## What is Progress?

Progress is a goal tracker and planner with to-do lists, scheduling, and a focus timer. Break down goals, set personal OKRs, organize tasks, plan your studies and work, track reading, and schedule reviews. With a calendar, reminders, recurring check-ins, and a Pomodoro timer, bring structure to goal management, time management, habit building, and project planning.

【Goal Breakdown & Measurable Progress】

Turn big plans into concrete actions with unlimited levels of subgoals.

• Unlimited levels: Break goals into projects, phases, and tasks, then divide them further as needed.
• Progress roll-up: Subgoal progress automatically updates parent goals. Choose simple average, weighted average, highest progress, or lowest progress to track each phase and the overall plan.
• Goal weights: Assign weights to key goals to calculate overall progress. Ideal for personal OKRs and project management.

Choose a tracking method for each goal to measure progress and record your focus time.

• Completion tracking: Mark tasks as complete when done.
• Quantity tracking: For a 100-page reading goal, log the pages you read each time to build progress.
• Time tracking: For a 10-hour study goal, use the focus timer or add records manually.
• Scheduled activity tracking: For a goal of 3 practice sessions, each completed scheduled activity automatically adds one session to your progress.

【Scheduling & To-Do Lists】

Plan short-term actions for long-term goals. Organize tasks in list, Kanban, or Eisenhower Matrix views, set priorities, and coordinate your time with the calendar timeline.

• Scheduling: Schedule activities for goals or create standalone to-dos for study, work, and daily life.
• Reminders: Set reminders for goals and activities to keep important plans on track.
• Recurrence rules: Plan recurring tasks, daily check-ins, and study reviews with flexible repeat patterns, including Ebbinghaus-based spaced repetition.
• Calendar view: See schedules and focus records together to plan around existing commitments.
• Eisenhower Matrix: Sort tasks by importance and urgency to decide what comes first.
• Kanban view: View tasks in columns for easy browsing and organization.
• Flexible sorting: Sort by date, title, priority, and more to quickly find your next task.

【Focus Timer & Time Estimates】

Record your actual focus time and stay on task with the Pomodoro Technique and app blocking. Link sessions to goals to estimate the focus time still needed and plan ahead.

• Focus timer: Use a stopwatch or countdown to study, read, or work at your own pace.
• Break timer: Alternate focus and rest with the Pomodoro Technique.
• Goal linking: Link focus records to goals to track time invested and add progress to time-based goals.
• Time estimates: Estimate the focus time needed to reach a goal based on current progress and time already recorded.
• App blocking: Block selected apps during focus sessions to reduce distractions.
• Calendar timeline: Compare planned activities with actual focus records, review daily time use, and adjust future plans.

【Quick Access & Data Management】

• Widgets: View goal progress and schedules on your Home Screen or desktop.
• iCloud sync: View and update plans across devices using the same iCloud account.
• Data backup: Save and restore records with local and cloud backups.

Whether you are preparing for an exam, completing a course, reading regularly, or finishing a project, start by breaking down your first goal.

Turn what you want to do into progress you can see.

### 1/5 — 强制更新却不持续维护的诈骗软件

*2026-09-03, version 2.0.37*

一大堆bug也不修复了，残缺的功能也不更新了。什么不负责任的诈骗犯开发者。早知道就不买了。

### 1/5 — 完全無法從1.0遷到2.0

*2026-07-06, version 2.0.37*

我被騙了60元解鎖
果然阿陸靠不住

### 1/5 — 请尽快更新2.0的计时功能啊啊啊啊啊啊！

*2026-04-26, version 2.0.37*

很喜欢这个任务和计时功能，但2.0一直没更新，用testflight又经常崩溃！原本很喜欢这个app，但这让我很难受，

### 3/5 — 手機和ipad不能自動實時更新？？

*2026-02-26, version 2.0.37*

我想知道是真的沒這個實時同步的功能，還是是我沒有找到正確的用法

### 5/5 — 功能符合我的需求

*2025-11-02, version 2.0.3*

（1）將大目標🎯拆解為小目標，看見完成進度的%數。
（2）設定開始、結束日期，能看到目標的進度及所剩時間誰先誰後，能使人會有想趕進度的感覺。🤭

### 5/5 — 喜欢

*2025-07-27, version 1.8.3*

很实用的计划app，各家都尝试了一遍最终还是进度条。有个小需求，不知道能不能出一个多选一键归档的功能，有很多过了当前阶段的任务列在任务栏里看着难受，希望能够快速隐藏。除此之外还希望有那种每日需要打卡到一定量任务可以一键设置日期（当日到当日），现在得批量导入然后一个一个调整。

### 5/5 — 能不能出一个倒计时的专注组件

*2025-07-26, version 1.8.3*

软件又简洁又好用，涵盖了很多需要的功能，我很喜欢。许愿能出一些好用的小组件，真的真的很需要一个按一下就开始倒计时的小组件，可以的话再出一个带秒数的翻页时钟组件 这样我就能少下一点杂七杂八的软件啦。但是总体来说真的很棒！五星推荐！

### 5/5 — 讚

*2025-07-07, version 1.8.3*

跪求繁體中文🥺

### 5/5 — 可以加一個好用的功能默

*2025-06-27, version 1.8.3*

之前在別的程式有看過只要打*明天* *下星期一*等等有關的時間詞就會自動設定好在那個時間，希望在2.0之後的版本可以考慮加入新功能

### 4/5 — 请提供将专注记录导出为CSV的功能

*2025-02-24, version 1.8.0*

非常非常需要
