Nudge
Read full descriptionHide full description
Focus is hard when life keeps interrupting. Kids, coworkers, phone calls, that thing you just remembered β it all adds up. Most timer apps punish you for being human. Nudge doesn't. **KEY FEATURES** - Gentle timer that pauses without punishment β pause whenever life interrupts, resume when you're ready. No dead trees, no failed sessions, no guilt. - Background execution that actually works β 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) β 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 β 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 β see your real focus time, pause count, and total duration. No inflated numbers, no gamified streaks to stress about. - Smart defaults & day context β 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 β $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.

Keep track of the things you want to try. Zuqori is an offline personal organizer where you save the names of movies, TV shows, books, games, restaurants, places, activities, and other things that interest you. Zuqori organizes only the information you enterβit does not provide, stream, download, scrape, or sell the listed content. BUILD YOUR QUEUE Add a name, choose a category, and optionally include a personal note or website link. You can also indicate where you found the suggestion, who you might try it with, or when you might want to try it. STAY ORGANIZED Search your Queue, filter it by category, and sort it by Recently Added, Oldest, or AβZ. Move selected items into Up Next and reorder them using the visible Drag control so your immediate choices remain easy to find. PICK FROM YOUR SAVED ITEMS Pick for Me makes a local, non-AI selection using only eligible names already saved in your Queue. It applies the Type, With, and When choices visibly selected on screen. It does not download, generate, or retrieve recommendations from an external service. REMEMBER WHAT YOU TRIED Mark an item as Tried and optionally select Loved it, It was okay, or Not for me. You can also add a private review note with or without selecting a reaction. Reactions and review notes remain visible independently in the itemβs details. The Tried tab keeps your completed items organized and lets you search or filter them by reaction and category. LOCAL AND STRAIGHTFORWARD Your entries are stored locally on your device and are not sent to a Zuqori server. Zuqori does not require an account, login, subscription, or in-app purchase. It contains no advertising, analytics, tracking, AI, or external recommendation service. Core organizer features work without an internet connection.
