Focus Matrix is a smart personal organizer based on the so-called Eisenhower box, a personal productivity strategy created by Dwight Eisenhower, the 34th President of the United States. The principle uses a special priority matrix that helps break your tasks into several groups depending on their urgency and importance, and work your way through your daily agenda in the most efficient way possible. This app will help you focus on what really matters, and get rid of the things that can be painlessly delegated to others or postponed indefinitely until you have time for them. Task Organization • Two views: Matrix and List of Sections • “Unsorted” section to hold incoming tasks until you categorize them • Move tasks between sections using drag-and-drop • Maximize sections to focus on specific content Task Scheduling and Reminders • Assign due dates to tasks • Set “All day task” for whole-day planning • Create recurring tasks with customizable repeat options • Set reminders to never miss an important deadline Advanced Task Features • Automatically move a task to 'Urgent' as its deadline approaches, with timely notifications • Automatically move a task to 'Urgent' when a linked task is completed • Track task creation and completion dates for detailed management • Paste multiline text as individual tasks to speed up input Sorting, Filtering, and Tags • Sort tasks by title, due date, or manually • Use tags to organize tasks effectively • Filter tasks by tags and statuses (completed/uncompleted) • Save and quickly apply custom filter presets for easy navigation Synchronization and Integration • Sync data across all your devices • Sync tasks with Calendar • Integrate with Be Focused*: Sync tasks between apps and start timer in Be Focused directly from Focus Matrix Exporting and Reporting • Export task lists to PDF or print them for offline use • Configurable statistics and reports for completed tasks Security and Privacy • Password and Face ID protection for secure task management Platform Compatibility • Fully available for Mac and iOS Pro Version Features • Cross-device synchronization • Synchronization of tasks with Calendar • Integration with Be Focused*: Sync tasks between apps and start timer in Be Focused directly from Focus Matrix Focus Matrix is free to download and use forever.

習慣アプリは、過去の記録を見せてくれます。 未来メーターは、未来を見せます。 今日チェックした習慣が「このまま1年続いたら、どうなるか」を、その場で計算して1枚で出します。 ■ 3つの軸で、混ぜずに見せる ・時間 — 勉強や読書は「1年で◯時間」 ・お金 — 自炊などの節約は「1年で◯円」 ・継続 — 筋トレやストレッチは「1年で◯日」 画面を横にスワイプするだけで軸が切り替わります。時間とお金を足し算するような、単位の混ざった数字は出しません。 ■ グラフは「これまで → 今日 → 1年後」 これまでの積み重ねの線の先に、今日のペースで届く1年後が点線で伸びます。今日チェックするたび、未来の線が伸びるのが見えます。 ■ 数字は予測ではありません あなたが決めた週の回数と、直近28日の実績。使うのはこの2つだけの掛け算です。だから外れても嘘になりません。 ■ サボっても責めません できなかった日に、0%や減点を突きつけることはしません。続けた分だけが積み上がります。 ■ 習慣づくりは2ステップ カテゴリ(勉強系・お金節約系・運動系・生活系)を選んで、週に何回やるかを決めるだけ。1回あたりの時間や金額は、テンプレから選んでも、自分で細かく決めても構いません。 ■ 記録は端末の中だけ アカウント登録は不要。記録が外部に送られることはありません。 ■ 無料でずっと使えます 記録・チェック・1年後の換算は、これからもすべて無料です。 未来メーターPro(月¥300 / 年¥1,800・最初の1か月無料)で増えるのは、あなた自身の記録の分析だけ: ・習慣化まであと何日か ・つまずきやすいのは何日目か ・先にどの習慣を固めると続きやすいか プライバシーポリシー: https://joel-1212.github.io/mirai-meter-site/#privacy 利用規約(EULA): https://joel-1212.github.io/mirai-meter-site/#terms
