Your brain isn't broken. Your to-do list is. Trusted by 20,000+ professionals — including people on teams at leading companies — to get more done by focusing on one task at a time. Most task apps hand you an endless list and expect you to guess how long any of it takes. If you have ADHD, that guess is the whole problem. Forget works differently. Every task gets a duration. As you add them, Forget adds them up and shows you the one number that actually matters: the time you'll actually finish. PLAN A DAY THAT FITS Give each task a time estimate and watch your finish time move. When the day stops fitting, you find out in the morning instead of at midnight. ONE TASK AT A TIME Start a focus session and everything else gets out of the way. Just the task, a timer, and controls to pause, skip or complete. IT FOLLOWS YOU OUT OF THE APP Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets show today's list and your running timer, so you can tick things off without opening the app. Live Activities keep the session in your Dynamic Island, so you can pause or finish from anywhere in iOS. CLOSE THE DAY PROPERLY See what actually happened instead of guessing, with a daily recap and an end-of-day summary that closes the loop. GENTLE NUDGES, NOT NAGGING Optional reminders in the morning, evening and at night. No streaks to break and nothing to feel guilty about. FREE, AND FORGET PRO Free forever: today's task list with create, complete, edit and reorder, plus breaks, repeats, Later, filters and sort, and cloud sync with forget.work. Forget Pro unlocks subtasks, focus mode and timers, plan mode and daily recap, the wrap-day summary, and Home and Lock Screen widgets. Available monthly or yearly, or as a one-time lifetime purchase that covers iOS and the web. Your brain works fine. Give it a to-do list that finally does too. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
