Goat Tasks turns good intentions into finished work. Instead of one more to-do list that grows faster than you can clear it, you get six focused tools — each built on published research into how people actually prioritize, follow through, and build habits that last. Everything you finish earns points and climbs a rank, so today's work is still visible tomorrow. EISENHOWER MATRIX Sort every task on two axes, urgency and importance, and see at a glance what to do first, what to schedule, what to delegate, and what to drop. Your brain over-weights whatever feels urgent and quietly neglects what actually matters. The matrix breaks that reflex and pushes important-but-not-urgent work back to the top — which is where real progress lives. DAILY ROUTINE CYCLE Design your ideal day hour by hour, then let it repeat. Anchoring a task to a specific time turns "I should" into an automatic "when it's 7am, I do this," so you spend willpower deciding once instead of every single time. Adjustable reminders keep the cue firing when you are busy, and a color slider makes the day your own. TASK TREE Break big projects into nested sub-tasks until the smallest step is something you can actually start in one sitting. Completion percentages roll up the tree automatically, so progress on a long project stays visible instead of disappearing into "someday." COUNT TRACKER Track any countable thing — reps, pages, minutes, glasses of water. The simple act of recording a behavior moves you toward the goal, and every tally is a small, visible win that keeps you going. DAILY REPORT Close the day with a short, honest reflection — rate each routine, and say what got in the way. Doing the work is not the same as learning from it, and a running record turns scattered days into a visible trajectory. HABIT INSIGHTS Then let Goat Tasks read your reports back to you. See whether you are trending up or slipping week over week, which day you are strongest, whether mornings really beat evenings, and exactly what each blocker costs you. THE CLIMB Everything you finish earns points and moves you up a ladder of eighteen ranks, from Pebble Kicker to The G.O.A.T. Show up daily and a streak multiplier builds. Go quiet and you slide back down — which is the point. Progress you can lose is progress worth protecting. BUILT ON RESEARCH, NOT VIBES Every tool ships with an in-app guide explaining why it works and what it does for you, with the studies cited. Zhu, Yang and Hsee on the mere-urgency effect. Gollwitzer on implementation intentions. Bandura and Schunk on proximal sub-goals. Harkin and colleagues on progress monitoring. Di Stefano and colleagues on reflection. ON IPHONE, IPAD AND MAC Plan on your Mac at your desk, check things off on your phone, review the day on your iPad. iCloud keeps everything in step automatically — no account to create, and your data stays with your Apple Account. FREE AND PREMIUM Every tool is free to use, including the Eisenhower Matrix visualization, the Daily Report, your habit insights and the full rank ladder. The free tier caps how much you can create: 2 priority tasks, 2 routines, 1 project and 1 counter, with a single level of sub-task nesting. Premium removes every limit — unlimited tasks, routines, projects and counters, and unlimited nested task trees. PRICING Premium is available as an auto-renewable subscription, monthly or yearly, or as a one-time purchase that unlocks the app permanently.

Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours prior to the end of the current period.

Baseline is a checklist for tracking the things you want to do every day. Build your list once. It comes back every morning. Add things as you go, check things off, skip what you need to. Keep track of what keeps you grounded. Your basics - medications, movement, meals, water, workouts, reading, reminders - all on one screen. Three item types cover almost everything: checks (done or not), counters (tap to increment toward a target), and trackers (log a value like weight, sleep, or miles). Baseline is free, forever. The free app includes unlimited tasks, all three item types, all scheduling options, day brackets, and 10 starter templates. No ads. No algorithms. No data collection. Everything stays on your device. BASELINE PRO Baseline Pro adds 10 more templates plus three features and three advanced tools that let you do more: Focus - A single-task view for priorities. One item at a time. Complete it. Move on. Insight - Your week at a glance. What you completed, what you pushed, what's trending up or down. Intention - A short morning note and an evening reflection. A quiet framing for your day. Connect - Keep up with your connections. Set a cadence for reaching out to your friends and family. Cycle - Multi-step plans that run on your daily list. A more detailed tool for keeping up with complex tasks. Practice - Track anything you're building. Set a pace, measure progress, watch the target move with you. Baseline Pro also includes all themes and every feature we build next. WHAT YOU GET - Unlimited tasks at every tier - Fast, keyboard-friendly entry - Day brackets to break up your to-do list: morning, afternoon, and evening - Clean export of all your data at any time - No account, no sign-in, no cloud WHAT MAKES BASELINE DIFFERENT - No streaks. Missing a day doesn't undo your work. - No social features. Your list is yours. - No cloud. Everything stays on your phone. - No ads. No data collection. No algorithms. - Built around your list, not around engagement metrics. We built Baseline for ourselves. Our lives work better with structure, and every productivity tracker or checklist app we tried felt overcomplicated and overconnected. We wanted to replace waking up and doomscrolling with looking over the most important parts of our day. So we built something simple that works, and made it free so it can work for you, too. Most apps want you engaged with their product. Baseline wants you engaged with your life. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
