PravaApp vs Mindwtr

PravaApp turns the time you actually focus into a measurable habit. Start a Block — a timeboxed focus session tied to a Flow Profile (Deep Work, Wellness, Wind-down, and more). The moment your block starts, a Live Activity countdown lives on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island. PravaApp watches what you open in real time: shows you when you're aligned with your intention, and warns you the moment you drift toward an app you've marked as distracting (Smart Nudge). When the block ends, you get a clear receipt: how you spent those minutes, your Flow Points earned, your focus profile across the session, and a coach-written note about what to try next. — FOCUS BLOCKS Pick a Flow Profile (Deep Work, Wellness, Pomodoro-style sprints, Wind-down). Start a block. Live Activity, focus state, and Smart Nudge all activate automatically. — SMART NUDGE Open a known-distracting app during a block? PravaApp surfaces a Live Activity warning within seconds, so you can choose to come back without breaking the flow. — FLOW POINTS Earn points for time spent in productive apps and for clean focus blocks. Daily check-ins and self-assessments stack bonus points. — REAL COACHES Pick from a roster of coach personalities. Each one writes you a short note after every block, tuned to your goals. — CROSS-DEVICE COMPANION PravaApp on iPhone is the focus companion. Install the desktop trackers (Mac and Windows — links inside the app) to see your Flow Ratio across every device you use. — PRIVACY PravaApp uses Apple's Screen Time framework to read which app you're in — never the contents. We never block apps. Per-app data lives inside Apple's privacy sandbox; only your aggregated focus stats reach the cloud. Free to download. Coaching personalities and Flow Profiles included.

Your head keeps reminding you of things at the worst times. Mindwtr gives them a safe home. Mindwtr (pronounced "mind water") is a free, open-source to-do app built on the Getting Things Done (GTD) method. Write down every task and idea the moment it appears, sort it in seconds, and see only what you can do right now. No account, no subscription, and your data stays on your device. HOW IT WORKS 1. Dump it. A task, an idea, a worry: type it or speak it, and it lands in your Inbox. 2. Sort it. A short guided pass: do it now, schedule it, hand it off, or shelve it for someday. 3. Do it. The Focus view shows only what you can act on right now, nothing else. 4. Reset weekly. A guided review catches loose ends, so the list stays trustworthy and your head stays clear. New to GTD? The idea is simple: your head is for having ideas, not for holding them. Mindwtr walks you through every step. WHY MINDWTR - Works completely offline.
