Read full descriptionHide full description
A place for your thoughts, built for simplicity and intentionality. Index allows you to create all the lists you need, so that the crazy idea you got at 4am wont be lost forever. You can save links inside your lists, and it integrates seamlessly with your iPhone, simply use the share button from any app to add something to Index. It also comes with a full task management system, that connects to your lists! Priorities, reminders, recurrence, subtasks, you name it. Don't forget to add the widget to your home screen or a couple of handy buttons to your control center or lock screen ;) Thank you for trying it out, this is my first app here, open to feedback and suggestions (big plans coming up)!
