Nudge

Focus is hard when life keeps interrupting. Kids, coworkers, phone calls, that thing you just remembered — it all adds up. Most timer apps punish you for being human. Nudge doesn't. **KEY FEATURES** - Gentle timer that pauses without punishment — pause whenever life interrupts, resume when you're ready. No dead trees, no failed sessions, no guilt. - Background execution that actually works — lock your phone, switch apps, put it in your pocket. Your timer keeps running and alerts you when it's time. - Silent vibration mode (Library Safe) — a custom triple-pulse vibration pattern that works even on mute. Focus in libraries, open offices, and shared spaces without disturbing a soul. - Flexible presets — Pomodoro, countdown, or open-ended count-up mode. Build timers that match how you actually work, not how a textbook says you should. - Session history with honest stats — see your real focus time, pause count, and total duration. No inflated numbers, no gamified streaks to stress about. - Smart defaults & day context — time-of-day greetings, remembered last preset, auto-start breaks. Nudge learns how you work and gets out of the way. **WHY NUDGE?** We built Nudge because every focus timer we tried made us feel worse. Paused? Failed session. Locked your phone? Timer stopped. Need silence? Too bad, here's an alarm. Nudge is different: - No shame for pausing. Life happens. Your timer understands. - ADHD-friendly. Flexible structures instead of rigid 25/5 boxes. Time awareness without time pressure. - Warm, not aggressive. Amber glow instead of red alerts. Encouraging copy instead of streaks and punishments. - One-time purchase. No subscriptions draining your account every month. **WHAT'S INCLUDED FREE** - Classic Pomodoro timer (25/5) - Up to 3 custom presets - Full session history - Silent vibration alerts - Background timer execution - All core features, no ads, no account required **NUDGE PRO — $6.99 (one-time)** - Unlimited custom presets - Per-timer analytics and breakdowns - Time awareness mode (periodic gentle nudges for time-blindness) - Shortcuts integration - CSV data export - Priority support All your data stays on your device. No account needed. No tracking. Just you and your focus.

ZingDo is a daily planner and to-do list for anyone who struggles to get started — built with ADHD and busy, distractible minds in mind. Instead of a blank to-do list that stares back at you, ZingDo turns a messy brain dump into a clear, doable plan — then shows you the one thing to do right now. WHY ZINGDO • Beat the blank page. Dump everything in your head — typed or spoken — and ZingDo shapes it into tasks and subtasks. • One thing at a time. The Focus screen shows your next task with a countdown timer, so you're never deciding what's next. • Let AI pick what's next. Stuck with time to spare? ZingDo ranks your backlog and picks the single best task to do right now — and tells you why — so you beat procrastination instead of doom-scrolling a list. • No setup, no account. No signup, no login, no email. Open it and go. STAY ON TRACK, EVERYWHERE • Home-screen widgets — see your next task, or your whole day at a glance, without opening the app. • Dynamic Island & Lock Screen — start a Focus session and your countdown timer lives right there. Pause, add time, or finish without unlocking your phone. • Reminders that reach you — a gentle nudge before each task, with time-sensitive alerts that can break through Focus and Do Not Disturb so you don't miss a start. AI ON EVERY iPHONE — YOUR CHOICE ZingDo plans your day with AI on any supported iPhone. On Apple Intelligence devices (iPhone 15 Pro and newer Pro models) you can run planning fully on-device — nothing leaves your phone, and it works offline. On other devices, planning uses a privacy-respecting cloud service: only the text of your brain dump is sent to build your plan, and no copies or logs are kept. You choose your mode in onboarding and can change it anytime in Settings. Either way, your tasks and notes are stored on your device and your own private iCloud. YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS Your tasks, notes, and plans are saved on your device and synced through your own private iCloud — never our servers. We don't store your data and we can't see it. Use the same iCloud account on another iPhone or iPad and everything's already there — no app account, no password, nothing to set up. You can turn sync off anytime in Settings. A SMART BACKLOG, NOT A GUILT PILE Tasks you don't get to roll into a backlog instead of stacking up as red overdue badges. When a gap opens before your next thing, tap "Let AI pick" and ZingDo chooses a backlog task that actually fits the time you have — or browse and pick one yourself. It's lightweight time blocking and prioritizing, without the overwhelm. WHAT'S INSIDE • Tasks — today's schedule at a glance, add anything inline. • AI Plan — brain dump by voice or text, preview the plan, then add it to your day. • Focus — your next task, a countdown timer, and AI that picks the right backlog task to fill spare time. • Widgets & Live Activity — your next task and Focus timer on the Home Screen, Lock Screen, and Dynamic Island. • Settings — choose your AI mode, manage your subscription, restore purchases, and reset all data anytime. BUILT FOR FOCUS, NOT FRICTION ZingDo is intentionally small. No streaks to maintain, no guilt, no endless configuration. Just plan, focus, repeat — daily planning, time management, and getting things done made simple, and friendly to ADHD and neurodivergent minds. PRICING Start with a 7-day free trial — everything unlocked. After that, continue with a monthly, 6-month, or yearly plan. Subscriptions are billed through your Apple ID and renew automatically until cancelled; manage or cancel anytime in your App Store account settings.
