3 things a day vs BlockDay

Your to-do list is making you anxious. The modern task manager is a trap. It is an infinite scroll of guilt. You add 20 items, you complete 5, and you go to bed feeling like a failure. You aren't productive; you are just busy. 3 Things is not a place to dump your brain. It is a tool to sharpen it. We built this app on a simple, brutal truth: You cannot do everything. But you can do the 3 most important things. This is your daily contract with yourself. THE PHILOSOPHY This app is based on the Ivy Lee Method and the principles of Essentialism. It forces you to make a choice. If everything is a priority, nothing is. By limiting your day to just 3 slots, you are forced to separate the "busy work" from your "life's work." HOW IT WORKS • Plan: Every morning, define your 3 non-negotiables. • Focus:Work on these tasks single-mindedly. • Execute: Check them off to get the dopamine hit. • Repeat: Build a streak of days where you actually finish. WHY "LIMITS" ARE A FEATURE You will want to add a 4th item. We won't let you. This is not a bug; it is the point. Limitations create freedom. By blocking the noise, we help you focus on the signal. STOP MANAGING. START FINISHING. Ditch the complex tools. Stop hoarding tasks you will never do. Download 3 Things. Choose your focus. Win the day.

Plan tomorrow in blocks tonight, then live it. BlockDay turns a pile of to-dos into a real schedule. You lay blocks on a paper-style day canvas, drag them to size, and give each one a start time, an end time, and a category. Then you live the day one focus block at a time and see how close you stayed to the plan. What you can do: - Build a day on a paper-style canvas. Drag a block to move it, drag the handle to resize it. Blocks snap to five minutes. - Fill a day in seconds from a built-in template library: deep work, admin, breaks, meetings, health, learning, personal, and errands. - Run the nightly planning ritual. Name one intention, pick a day shape, and set a reminder to plan tomorrow while today is fresh. - Start a focus block timer, count it down, and mark the block done. - Review plan vs actual. Mark each block done, partly, or skipped for a kept-time score, per block and per category. - See where the day goes with category time totals on every screen. - Read weekly patterns: planned hours by day and your category mix for the week. - Syncs across iPhone, iPad, and Mac with iCloud. Free and Pro: - Free covers up to seven planned days, the day canvas, the template library, the focus timer, plan vs actual review, and this week's insights. - Pro unlocks unlimited days and your full history, weekly trend charts for hours and follow-through, saving your own custom blocks, and exporting a day plan PDF or a CSV of every block. Private by design. No account of ours and no tracking. Your plans live on your device and in your private iCloud. Subscription details.
