TickDone
Read full descriptionHide full description
TickDone is a goal management software that integrates goal setting, task reminder, and timing statistics. It can help you: * Set goals, establish deadlines, and plan daily time investments. * Break down goals, refining them into specific daily tasks. * Time tasks, tracking the daily execution time for each task. * Analyze and compare the planned time investment with the actual execution time for adjustments and reflection. There are already many time management apps, each with unique features. In my understanding, each app conveys the designer's perspective on time management, and TickDone is no exception. I hope for an app that can break down goals into specific daily tasks, where tasks can have countdowns to aid focus and recording. The recording results can then be compared with the planned time investment to form a self-management loop. TickDone is such an app, embodying my understanding of the elements needed for achieving goals, striving for a simple design to help users focus on the tasks of each day. Rather than just being an app, it's my understanding of time management, and I hope you will like it too. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
Focus D

A Pomodoro timer that rewards you for building focus. You know the feeling. You picked up your phone to do one thing, and 20 minutes vanished. Focus isn't a personality trait — it's a skill. Skills are trainable. Focus D combines three things into one loop: • Timer — Time-box your work. Start small, build momentum. • Tasks — Break it down. One thing at a time. No cognitive overload. • Rewards — Satisfy yourself. Earn tomatoes, redeem them for wishlist items you set yourself. This isn't just another timer. It's built on BJ Fogg's Behavior Model: Motivation + Ability + Prompt. Most Pomodoro apps give you a timer and a notification — that covers Ability and Prompt, but they leave Motivation entirely to you. Now, Focus D closes the loop. What makes Focus D different: • A complete focus training system, not just a countdown • Wishlist rewards create incentive — earn what you care about • Task management built in — no app switching • Deep analytics in three sections — Daily snapshot, Trends over time, Insights that discover your patterns • Clean, native design. No account required. Your data stays on your device. • Live Activity & Dynamic Island support From the developer: I led an employee incentive management project before building Focus D. I saw firsthand how motivation systems change behavior — when you align ability, motivation, and the right nudge, people transform. I applied that same thinking here. This is the app I needed when I was the one scrolling. Focus D is the first app from DA3H. More tools are coming. Built for people who want to spend their time better.
