Priority Zero
Read full descriptionHide full description
Things to do, in the right order. Priority Zero is a clean, fast to-do list built around one idea: give every task a priority from 0 to 9, and always see the most important things first. Zero means "do this now" - hence the name. PRIORITIES FIRST - Every task gets a priority badge, 0 (most urgent) to 9 - Lists sort by priority by default, so the top of the list is always what matters most - Also sort alphabetically, by created date, or by due date - per list, the app remembers your choice A CHIRP THAT KEEPS YOU HONEST - Pick ONE task and switch on "Chirp at me until this is done" - The app gently chirps at an interval you choose (every 5-120 minutes), during your working hours only, until you mark it done - Works with the app closed and the phone locked - Choose your sound: cricket, bird, beep, singing bowl, wolf howl or dog bark - A visual reminder flashes in the header at each chirp, and a notification names the task so it shows on your lock screen EVERYTHING A TO-DO APP SHOULD HAVE - Multiple lists plus a combined "All Tasks" view - Due dates with a smart natural-language engine ("tomorrow", "fri", "3 aug") - Instant search across your tasks - A collapsible Done section with one-tap bulk delete - Quick-add that keeps focus, so you can capture tasks back-to-back - Share or export any list as CSV - Dark mode SYNCED EVERYWHERE - Sign in with a free account and your lists, tasks and settings sync across all your devices - Works offline; changes sync when you're back online WORKING HOURS - Set your working days and hours; the chirp respects them and stays silent outside them Priority Zero shows a small banner advert to keep the app free.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Priority Zero at none against Focus Timer's 3. Focus Timer's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
