Flow Todo

Flow Todo is a calm, rhythmic to-do app for people who care more about doing the work than decorating it. It is built around a simple idea: most task apps make you fight with checkboxes, badges, and red numbers. Flow Todo does the opposite. Tasks move like water — gently surfacing what matters now, quietly holding what can wait, and tracking the time you actually spend in deep focus. If you have ever wanted a to-do list that feels less like an inbox and more like a breath, this is the one. — THE RHYTHM — Flow Todo organises your day into three natural currents: • Urgent — what truly needs you today • Flowing — what's in motion this week • Backlog — quiet work waiting for its moment You decide what belongs where. The app never nags, never piles on red badges, and never tries to gamify your guilt. — FOCUS SESSIONS — Tap any task to begin a focus session. A gentle timer counts the minutes you spend in deep work, builds your daily and weekly streak, and feeds your stats so you can see where your time actually goes — by category, by tag, by week. No leaderboards. No streaks shaming. Just an honest mirror of your work. — DESIGNED LIKE A SANCTUARY — Every screen is shaped by water. Soft gradients, quiet animations, calm haptics, and a typography that breathes. Flow Todo is the kind of app you keep open — not because it shouts, but because it doesn't. Built for iPhone and iPad, with a sidebar layout on larger screens that lets you keep your stream, your focus session, and your stats in view at the same time. — PRIVACY AS A FEATURE — Flow Todo collects nothing. No analytics. No ad SDKs. No crash trackers. No accounts. Your tasks live on your device — and, if you opt in to Flow Pro, in your own private iCloud database under your Apple ID. The developer cannot see, recover, or sell your data, ever. Read the full privacy policy at: https://www.magnusnorth.com/privacy.html#flow-todo — FREE TO USE — The free tier holds up to 6 tasks at a time and works fully offline. — FLOW PRO — Upgrade to Flow Pro to unlock: • Unlimited tasks • iCloud Sync across iPhone and iPad • All future Pro features • Quiet support for an independent developer Flow Pro is available three ways: • Monthly — auto-renewable subscription • Yearly — auto-renewable subscription, the best value • Lifetime — one-time purchase, yours forever Subscriptions automatically renew at the same price and duration unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase. You can manage or cancel at any time in Settings → Apple ID → Subscriptions on your device. Any unused portion of a free trial is forfeited when a paid subscription is purchased.
