Ikiru vs ScrollTax

Ikiru is a simple but powerful app for making lists, keeping notes and setting reminders. It aims to help you live a productive and meaningful life, by enabling you to focus on the things that are most important to you. IKIRU IS VERSATILE Use it to create to do lists, shopping lists, take notes, store contact information, keep track of books to read, or movies to watch... or anything else you'd want to make a list for. IKIRU IS BEAUTIFUL With a clean and easy to use design, choose from over 2000 icons to assign to your lists. IKIRU IS POWERFUL - create lists within lists - assign a due date and reminder to list items - view all items with a due date in one convenient timeline - add a photo to list items - drag and drop to sort list items, or automatically keep a list sorted alphabetically, by modification date, completion date, and more - easily copy or move items from one list to another - mark items incomplete to return them to their original position in the list (this makes lists easy to reuse) - send a list via email, and the receiver can import your list into their copy of Ikiru - view items with due dates on your Apple Watch IKIRU KEEPS YOUR DATA SAFE - automatically back up and sync lists between iOS devices using iCloud - use Touch ID or a custom passcode to protect your information IKIRU HAS PURPOSE The word "ikiru" (ee-kee-roo) means "to live" in Japanese. It's also the title of an Akira Kurosawa film about a man who decides to do something meaningful with his life. Ikiru (the app) is my attempt at doing something meaningful with my life, and hopefully help others live meaningful and productive lives. IKIRU HAS HISTORY In 2010 I released a list-making app called "Paperless". From busy moms to airplane pilots to people who needed a little help remembering things after suffering a brain injury, Paperless has been used by hundreds of thousands of people worldwide. Ikiru is built upon that legacy - incorporating the best ideas from Paperless, greatly improving upon them, and adding big features that people have requested. IKIRU NEEDS LOVE If you find Ikiru useful, please rate and review it in the App Store. Thank you!

Most app blockers run on a schedule. ScrollTax runs on a budget. Every 5 minutes in a taxed app costs 1 point, all day, every day. Earn points back by reading, walking, working out, sleeping and more. Hit zero and your apps lock until you earn more. WHY SCROLLTAX · Willpower not required. Blockers you can snooze get snoozed. ScrollTax gives you a budget instead, so the decision is already made. · Scroll without the guilt. Every minute on your phone is one you already earned with a walk, a chapter or a good night's sleep. · No schedules to set or cheat. The tax is always on, so there's no unblocked window to binge in, and nothing to reconfigure when your day changes. · Habits you actually want. Reading, steps, workouts, sunlight and sleep become the way you pay for your phone, so they happen every day. · Tomorrow remembers today. Go over budget and the overage carries into tomorrow as debt. No more "fresh start" binges. · A lock that holds. ScrollTax uses Apple's own Screen Time enforcement. No dismiss button, no three-tap override. Your phone, on a budget. HOW IT WORKS 1. Pick your apps. Choose the apps to tax with the iOS Screen Time picker: social media, games, news, browsers, anything. 2. Earn tax points. · Reading — 10 min = 1 point · Focus — 10 min = 1 point · Chores — 15 min = 1 point · Work — 60 min = 1 point, tracked by your iPhone Work Focus · Steps — 2,000 steps = 1 point · Workout — 15 min = 1 point · Mindfulness — 10 min = 1 point · Standing — 3 hours = 1 point · Sunlight — 15 min outside = 1 point (Apple Watch) · Sleep — 7+ hours = 2 points, from Apple Health or your Sleep Focus Each source has a daily cap, so no single habit can buy the whole day. 3. Spend your budget. 1 point = 5 minutes in your taxed apps, counted automatically in the background. You also get 30 free grace minutes every day. Hit zero and your apps lock on their own. MEET ZUNŌ A little brain that lives on your Home screen. Its mood follows your balance: bright when you're earning, frazzled when you're scrolling. Poke it, pet it, keep it happy. Prefer a quieter look? Switch to Classic. SESSIONS THAT LOCK Start a Reading, Focus or Chores session and your taxed apps stay locked until you finish. Forgot to stop? The session ends on its own at midnight or after 4 hours. WORK MODE AND SLEEP MODE Add ScrollTax to your iPhone Work or Sleep Focus. While the Focus is on, your taxed apps stay locked and the time counts as work or sleep. When it turns off, they reopen.
