TaskLock is a to-do list, habit tracker and calendar for iPhone and Apple Watch with a built-in app blocker. Choose the apps that distract you, and they stay locked until you finish the task, complete the habit or the event ends. No timer to wait out, no "ignore limit" button: you stay focused until the work is actually done. HOW IT WORKS 1. Add a task, habit or event, or sync your Apple Calendar. 2. Pick the apps, categories or websites to lock: Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, games, anything you choose. 3. Opening a locked app shows a shield with the tasks still keeping it locked. 4. Check the task off on your iPhone or Apple Watch and the apps unlock. Locks are optional. Without one, TaskLock is a simple, fast to-do list. APP LOCKING • Lock until a task or habit is done, or for the length of an event, such as "Study" from 2 to 4 pm. • Lock single apps, whole categories like Social or Games, and websites. • Lock groups: save sets like "Social media" and assign them in one tap. • Start a lock later in the day. • Stay honest: a confirmation countdown before completing or removing a lock, and a daily limit on lock changes. Set it to "no changes" for strict mode. TASKS • One daily card with today's tasks, events and habits, other days a swipe away. • Timeline of everything past and upcoming, with filters. • Move missed tasks to today in one tap. Move or copy any task to another day. • Saved task lists for things you add often. • Reminders, notes, links with previews, locations, search and Control Center quick add. HABITS • Every day, chosen weekdays or every N days, up to several times a day. • Streaks, a history strip and a progress page with rings. • Skip a day, change today only, or edit from today on while past records stay intact. • Habit lists such as "Morning routine". CALENDAR • Two-way sync with Apple Calendar, including iCloud, Google and other accounts on your iPhone. • Private calendars that live only in TaskLock. • Timed and all-day events, repeat rules from daily to custom, reminders, locations and meeting links. APPLE WATCH, WIDGETS AND LIVE ACTIVITIES • Watch app: see today's plan, add tasks and events, and check off a task to unlock apps on your iPhone. Complications and Smart Stack widgets included. • Home Screen widgets, plus Live Activities on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island. DESIGN • Minimalist, one main screen. Light and dark themes, nine accent colors or your own, alternative app icons. Available in 29 languages. PRIVACY • No account, no sign-up. Your data stays on your iPhone, and the app works offline. Optional backup to your own iCloud Drive. • App blocking runs on Apple's Screen Time framework. TaskLock cannot see what you do in other apps. PRICE Free to download. The free version limits how many tasks, habits and events you can create. TaskLock Premium removes those limits. Made for students, remote workers and anyone who wants their phone to wait until the work is done.

About

SpeechDraft

Read full description

You have a speech to give — a wedding toast, a keynote, a eulogy, a pitch. SpeechDraft is the whole job in one app: plan the speech block by block (opening, story, point, toast), write every word right inside the blocks, rehearse it against the clock, and stand up with full-screen cue cards or a teleprompter that follows your plan. From first idea to public speaking — plan it, write it, say it on time. PLAN IT BLOCK BY BLOCK • Over 25 templates shaped by how great speeches actually work — wedding speeches, best man, maid of honor, father or mother of the bride, keynotes, investor pitches, stand-up sets, storytelling nights, eulogies, the 90-second job-interview answer, master of ceremonies, panel moderating and more • Every block carries a coaching hint: what belongs there and why — shown on the part you are about to write • Set a target length and watch the total build as you plan • Set the date you speak, and the home screen counts down to it WRITE IT IN PLACE • Speech writing where the structure is: every word lives inside its block — no separate document to lose • Add photos or illustrations to your cue cards • Reorder with a drag when the story wants a different shape DELIVER IT WITH CONFIDENCE • Full-screen cue cards with a pace line per card: it fills as you speak, turns amber when it's time to land, red if you've gone over • A teleprompter that takes its pace from the timings you set — "Match my plan" solves the scroll rate that lands the speech exactly on time, and a pace chip flags the moment you drift • One big total clock — so you always know if the speech fits the slot • Dark stage mode, adjustable text size, and the screen stays awake • Tap either side or swipe to move — works with a thumb, from a podium • Finish inside your plan and the closing check turns green WHEN YOU NEED PAPER OR WANT TO SHARE • Export a clean PDF, Word or Excel rundown of the whole speech • Preview matches the export exactly PRICING SpeechDraft is free to try: build and write your first two speeches in full, take the first three cards on stage — on the cue cards and the teleprompter alike — and export a PDF with a small SpeechDraft mark. One purchase — no subscription — unlocks unlimited speeches, the whole speech on stage, and clean PDF, Word & Excel exports. Works on iPhone, iPad and Mac (Apple Silicon) — start on one device and finish on another. Made by Vardnir — in Norway.
