About

Read full description

Quietask is a calm to-do list for people who need to see a task to do it. Your list stays on the Home Screen, your three moments of the day stay on the lock screen, and finishing something takes one swipe. LISTS Keep separate lists for today, errands, home or work, each with its own color. The first screen shows how far you have come in each one. SWIPE TO FINISH Swipe right to complete a task, left to delete it. A light tap in your hand confirms it. Hold a task to lift it, then drag it to where it belongs. THREE MOMENTS Choose up to three things a day you want to be present for: a walk, an hour of deep work, a proper dinner. Pin them to the lock screen and get a reminder before each one. WIDGETS Keep a list on the Home Screen and tick tasks off right in the widget. A small widget shows your three most urgent tasks, and lock screen widgets show your list or your moments. SIRI Say "Add a task in Quietask" to add one without touching the phone. NINE THEMES Four scenic themes, Morning Calm, Evening Glow, Night Stars and Meadow, plus five plain ones. PRIVATE No account, no ads and no subscription. Everything stays on your iPhone and works offline.
