moment et donc qu'il faut soit traiter soit éliminer. En fin de liste, ce qui est frais : les dernières idées, les urgences, les projets qui viennent d'avancer. Ajoutez à cela les sous-taches, la programmation à un horzire precis, et les listes personnalisées, vous avez un outil complet et utilisable de manière intuitive. Le truc pour que ça marche : ne pas surcharger les listes, ne mettre dedans que ce sur quoi on s'engage à court terme.

Liste de tâches minimaliste et originale
Cette app joue sur des ressorts psychologiques pour nous faire avancer :
- peu importe si la tâche est « impressionnante » : le système des étapes nous pousse à y travailler, même un tout petit peu, en ne nous obligeant pas à terminer la tâche en une fois
- la revue quotidienne de toutes les tâches se fait naturellement, et m’évite de « stocker » des tâches que je ne vois même plus comme dans Things 3
- terminer une page de tâches (8 items) permet d’archiver la page, c’est presque un jeu
Une requête : une minuterie type Pomodoro (ou un partage vers une app qui le permet) serait un plus.

Great Mark Forster AutoFocus Implementation
Been using this for driving an international adoption, personal todos, building a nonprofit, etc. This simplifies and lets you cut to the core of what needs doing.
Response from developer
Thank you very much for your review.
Digital autofocus method!
I've enjoyed Mark's books & productivity methods for many years. Glad to finally see a neat, minimalist digital implementation that rivals the paper version. The instructions on the method are good but the app navigation could be a little clearer. Also please change the color of the Search bar to something that mimics the palette of the app! Overall great job!
Edited 05/25: Thanks to the developer for reaching out & even modifying the Search bar color! I use this app constantly - being able to see the number of times I've worked on a project or task helps keep me motivated. Knowing that a completed page gets saved & logged gives me a nice record of my accomplishments!

Thank you very much for a great review and for using the app. The search bar colour has been fixed in a recent release and I would be very happy to make the app navigation clearer for yourself and for all users. So, if it’s not too much trouble, what in particular could be improved regarding the app navigation? Thanks again.
