Managing tasks isn't doing tasks. Most to-do apps ask you to build a system first. Projects, tags, folders, priorities, filters. You spend Sunday setting it up and abandon it by Thursday. DOTHING has none of that. You add a task. It shows up on the day it's due. You tap it done. Say it or type it Hold the + button and talk. "Call Mom tomorrow at 6" becomes a task, dated, without you touching a date picker. Transcription happens on your iPhone. Block what pulls you away Choose the apps that distract you, then press and hold to block them while you work on a task. A timer on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island keeps you company until it's done. Do it together Share a task with anyone. Everyone sees the same steps and every change as it happens. Joining is free. Everything a task needs Subtasks to break it into steps. Notes, links, photos, files and drawings. Repeats for the things that come back. Reminders that arrive on time. Just ask Siri "Add a task in DOTHING." "What's on today in DOTHING?" "What's coming up in DOTHING?" Your tasks show up when you search your iPhone, too.
