Ordinalは、決めることを減らすためのアプリです。 やることを並べるのではなく、順番を確定させます。開いたときに見えるのは次の1つで、何から手をつけるかを毎回選び直す必要がありません。 部屋で分ける プロジェクトごとに部屋を作ります。部屋の中にいる間、ほかの部屋のタスクは見えません。壁の向こうを気にせず、目の前の並びだけを見られます。 順番が決まっている タスクには01、02、03と番号が振られます。長押しして動かすと、指を離した瞬間に上から順に振り直されます。同率も、迷う余地もありません。 Today 各部屋の先頭から3件だけが集まります。手で入れる箱ではなく、部屋の順番とタスクの順番から決まります。並べ替えれば、ここに出るものが変わります。 Focus 1つのタスクだけを表示します。ナビゲーションは消え、経過時間だけが画面の上端に細く出ます。終えたら画面を出ずに、同じ部屋の次の1件が立ち上がります。 地層 完了したものは、日ごとの層になって積もります。多く片付いた日は厚く、静かな日は薄く。数を競うためではなく、経てきたものを見るためにあります。 カレンダー iPhoneのカレンダーにある予定を、タスクの期日と並べて表示します。読み取るだけで、予定を作ったり変えたりすることはありません。表示するカレンダーは選べます。 ウィジェットとApple Watch ロック画面に、今やる1件。ホーム画面に、今日の3件と部屋ごとの残り。Apple Watchにも同じ1件が届きます。 要求してきません 通知は初期状態ですべてオフです。バッジも、連続日数も、達成率もありません。開いたときにだけ働きます。 広告はありません。トラッキングもしません。アプリ自身がネットワーク通信を行わないので、あなたのタスクが端末の外に出ることはありません。 無料です すべての機能が無料で、支援した人としない人でアプリの動作に差はありません。続けるための支援を受け取る場所を用意してありますが、それだけです。
