Focus vs MOL.DO

The problem isn't planning. It's having 50 things scream for your attention at once. Focus is the calm, distraction-free daily planner and timer built for ADHD minds that are drowning in decision fatigue, task paralysis, and endless phone distractions. You don't need another app with 200 features. You need one that makes you do the one thing that actually matters — right now. WHY FOCUS WORKS ◆ ONE THING AT A TIME (THE RULE OF 3) Todoist gave you 200 tasks. Things 3 gave you infinite lists. Focus gives you 3. Pick today's priorities, hide everything else, and work through them one card at a time. When you finish 3, you're done. That's your daily finish line. ◆ DISTRACTION SHIELD (APP BLOCKER) You know the pattern: "I'll just check Instagram for a second." 90 minutes later, you haven't started. Focus uses Apple Screen Time to physically lock distracting apps while your timer is active. They unlock when you're done. No willpower needed. ◆ IMMERSIVE POMODORO & SOUNDSCAPES Your brain needs the right environment to focus. Pair 25 or 50-minute Pomodoro sessions with built-in ambient soundscapes — gentle rain, brown noise, cafe bustle, and 40Hz binaural audio — scientifically designed to quiet ADHD racing thoughts. ◆ AI TASK BREAKDOWN "Write the quarterly report" is terrifying. "Open the document and type one sentence" is not. Focus breaks overwhelming tasks into tiny, 5-minute micro-steps so you actually start instead of staring at your phone for an hour. ◆ LIVE ACTIVITIES & DYNAMIC ISLAND Your current task and remaining time are always visible on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island. No unlocking. No new distractions. Just a quiet reminder of what you're doing and how much time is left. ◆ 2-WAY APPLE CALENDAR SYNC See your calendar events right alongside today's priorities. Timebox your day and protect dedicated deep work blocks. No more double-booking your focus time. ◆ INTERACTIVE WIDGETS Your #1 priority lives on your Home Screen and Lock Screen. Check it off with a single tap without ever opening the app. Less friction = less procrastination. ◆ GUILT-FREE STREAKS Broke your streak? Focus has built-in streak protection. Because missing one day shouldn't erase three weeks of momentum. Build daily habits without shame.

Someday → Today → Right Now. Most task apps are graveyards of "someday" items. MOL.DO is built on a single pipeline: pull a task from your backlog, give it a real deadline so it becomes today's task, then immerse yourself in the ONE task that's happening right now. That's it. No projects. No labels. No guilt. Just the funnel that turns intentions into finished work. THE THREE STAGES 1. Backlog — Someday Tasks Capture everything you might do, by voice or text. No pressure, no priority. It just lives here until you're ready. 2. Today — Tasks With a Deadline Pull a task from the backlog and commit. Give it today. Now it's no longer "someday" — it's a promise to your future self. 3. Right Now — The ONE You're Immersed In Pick the single task you're doing this moment. It locks onto your Home Screen widget and Lock Screen Live Activity. Everything else fades. WHY THIS WORKS The problem isn't capturing tasks. It's the gap between "I should" and "I'm doing." MOL.DO closes that gap with one rule: a task only earns "today" status when you commit a deadline, and only one task can be "right now." You stop juggling. You start finishing. FEATURES • Voice Brain Dump — capture backlog items by speaking • Deadline Commit — turn backlog items into today's tasks with a single tap • Right Now Focus Mode — one task, one screen, zero distraction • Live Activity — your current task always visible on the Lock Screen • Home Screen Widget — your ONE in your peripheral vision all day • Day History — see exactly what you finished, not just what you planned • Weekly & Monthly Reports — patterns of what actually got done • Reflect — quick check-in at day's end WHO IT'S FOR • People drowning in 200-item todo lists • Knowledge workers who lose hours to context switching • Anyone with ADHD-style task paralysis • Folks who've tried Things, Todoist, TickTick — and still feel scattered • Builders, writers, students who need deep focus, not more features NOT BUILT FOR Project management. Team collaboration. Shared lists. If you need those, use something else. MOL.DO is for one person, one task, one moment. PRIVACY Your tasks stay on your device. No accounts required. No tracking. Stop adding. Start finishing. Pull it forward. Lock it in. Get immersed.
