"Good Human!" is a work timer that helps you stay focused, actually see where your time went, and motivates you with fun sound effects. It supports how you actually work - not how you think you should work. Start a work session when you start working, pause and resume as needed. When you switch to a different project, simply keep working and update the project label, even mid-session. When you complete a session, a fun sound effect of your choice lets you know you did good. At the end of the week, reflect back and see where your time went using the clear and beautiful color-and-emoji coded view of the sessions you put in and the projects you focused on. Stay focused. Work the way that works for you

I got 99 tasks, but distraction ain't one. Most task apps trap you in an infinite backlog of forgotten to-dos, complex project hierarchies, and monthly subscription taxes. 99 Tasks cuts through the noise. It gives you exactly 99 private, local-first slots for your active work — calls, payments, errands, follow-ups, and reminders. When your stack is full, you finish what's there before adding more. The constraint IS the superpower. What you can do in 30 seconds: • Capture a task by typing — natural language parses categories, due dates, and slots inline • Tap a row's icons to set focus, important, My Day, reminder, notes, or clear • Swipe left to clear, swipe right to focus • Find any task by what it means, not just the words you used • Set a local reminder in one tap • Plan your day with My Day — the app suggests overdue and due-today items for you Why 99 Tasks instead of another todo app: • Exactly 99 slots. No infinite backlog. No boards. No projects. • Local-first. Your tasks live on your device. Sync is optional, not required. • No account. No email. No password. Open the app and start. • One-time $4.99 Lifetime. No monthly subscription. Three days free to try everything. • On-device semantic search — your task contents never leave your device. • iOS home-screen widget in three sizes. Mac menu bar companion. Built for: • People with too many task apps who keep starting new ones • Founders, operators, freelancers, and builders who live in many apps • Anyone with attention friction who benefits from a fixed visual stack • Mac users who want a menu bar task companion • People who want a private paid utility instead of another account-based todo app

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: 99 Tasks at Free against Good Human!'s $1.99. 99 Tasks also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 6 weeks). On ads, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
