Rocket 135 is a productivity tool that uses a brilliant strategy to make you do all the things you want to do by following a concept shared by The Muse. The 1-3-5 rule: On any given day, assume that you can only accomplish one big thing, three medium things, and five small things, and narrow down your to-do list to those nine things. Like it or not, you only have so many hours in the day, and you’re only going to get a finite number of things done. Forcing yourself to choose a 1-3-5 list means the things you accomplish will be the things you chose to do — rather than what happened to get done. The point is, prioritisation works. So, give this strategy a try and spend the rest of your days this week focusing on the few things that matter most. You will be surprised by how much you actually get done.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: One Big Thing at none against Rocket 135's 6. One Big Thing also leads on ads (none vs shown). Rocket 135's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 17.6). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
