Forj

Forj helps you build a realistic day plan, not just a list of things you wish you could do. Full access requires a subscription or a one-time lifetime purchase. Every morning, Forj asks how much time you have. Then it suggests which tasks fit your day, based on their duration and your location. You validate the plan, and you start. - Time-aware planning: every task has a duration. Forj knows if your day is overloaded before you do. - Location tagging: mark tasks as "Home", "Office", or anywhere. Get suggestions that match where you are. - Manual priority: no algorithm decides for you. Drag to reorder, your judgment, your list. - Three task types: one-shot tasks, recurring habits, and goal-linked sub-tasks, all in one place. - Long-term goals: break down ambitions into actionable sub-tasks and track progress over time. - Smart notifications: alerts for deadlines and tasks that have been sitting untouched too long. Forj doesn't try to be everything. It's a focused tool for people who want to spend less time planning and more time doing. Build your momentum, task by task. All features require an active Forj subscription. Terms and conditions: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
