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.

Leave unfinished things for tomorrow. Make room for tonight. PARKit keeps the thoughts, tasks, and loose ends you want to remember, so you can put them aside when the day is done. Capture what is on your mind in keyword clouds. Add notes for the details, remove what you have finished, and park the rest for tomorrow. CAPTURE THROUGHOUT THE DAY Create a cloud with a short keyword or phrase. Tap once to view or add a note. Tap twice to remove it when it no longer needs your attention. PARK WHAT REMAINS At the end of the day, hold the orb and follow the breathing ritual. Your clouds fade from view as the orb goes to sleep. Your keywords and notes stay saved. You do not have to finish everything to finish your day. RETURN WHEN YOU ARE READY Hold the orb to open what you parked. Your clouds return with their notes, ready for you to pick up where you left off. MAKE IT PART OF YOUR DAY Use OPEN and PARK reminders to make time for the ritual. Start with two active clouds for free. Subscribe to PARKit Access for up to 12 active clouds and custom reminder times. YOUR THOUGHTS STAY PRIVATE Your clouds and notes are stored on your device, not on a server. No account required. PARKit Access is available as a monthly or yearly subscription. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled. Manage or cancel your subscription in your App Store account settings.
