YOUR DAY, MADE CLEAR Prism is a visual day planner that helps you see your time, not just your tasks. Color-coded blocks show your entire day at a glance — what's now, what's next, and what's done. BUILT FOR HOW YOUR BRAIN WORKS Most planners are built for people who are already organized. Prism is built for everyone else: - Time blindness? See exactly how your tasks fit into your day - Overwhelmed? Prism shows you just the next thing - Tasks piling up? Gentle nudges help you reschedule or let go — no guilt, no shame SMART WITHOUT THE CLOUD Type "Gym at 5pm for 1 hour" and Prism understands. On-device AI parses your tasks, suggests icons, and picks colors — all privately, nothing leaves your phone. CALM BY DESIGN - Warm, muted color palette (no angry red alerts) - No streaks, no productivity scores, no guilt - Overdue tasks get gentle options, not punishment - "Plans change" is a feature, not a failure SUBSCRIPTION INFORMATION Prism Pro is available as a monthly or annual auto-renewable subscription. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase. The subscription automatically renews unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.

Momentum turns your to-do list into a plan you can actually follow. Most task apps give you a longer and longer list. Momentum gives you a day. Capture what you need to do, then drag each task onto a visual timeline to block real time for it. In the morning you open Momentum and see exactly one thing: what you're doing right now, and what's next. TIME-BLOCK YOUR DAY • A clean, hour-by-hour timeline with a live "now" line • Drag tasks from your Inbox straight onto the day • Reschedule by dragging; nothing is ever more than a gesture away CAPTURE IN A TAP • Type one line — "Gym 6pm 45min" — and Momentum reads the time and length for you • Everything is parsed on your device. Nothing is sent anywhere. FOCUS ON ONE THING • Tap the block you're on for a calm, full-screen countdown • A Live Activity keeps the countdown on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island • Break a block into a checklist and tick steps off as you work THE MOMENTUM MAP • Not a generic calendar — a heatmap of your follow-through • Every day is tinted by how much of your plan you completed • See your streak, completion, and focused hours at a glance NOTHING FALLS THROUGH • Unfinished blocks roll back into your Inbox so you consciously re-plan them • A gentle streak keeps you coming back WORKS WITH YOUR LIFE • See your calendar events (Google, iCloud, Exchange — any account added in iOS) right on the timeline • Add a block or ask "what's next" with Siri and Shortcuts • A Home and Lock Screen widget shows your current and next block PRIVATE BY DEFAULT • No account. No sign-up. No ads. No tracking. • Your data lives on your device and syncs across your iPhone, iPad, and Mac for free with iCloud. Momentum is designed to feel calm, fast, and beautiful in both light and dark. Plan your day in a minute, then get on with it.
