NOT EVERY TASK IS URGENT. Some things can wait — but shouldn't be forgotten. Changing bed sheets, renewing your passport, checking food expiry dates, calling your parents. They're not on your daily to-do list, but they still need to happen. What-Else tracks them so you don't have to think about them — until it's time. It's the to-do list for everything else. THE CONCEPT • Flexible Intervals Real life isn't a calendar. With "Smart Intervals" (e.g., Every 2 weeks), the next due date only sets after you actually complete the task. No stress if you're a day late—the schedule adjusts to you. • Precision When Needed Need strict dates? You can also schedule tasks for specific days (e.g., "Every Tuesday" or "1st of the month"). Or combine both—flexible intervals with calendar-specific dates in a single task. • Track Reliability with On-Time Rate Unlike apps that just show checkmarks, What-Else tracks whether you completed tasks on-time or late. See which routines you're great at and which need interval adjustments based on YOUR patterns, not guesswork. KEY FEATURES • Dual Scheduling: Combine flexible intervals with calendar-specific dates in one task (e.g., "Every 5 days" + "Every Tuesday"). Most apps force you to choose one approach—What-Else gives you both • On-Time Rate Tracking: See completion reliability percentages for each task, not just checkmarks. Identify patterns and adjust intervals based on real data • Widgets: See your task status directly on your Home Screen or Lock Screen • iCloud Sync: Seamlessly syncs between devices. No account required • Daily Overview Notifications: Get a summary of what's due today • Native Design: Built with SwiftUI for a smooth experience with Dark Mode and Haptic Feedback • iPad and Apple Watch Support • Siri Shortcuts: Automate your routines with voice commands PERFECT FOR • Household: Changing bed sheets, watering plants, deep cleaning the bathroom • Maintenance: Descaling the coffee machine, backing up photos, digital cleanup • Health: Replacing toothbrush, taking vitamins, washing hairbrushes • Life Admin: Renewing your passport, checking food expiry dates, annual subscriptions • Social: Calling parents, reaching out to old friends and so much more ... WHAT-ELSE PRO Upgrade to Pro to unlock: • Unlimited Tasks • Advanced Analytics: On-Time Rate trends, completion patterns, and historical context. Each completion records the interval at that time—providing true historical analysis when you adjust task schedules over time. • Premium Icons (90+ Symbols) • Timeline Navigation • Support for indie development PRIVACY FIRST • No Account Required. • No User Tracking. • Data stays on your device and private iCloud.

Proc turns "I'll study later" into "I studied." Pick the apps that derail you, set your assignments, and Proc keeps those apps locked until you've actually made progress on your work — checked by AI, not the honor system. HOW IT WORKS 1. Add your assignments — type them in or import them straight from Canvas. 2. Choose the apps to block (social media, short-video apps, games — your call). 3. Do the work and submit it. Proc's AI reads your submission and scores how complete it is against the assignment. 4. Hit your daily progress goal and your apps unlock. Fall behind and they stay locked. AI-VERIFIED PROGRESS, NOT A HONOR SLIDER Your progress isn't a number you drag — it's earned. Proc uses Google's Gemini AI to judge how far along your real work is, so the apps you unlock reflect work you actually did. It checks completeness and whether you're on-topic; it never just hands you the answers. A DAILY PACE THAT'S ACTUALLY DOABLE Proc spreads each assignment across the days you have before it's due, so you get a fair daily target instead of a last-minute wall. Work ahead one day and you bank breathing room for the next. CANVAS, BUILT IN Connect Canvas once and your current-semester courses and assignments flow in automatically — no retyping due dates. SEE HOW YOUR CLASS IS DOING Verify your school email and the School tab shows how classmates are progressing on the same assignments — completely anonymous. No names, no leaderboards-as-shame, just a sense of where you stand. Report and block controls keep it safe. STICK TO YOUR WORD Set a commitment — how many days ahead you want to stay, whether weekends count — and Proc holds you to it. Making your blocking harder is instant; easing it takes a cooling- off period, so a moment of weakness doesn't undo your week. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Most of your data lives on your device. We don't use analytics or advertising SDKs and we don't track you across other apps. Your Canvas token stays in your device's Keychain. See our full Privacy Policy at theprocapp.com/privacy. Blocking uses Apple's Screen Time (Family Controls) on your own device — Proc never manages anyone else's phone. Stop doomscrolling your deadlines away.
