Decree helps you manage your day in a focused, single-minded way. First, think about the long term goals that you would like to achieve. There are usually small steps you can take on a daily basis to get you to your final goal. Walk through your day and decide the steps you’d like to complete every day.. Then input your steps into the app, and you will be guided to fulfilling your long-term goals! In the main app experience, all you see is the single task that you have to complete. This keeps you singularly focused. Live Activities help you keep your focus throughout the day, anytime you so much as glance at your phone. We know the variations in your day. Sometimes it takes longer to get your work done, sometimes you like to workout for longer. Complete your tasks throughout the day without the distractions of completing it within a given time window. Instead, simply complete all your tasks throughout the day to achieve success. This makes adding a new habit as easy as adding a new step to your routine list! You'll see it the next day, and act on it.

JotBunker is a note-taking app for your phone and your computer. You jot on your phone. You work and store in your Bunker, a secure computer on your home network. Sync happens over your local Wi-Fi when you choose. No cloud. No accounts. No data ever leaves your network. FOUR WORKSPACES • Jots: Six numbered slots for quick capture. Each slot holds text, drawings, photos, voice recordings, and file attachments. Fill the slots, sync them to your computer, and clear them for the next round. • Lists: Todos and checklists. Rename categories, reorder items, check things off on either device. Changes merge when you reconnect. • Locked Lists: Gate codes, lock combos, membership numbers, safe combinations. Protected behind biometrics and auto-locked the moment you navigate away. • Scratchpads: Six freeform text areas. Start a thought on your computer, pick it up on your phone. HOW SYNC WORKS Pair once by scanning a QR code. After that, tap Sync whenever you're on your home network. All network traffic is encrypted end-to-end with NaCl. Nothing goes through an external server. From your computer, download jots as plain files (.txt, .jpg, .m4a, .pdf) into folders you choose. Use them with anything: search tools, scripts, a PKM system, or just File Explorer. OPEN SOURCE JotBunker source code is publicly available under the GPL-3.0 license at github.com/johnbrantly/jotbunker. The companion desktop app is available at jotbunker.com.
