Your head is full and you can't see of what. Unsorted gives you somewhere to put it. Type a thought, and it becomes a bubble floating on screen. No folder to pick. No project to set up. No blank list staring back at you. Then you can finally see it all at once. HOW IT WORKS Dump it out Open the app, type, done. Under five seconds from thought to screen. That's the whole setup. Watch what you're avoiding Tasks grow bigger the longer they sit. Nothing is hidden behind a tab, and nothing gets flagged in red. The thing you keep putting off just quietly gets harder to miss. Pick one and give it a time When you're ready to act, block time for a task without leaving the canvas. Pop it Double-tap. The bubble bursts, the screen settles, and your head gets a little quieter. WHO IT'S FOR People with too many tabs open, mentally and literally. People who have downloaded four todo apps and abandoned all of them, not because they weren't trying, but because those apps were built for a different kind of brain. If lists have never worked for you, this isn't a better list. It's not a list at all. WHAT'S INSIDE · Physics-based canvas that responds to how you move your phone · Tasks that grow with age, so urgency shows itself · Five color-coded categories, or make your own · Time blocking, reminders and recurring tasks · Home screen widgets · Light, dark, and automatic themes · English and Spanish · No account. No ads. Your data stays on your device. PRO Free gives you 10 active tasks, which is enough to know whether this works for your brain. Pro unlocks unlimited tasks, custom categories and time blocking for a one-time $14.99. Not a subscription. You buy it once and it's yours. A NOTE I built this for someone I love. They tried every app out there and nothing stuck. Not because they weren't trying hard enough, but because every one of those apps assumed a brain that works in straight lines. So I built one that doesn't. Hope it helps you too.
