Time vs Ascend

Time-Trace is a simple and private time tracking app that helps you understand how you spend your day - hour by hour.

Ascend lives directly on your Apple Reminders and Calendar — four honest lanes, one mountain. No new database, no import, no account — your tasks ARE your reminders, your events ARE your calendar, and everything syncs the way it already does. NOW — One rail for the whole day: events, due tasks, and due notes in order, with a line where you stand. Complete, triage, or edit anything in place. TASKS — Four honest lanes as a living list: Execute, Next, Waiting, Someday. Drag a task between lanes and Ascend rewrites the real reminder — priority and due date included. DAYS — A time grid that respects your hands: tap an empty slot to create, press and hold to move or resize blocks — snapped to 15 minutes, across days. Tasks move too. THE CLIMB — Your last 30 days drawn as an ascent. Every completion climbs 10 m. Start a Climb for any project and watch the route ahead reach for its summit. TWO MARKS, EVERYWHERE — North Star pins the few things that matter above everything, on every device. Flag punches a row orange without hijacking your order. ON THE WRIST — The watch is a tool, not a viewer: open and edit tasks and events from the face, dictate titles, star, flag, complete, or delete. The Now Timeline complication draws your next hours as an hour grid in your calendars' real colors — the mountain waits at base camp all morning and stands at the summit until midnight. The North Stars complication keeps the few that matter one glance away. NOTES — Markdown notes with checklists, folders, due dates, and links — synced privately through your iCloud. PRIVATE BY ARCHITECTURE — No servers. No accounts. No analytics. Ascend makes no network connections of its own; Apple's Reminders, Calendar, and iCloud are the database
