A minimalistic widget showing the top reminder from any of your lists. Multitasking is a lie, and there's clear evidence that focusing on, and completing a single task makes you more productive. This alternative for Apple Reminders does just that – shows your top reminder from any of your lists, so that you can focus on getting what matters done. It works in both light- and darkmode, and you can edit the widget to not show the list name if you want to push the minimalistic look to the max. Future roadmap includes: - Custom styling of fonts and colors of the widget with preview in the app - Ability to choose different lists based on your focus stat - More granular control of what information is available in the widget like due date, location, notes etc.

Make Scrolling More Intentional Be Intentional helps you understand how short-form content actually affects you. Instead of losing time to endless reels and clips, you log what you watched, how it made you feel, and whether it was truly worth it. The app then turns that into clear summaries and daily reflections so you can spot patterns, cut back on time-wasting content, and be more intentional with how you scroll. There is no feed, no likes, and no pressure to perform. Just awareness and insight. Log Your Scrolling After watching short-form content like Reels or TikTok-style videos, you quickly log what you consumed: • A short description of what you watched • Content categories such as comedy, memes, fitness, finance, or mindless • What the creator seemed to be trying to do • Your emotional reaction • An impact rating: Worth it, Just okay, or Time lost The logging flow is quick and guided, designed to take seconds, not minutes. See Your Daily and Long-Term Patterns The Home screen shows how your scrolling adds up over time: • Total reels logged in a selected period • A breakdown of positive, negative, and neutral sessions • An intentional score that moves up or down based on your habits • Day, week, month, and three-month summaries • Simple visual indicators that make patterns easy to notice Daily Reflections and Trends When you tap Analyze my day, the app reviews what you logged and generates a clear reflection based on that data. You will see: • A short summary of how intentional your day was • Common themes and emotional patterns • How your scrolling affected focus and mindset • A few practical suggestions you can act on Private and Offline-First Your data stays on your device. • Logs and reflections are saved locally • You can log and view history without an internet connection • Internet access is only needed when generating a daily reflection Key Features • Log short-form scrolling sessions • Categorize content and emotional responses • Rate whether content was worth your time • Automatic daily, weekly, and long-term summaries • Intentional scrolling score • One-tap daily reflection • Trend insights when enough history exists Who This App Is For • People who feel short-form content takes more time than they expect • Anyone who wants awareness without guilt • Users who want to understand how content affects mood and focus • Anyone trying to scroll with more intention instead of habit Scroll with awareness.
