About

DueView

Features
Read full description

See what you actually get done. DueView reads your Apple Reminders and turns them into a clear picture of how you work: what you finish, what slips, and when you're at your best. No new list to maintain — it uses the reminders you already keep. WHAT YOU GET • Completion gauge — one number for how much of your due work you're actually closing. • An honest on-time rate — unfinished work that has blown its deadline counts against you. Finishing two things promptly while ten sit overdue does not report as 100%. • Past due at a glance — how many tasks are late, and how long the oldest has been sitting there. • Average delay — when you are late, how late. • Tap any stat to see the reminders behind it. Not just "4 overdue" — which four, oldest first, with a jump straight to the Reminders app. • Per-list breakdown — find out which list is quietly dragging you down. • Trends — every headline number is compared against the previous period, so you see direction, not just position. DUEVIEW PLUS — ONE-TIME PURCHASE • Longer history: 1 month, 3 months, 1 year, or all time • Best Day — the weekday you close the most • Peak Hours — the time of day you actually finish things • Custom thresholds — decide how late still counts as on time No subscription. Buy once, keep it. BUILT TO BE HONEST DueView tells you what it can't measure. Tasks with no due date can't be judged for timeliness, and repeating tasks only report their current occurrence — so the app says so on screen, instead of quietly leaving them out of your numbers. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your reminders are read on your device and stay there. No account, no sign-in, no server, no tracking. REQUIREMENTS DueView works with the reminders already in Apple's Reminders app. It reads them; it never changes them.

About

Reckon

Features

Reckon ranks hypotheses by what hasn't been knocked down — not by what has the most support. Most decision tools let you write a long pros-and-cons list and call it analysis. That doesn't help — you can rationalize anything in prose. Reckon makes you compare every piece of evidence against every hypothesis and ranks them by Heuer's ACH technique (the method CIA analysts use): fewest refutations first, with a tiebreak on most support. WHAT YOU GET • A starter library: pick from six pre-built example boards (shortseller, founder, researcher, investigator, life decision, doctor) or describe your situation in a paragraph and let on-device AI seed the matrix for you. • Inline bias guardrails: when one hypothesis collects evidence all in the same direction, Reckon flags it. "Bears out" without "Cuts against" is the structural signature of confirmation bias. • Falsifier pre-commitment: state up front what evidence would prove a hypothesis wrong. The app reminds you whether that evidence ever showed up. • Steel-manning before ruling out: before you dismiss a hypothesis, Reckon asks for the strongest case for it. Stops you from throwing out the right answer too early. • Pre-mortem: after you reach a conclusion, the app asks you to imagine being wrong about it in a year. Catches wishful thinking that even refutation-first scoring misses. • Calibration tracking: when you finalize, set your confidence (0–100%) and a check-in date (1 week to 1 year). Come back when the date arrives, log the actual outcome, and Reckon shows your calibration curve over time. Are you actually right when you say you're 80% sure? • Strict Bayes mode (optional): set explicit priors per hypothesis and the matrix shows real Bayesian posterior probabilities updating with each rating, using likelihood ratios per Tetlock/Heuer convention. Real probability, not a heuristic. • Plain English mode: turns off the celestial vocabulary if you'd rather see "Hypotheses / Evidence / Matrix" than "Stars / Observations / Star chart." Same depth, less poetry. • Templates: save your hypothesis structure (e.g. forensic-accounting suspects, differential-diagnosis options) for reuse. Faster on your 12th board than your 1st. PRIVACY Local-only. Your boards, evidence, conclusions, and calibration history stay on your device. No server, no analytics, no ads. AI seed runs entirely on-device via Apple Intelligence — your situation never leaves your phone. WHY ACH Confirming evidence is cheap. Refuting evidence distinguishes. Most decision tools amplify confirmation bias by rewarding biggest positive sum. Reckon does the opposite. iOS 17+. AI seed and Strict Bayes posterior require iOS 26+ on Apple Intelligence-capable devices.
