Read full descriptionHide full description
Do it Myshelf is a focused task manager built around a simple idea: you can only work on three things at a time. Your tasks live on a wooden shelf with exactly three slots. Everything else stays tucked away in a drawer below. When you finish a task, the next one moves up automatically. No endless lists. No overwhelm. Just three things, right in front of you. KEY FEATURES β’ Shelf + Drawer system β Only your top 3 tasks are visible. The rest wait in the drawer until you're ready. β’ Multiple projects β Swipe through up to 15 projects, each with its own shelf. Inactive projects fade so you stay focused on what matters now. β’ Guided setup β A simple wizard walks you through creating a project: name it, list your tasks, then pick which 3 go on the shelf first. β’ Quick editing β Long-press to rearrange, rename, or move tasks between shelf and drawer. Context menus keep everything one tap away. β’ Archive & restore β Done with a project? Archive it. Changed your mind? Bring it back. β’ Offline & private β Works without an account. Your data stays on your device with iCloud sync. Do it Myshelf doesn't try to be everything. It does one thing well: keeping you focused on what's next.
