Let The Rest Go vs PaceRing

Let The Rest Go is a focus app built around one constraint: you only get six slots. Not sixty. Not sixteen. Six. Your most important thing sits on top as your current focus. The rest stack behind it, waiting. When you finish the top one, swipe right — it moves to your archive, and the next thing rises. If something doesn't deserve your attention anymore, swipe left and let it go. That's the whole app. – SIX ITEMS, HARD LIMIT The ceiling is the point. It forces you to choose what actually matters, instead of collecting everything in another pile you'll eventually ignore. – SWIPE TO CLEAR No checkboxes, no tags, no categories. One gesture per direction, both meaningful. – ARCHIVE OF WINS Completed items stack into a trophy tower you can browse by day, week, month, or year. Search by title when you need to find something specific. – NEXT UP A six-item bench for the seventh thing. Somewhere to put it without breaking the six-item ceiling, and nowhere near enough room to become another backlog. – WIDGETS Put your current focus on your home screen so you can't forget what it is. – FULL VERSION Your complete archive, all the way back, and iCloud sync across your devices — the same stack, in the same order, on every device you own. One purchase, once. Never a subscription. – NO TRACKING, NO ACCOUNTS, NO SUBSCRIPTION No analytics, no ads, nothing collected about you, and no monthly fee. Sync uses your own iCloud — your data stays in your personal account, private to you. No account to create, no server of ours. Not for everyone. If you need due dates, reminders, projects, labels, teams, or any of the usual task-app machinery, this isn't it. If you've already tried three task apps this year and ended up drowning in them, maybe this is.

Keep your talk on time without losing your flow. PaceRing shows the time with large digits and a clear colour ring. As time runs short, the screen changes from yellow to red, so you can check your pace at a glance—even from the front of the room. It’s a handy companion for conference talks, lectures, speeches, pitches and rehearsals. It also works well for mock exams, practice questions, reading and 25-minute focus sessions. WHAT YOU’LL SEE • Large countdown digits that are easy to read from the podium • A circular progress ring—drag its tip to adjust the remaining time • Yellow and red warning stages that show your pace without words • Bell, vibration and full-screen flashing in any combination you choose • Optional overtime counting when you go beyond your planned time MADE FOR REAL TALKS • Set hours, minutes and seconds, including timers longer than one hour • Keeps the display awake while the timer is running • Sends local alerts even when the screen is locked or the app is in the background • Available in Japanese, English, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese and Korean PAY ONCE, KEEP IT The Standard Upgrade removes ads and adds more colour themes, digit fonts and alarm sounds, along with overtime tracking, warning bells, presets and planned-versus-actual comparisons. The Advanced Pack adds every appearance option, multi-stage presentation timers, saved plans, alerts for each stage and rehearsal history. There are no monthly or annual subscriptions.
