Potom is for people carrying too much in their heads. You open it, type one line, and close it. That's the whole thing. FAST CAPTURE Write the way you'd say it: "call the dentist Friday at 6", "grab the package tomorrow", "renew subscription in a week". Potom pulls out the date and time and leaves just the task itself. Nothing to pick from a dropdown. TODAY, AND ONLY TODAY The main screen shows a handful of tasks for today — not thirty. Everything else sits quietly until its date comes up. Less on screen, less to dread. THOUGHTS AREN'T TASKS Not every idea is something to do. Links, half-formed plans, things worth thinking about later — they get their own space, where nothing nags at you and no red badge appears. MEET PUZYRIK A small pixel character lives in the app. He has moods, and he notices how things are going. He won't scold you or guilt-trip you for a missed day. He's just there. WIDGETS Today's tasks on your home screen and lock screen. Usually faster than opening the app at all. WHAT'S NOT HERE No projects, tags, subtasks, priorities, kanban boards, team collaboration, or weekly productivity reports. If you want those, there are excellent apps for it — Potom isn't one of them. Potom does one thing: open, type, close, remember at the right moment.
