Daily Frog vs Ivy6

I built this app for myself because I was tired of "productivity" apps that felt like more work than the work itself. I didn't need a complex project manager with endless sub-tasks and tag systems. I just needed to know what to do first. Eat the Frog is a minimalist daily planner built on two legendary productivity principles: the Ivy Lee Method and Brian Tracy’s "Eat That Frog" philosophy. The Rule is Simple: Every morning (or the night before), you define 6 tasks. 1. Task #1 is your Frog. The hardest, most important thing you’re avoiding. 2. Tasks #2–6 are your supporting goals. You do not move on until the Frog is eaten. Once it’s done, the rest of the day feels like a downhill coast. Why this app? •Focused Planning: You only get 6 slots. It forces you to choose what actually matters. •Premium Dark UI: Built with a slick charcoal and yellow aesthetic that looks professional and stays out of your way. •Smart Reminders: Set individual notifications for every task to keep your day on track. •Consistency Tracking: Track your progress with a streak system that runs Thursday to Wednesday. •Privacy First: No accounts. No cloud syncing. Your data never leaves your device. I use this every single morning to stay sane and productive. If you’re overwhelmed by a never-ending to-do list, maybe it’s time you just started eating your frogs.

SIX PRIORITIES. ONE CLEAR DAY. Long to-do lists create noise. Ivy6 helps you decide what truly matters, work on one task at a time, and end the day knowing you did the important things. Built on the Ivy Lee Method, a 100-year-old productivity ritual, Ivy6 gives you a calm daily planner for iPhone, iPad and Mac: 1. Capture everything in your Inbox. 2. Choose your six most important tasks. 3. Put them in order. 4. Work through them one at a time. 5. Plan tomorrow tonight, and start fresh in the morning. YOUR DAILY 6 Commit to no more than six priorities. The limit makes you choose deliberately instead of carrying an endless list from day to day. CAPTURE NOW, DECIDE LATER Ideas, errands and future tasks wait in your Inbox until they earn a place in your plan. Add estimates, subtasks, tags, snooze and recurring routines when you need them. FOCUS ON ONE TASK Start a distraction-free session for your current priority. Use a stopwatch, a 5-minute sprint, Pomodoro or a countdown, and see how much time you really give to meaningful work. PLAN TOMORROW TONIGHT In the evening, Ivy6 invites you to choose tomorrow's priorities in order. Unfinished tasks return to your Inbox for a conscious decision, so every morning starts clean.
