Your to-do list isn't the problem. Your phone is. NoCrast keeps your distracting apps locked until you've done the work. Finish a task, earn minutes to spend on them. Get through everything you planned, and the rest of the day is yours. FOCUS SHIELD • Choose the apps and categories that pull you away, and the days you need help most. • Every finished task earns screen time. Hard or boring tasks earn a little more. • Need a minute mid-conversation? Two short free breaks a day. • Open a held app and it shows your next step and the minutes it earns. BIG GOAL? TINY STEPS. • Describe a goal in your own words. NoCrast's AI breaks it into small, doable tasks, each with its time, effort and focus. • See your first plan right away, before you sign up. Step 1 is small enough to start today. • Tasks know what they depend on, so you always see what is ready to start. PLAN YOUR DAY IN A MINUTE • Swipe right to commit to a task, left to postpone it. • Time, effort and focus rings show you when you are about to take on too much. • Whatever you don't finish comes back tomorrow. Nothing gets lost. ROUTINES • Gym, groceries, laundry: set the days once and they show up in your plan. AI BUDDY • Tired, short on time, not sure where to start? Ask, and get the one task that fits right now. ALSO • Reminders, progress stats and four themes. • Your plan syncs with the NoCrast web app at nocrast.app. PRICING Every new account starts with a free week, no payment details needed.
