Truly Simple Timeline vs Leanly

Truly Simple Timeline was built by a professional author to keep track of narrative arcs, story beats, and character moments across a novel.

Unlock unlimited timelines with a single one-time, lifetime in-app purchase. No subscriptions, no ads, no hidden fees.

Leanly is a productivity app built around weekly sprints. Commit to fewer tasks and actually finish them. Unlike traditional task managers, Leanly limits how much you can commit to each week — so you focus on what truly matters. Instead of endless task lists, Leanly turns your week into one structured sprint. How Leanly works: • Plan your week as a single sprint • Choose up to 5 commitments per week • Focus on up to 3 tasks per day • Stay within limits to drive real progress Leanly combines task management with structured time control. No feature overload. No productivity hype. Just clear boundaries. Perfect for professionals, founders, and knowledge workers who feel overwhelmed by flexible planning tools. If you’re looking for a minimal productivity app, a focused weekly planner, or a smarter time management system, Leanly helps you do less and finish better
