Glances+, a new way to track your deadlines. Sync your deadlines across Apple devices with support for iPad as well. One thing a calendar app never shows, number of days to an event, never count from one calendar day to another. Glances+ enables people to organize their deadlines and projects efficiently and intuitively. Whether you're a college student or a busy parent, Glances+ helps you sort out your day in a simple and ingenious manner. Glances+ can import events from the Calendar App to increase efficiency and format the events into the Glances+ format. You can also setup Glances in other time zones. For example, setup a Glance for the next Apple Event in California time zone and see it when it will happen in your local time zone. This homegrown app is for everyone, I wanted users to be able to create and input deadlines quickly and easily. I also wanted them to be able to see their deadlines in chronological order. Now, Glance away all your deadlines. Please read our Terms of Service here: https://glancesplus.com/termsofservice

LET IT CHOOSE DoWhat picks one task that fits your current conditions, a small nudge to get started. ONE THING AT A TIME A sticky-note focus screen. Tap to start or pause the timer, swipe up or down to switch tasks. When you finish, tear the note off and keep that feeling of "done."
