Nauu is a to-do list that gets out of the way. No streaks to keep up, nothing shouting for attention. Just your tasks, in the order you want them, on a screen with nothing else on it. WRITE IT DOWN, MOVE IT ALONG Add a task and it is on the list. Tap it to finish it. Swipe right to pick a status — to do, in progress, done or flagged — and swipe left to delete. Touch and hold to pick a task up and drag it where it belongs. Only one task at a time can be In Progress, and it is the loudest thing on the screen. It is the one you are doing. Finished tasks step aside into a single line under the list: out of the way, still there. Delete something by mistake and you have a few seconds to undo it. A LIST FOR EVERY CORNER OF THINGS Shopping, work, the trip in October. Swipe between them, and make as many as you like. MAKE IT LOOK HOW YOU THINK Ranged left, centered or right. Bigger text, or smaller. Hide the status icons for a list that is nothing but words — then choose whether a tap finishes a task or opens it, because it should do the one you reach for most. Hide the controls entirely and let the screen go quiet while you work. Light, dark, or whatever your phone is already on. Lock Nauu behind Face ID, and it locks again the moment you leave. THE SMALL THINGS Tap the empty space under a list to start a new task — one tap, not two. Hold that same space and paste a list from Notes, Messages or an email, and every line becomes a task. NAUU PRO One purchase. No subscription. • Widgets — your current task on the Home and Lock Screen, and you can tick it off without opening the app • Due dates — give a task a time, and Nauu says so when it comes • Repeating tasks — daily, weekly, monthly.
