Unblocked vs Beacon

Procrastination is not laziness, it is a protective mechanism. Unblocked is a simple app designed to help you overcome task paralysis. We break large tasks into micro-steps and guide you through the first minutes of action. We all know the feeling: you know exactly what needs to be done, but you find yourself scrolling the internet instead. Task paralysis, perfectionism, and overthinking can block anyone. Unblocked is not another complicated time management system or a guilt-inducing to-do list. It is an emergency tool focused on one thing: taking the first step. How does it work? -You add a task you have been putting off. -The app helps you break it down into simple, 2 to 5-minute micro-steps. -You start a 10-minute timer. -You complete the task step by step, checking them off the list. -After 10 minutes, you celebrate your success and decide: take a break or keep going. What you will find in the app: -Start Mode: guided focus for the first 10 minutes of work. -Micro-steps: turn overwhelming projects into ridiculously easy actions. -Streak tracking: monitor your days without procrastination and build momentum. -Statistics: check your progress and analyze your best working hours. -Simplicity: a clean interface that does not distract or overwhelm you. The basic version allows you to test the method with a limited number of daily tasks and steps. You can remove these limits by upgrading to the Pro version, which unlocks unlimited tasks, full history, advanced statistics, smart breakdown suggestions, dark mode, and cloud sync across devices.

Your to-do list keeps growing, time keeps slipping, and starting feels impossible. Beacon is the calm, ADHD-friendly way to finally get things done, one gentle step at a time. Beacon is a reminders app built for the way real brains actually work, especially brains that get overwhelmed by long lists, lose track of time, or freeze at the thought of beginning. Think of it as a calm external brain: it remembers, times, and shrinks your tasks, so you do not have to hold it all in your head. WHY BEACON FEELS DIFFERENT One thing at a time. Beacon shows your next action, not your entire backlog. Less overwhelm, more starting. Time you can actually see. Every task has a calm countdown, so "later" stops turning into "too late." No red alarms, no panic. Kind on the hard days. Miss something? There is no shaming OVERDUE, no broken streak, no guilt. Beacon reframes gently and celebrates every win, the small ones too. Shrink the first step. Any task can collapse into a two-minute starting move, so the hardest part, beginning, gets easier. Park it, guilt-free. Not ready today? Set a task aside in the Parking Lot and Beacon brings it back softly when the time is right. Nothing gets lost. WORKS WITH WHAT YOU ALREADY USE Beacon sits on top of Apple Reminders and Calendar, so you keep everything you already rely on. Say a reminder to Siri and it shows up in Beacon, sorted and doable. Check it off in Beacon and it syncs right back. No migration, no starting over. WHAT YOU GET Smart capture: brain-dump a messy thought and Beacon finds the task and the time for you. Focus timer and body-double sessions to help you start and keep going. Energy tags to match tasks to how you actually feel right now. Gentle, well-timed nudges instead of a wall of notifications. Home Screen widgets, Lock Screen Live Activities, and an Apple Watch app, so your next step is always a glance away. Private by design: no account, no tracking, no cloud sync. The only thing Beacon ever sends is an anonymous crash report. WHO IT IS FOR Beacon was made for people with ADHD, and that turns out to be a lot of us: anyone who has felt buried by their own list, lost time without meaning to, or been too hard on themselves for it.
