JustThreeThings is a refreshingly simple TODO app — with one twist: You can only add three things at a time. Why? Because life is overwhelming. ADHD or not, looking at a massive TODO list can feel paralyzing. JustThreeThings invites you to focus — not on everything — but on just three. Knock those out, then reset the board. Each task you enter is celebrated with encouraging messages and a growing green-light progress bar. Start a task and you’ll choose how much time you want to spend — a circular countdown timer helps you stay on track, complete with a full-screen 3…2…1 countdown to get you in the zone. Want a speed boost? Swipe left-to-right and you’re in Speed Run Mode — a 5-minute timer launches, perfect for quick wins. As you check off tasks, they light up green with a satisfying checkbox and floating “score points” that drift upward like Mario coin bonuses. You earn points for finishing tasks and for keeping a daily streak. Oh — and it works in light and dark mode. And if you’re curious, all your completed TODOs are saved in a history view, so you can look back and feel proud.
