Alotis vs TimeBarX

Have you ever made a detailed schedule for the day, only for it to become almost completely useless when things don't go as planned early on? Maybe you were running 20 minutes late and wished you could just "push" everything else in your day to be 20 minutes later, without having to manually adjust every little thing? You can have that and more with Alotis! Alotis was designed with the unpredictability of modern life in mind and makes it easy to keep the shape of your schedule when plans change. This lets you feel safe planning your day in advance while knowing you have the flexibility to adjust your schedule if needed Features include: - Dynamic scheduling that automatically pushes back back tasks when times overlap - Todo list that you can use to estimate future tasks and schedule them for later - Routines for tasks that you do regularly - Goals for keeping track of your long term objectives - Timer view so you can know exactly how much time you have until your next task - Customizable task colors

TimeBarX puts a countdown where you’ll actually see it - a full-screen progress ring, Live Activities on the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island, and Home Screen widgets. Glance at your time remaining without opening the app or breaking focus. Set a timer with the slider, pick an end time, or type in plain English. “25 minutes”, “1h30m”, “2:00 PM” - just type and go.
