Read full description

Start with the finish, not an endless task list. GoalLane is a personal planner for clear, short-term goals. Define the result you want and when it should be ready, then add the concrete steps that will take you there. Every task belongs to a goal, so today’s work always has a direction. See one path across your active goals: • plan steps by day • see today’s workload and available capacity • spot an overloaded day before promising too much • optionally keep no more than three goals active at once • receive one daily briefing at the time you choose • revisit completed goals and their full step history in the archive Private by design: • no account, advertising, analytics, or app server • keep data only on this iPhone or sync privately through your personal iCloud • protect the app with Face ID, Touch ID, or your device passcode • export and import a portable JSON backup • keep planning with the local copy when you are offline GoalLane does not turn your life into a scoreboard. It helps you choose a finish, make the route realistic, and take the next useful step. Important: data stored only on this iPhone is removed if you delete the app unless you have exported a backup. iCloud sync also syncs deletions and is not a separate backup.
