Space Tasks turns your to-dos into a living galaxy. You’re the captain, navigating a universe that evolves every time you get something done. A task isn’t a line on a list. It’s a planet waiting to be explored. A step isn’t a checkbox. It’s a region on the surface you travel through. Add a task --> it becomes a planet. AI breaks it down --> you get a clear mission plan with simple steps. Complete a step --> your ship moves across the world. Finish the task --> the entire system gets mapped into your galaxy. Everything you do expands your universe. You rise through the ranks, unlock sectors, and build a galaxy shaped by your own progress. Your First Mate stays with you on every mission, offering guidance and pushing you forward when you drift. If traditional to-do lists drain you, Space Tasks gives you something better: a world that reacts when you take action and rewards you with real momentum. Tasks stop feeling like chores and start feeling like exploration.

All aboard for fewer distractions. Train Mode turns focus into a calm train ride. Choose a city, pick a route, board the train, and stay on track while you work, study, read, write, or take a break from distracting apps. Instead of staring at a plain timer, Train Mode gives your focus session a beginning, a journey, and an arrival. Your ride moves through station milestones, helping you feel progress without constantly checking your phone. HOW IT WORKS Choose a city. Pick a train ride. Board the train. Stay focused until you arrive. Train Mode is designed for people who want a more playful, calming way to start and finish focused sessions. FEATURES • Train-themed focus sessions Pick a ride and turn your work time into a journey. • City and route selection Choose from different cities and train rides, each with its own mood and duration. • Station progress Move through simple station milestones as your session continues. • App blocking support Use Screen Time permissions to help block selected distracting apps and categories during a ride. • Arrival summary When the ride ends, see your completed session and celebrate arriving on track. • Calm visual design A cozy train-inspired interface with clean routes, gentle progress, and a focused atmosphere. • Flexible focus lengths Use short rides for quick resets or longer rides for deeper work. TRAIN MODE PRO Unlock more ways to build your personal railway for focus. Pro features may include: • Custom train rides Create your own routes, durations, and station names. • More blocking presets Set up different app-blocking lists for work, study, reading, sleep, or creative time. • Scheduled departures Plan recurring focus rides so your routine starts on time. • Focus stats Track completed rides, focus minutes, streaks, and recent sessions. • Ticket stamps Collect a ticket each time you complete a ride. • Ambient train sounds Add a calming train atmosphere to your focus session. WHY TRAINS? A train ride has a clear departure, a route, and an arrival. Train Mode uses that simple idea to make focus feel less like forcing yourself to be productive and more like stepping into a quiet carriage for a little while. Use Train Mode for: • Studying • Writing • Reading • Deep work • Homework • Creative projects • Screen breaks • Reducing social media distractions • Building a calmer daily routine IMPORTANT NOTE Train Mode cannot turn on Airplane Mode automatically. Instead, it can help block selected distracting apps using Apple’s Screen Time permissions. Board a ride. Leave distractions at the station.
