Track habits that run on autopilot. Doomscrolling. Late-night snacking. Drinking. These don't need building, they already happen by default. Interruptly shows you WHEN they happen automatically so you can plan around them instead of fighting them. No streaks. No daily pressure. No Day 0 resets. Just patterns that actually help you change.
First Thingy

Most productivity apps give you more ways to make longer lists. One Thing gives you one task. Set the one thing that matters most right now. Work on it. When you're done, mark it complete. If you give up, you have to say why — in your own words, saved permanently. That's it. Why only one task? Because you can only do one thing at a time anyway. The list is the lie. One Thing removes the lie. Why must you explain yourself? Because excuses are easy when no one is watching. One Thing is watching. Not to judge — to help you see the patterns you hide from yourself. The Honest Record Every task you've set, completed, or abandoned lives here. No editing. No deleting. Just the truth about how you spend your time and attention. Features: • Set one active task at a time — enforced • Abandoning requires a written explanation • Permanent honest record of all your tasks • Daily reminder at a time you choose • Light and dark mode • No account needed, no cloud sync, no tracking Your data stays on your device. Always.
