4ToDo rethinks how you manage your life. Instead of boring checklists, every task, routine, and goal is a visual progress bar β€” you see exactly where you stand at a glance. TASKS β€” ORGANIZED BY CATEGORY Create categories like Home, Work, Tech, or Travel. Each category shows a bold progress card with a colored accent bar and a live percentage. Tap into a category to see all tasks sorted by due date. Add subtasks to break down complex projects β€” the progress bar fills as you check them off. ROUTINES β€” NEVER FORGET RECURRING TASKS Track recurring maintenance tasks like reading the electricity meter, changing filters, backing up photos, or rotating tires. Set intervals from daily to yearly, or define a custom cycle (every X days). Each routine has its own color and icon. The urgency fill shifts from calm to amber to red as the deadline approaches. One tap to mark it done and reset the timer. GOALS β€” THREE WAYS TO TRACK Set personal goals with the tracking mode that fits: - Counter β€” Big +/- buttons for step-by-step tracking (books read, recipes cooked, trails hiked) - Value β€” Enter custom amounts (kilometers run, hours practiced) - Slider β€” Drag to set your progress visually Add milestones to goals and tap to mark them as reached. The app automatically updates your progress when you hit a milestone. RADAR β€” YOUR COMMAND CENTER The Radar page answers one question: What should I do next? It shows your closest goal at the top, overdue items that need attention, and a unified timeline of everything coming up over the next 14 days β€” grouped by day. Tap any item to open it. Hit the checkmark to complete it instantly. This Week shows how many things you finished on each day of the week. MADE FOR IPHONE DUO Fully open, your overview and your list sit side by side. Closed and turned sideways, the same two halves stand next to each other. Half open, a golden light bar fills with your progress, and nothing you read or tap lies in the fold. Folding keeps your place: the tab, open sheets, what you typed and where you scrolled. TEXT THAT FITS YOUR EYES Every screen follows your text size, up to the largest accessibility sizes. BUILT FOR RELIABILITY - Automatic backups every 7 days, plus manual backup on demand - Import and export your data as JSON - Restore from any of your last 7 backups - Local notifications with reminders for tasks, routines, and goals β€” tap one to open it right away - All data stored locally on your device β€” nothing leaves your phone DESIGN PHILOSOPHY 4ToDo uses a striking dark theme with yellow accents and 8 category colors. Every element communicates status visually through progress bars. No clutter, no complexity β€” just a clear view of what matters. Built by robspace.

Tired of endless to-do lists that only cause anxiety? Most task managers eventually turn into "task graveyards," leaving you with nothing but stress and guilt over unfulfilled plans. Maybe changes the rules. It’s not just a storage for chores; it’s a minimalist tool designed to beat procrastination and gently guide you into a state of flow. Just do what you choose. WHY IT WORKS Maybe is built on the psychology of Mark Forster's FVP (Final Version Perfected) method. You don't force yourself into a rigid schedule or blindly follow a top-down list. Instead, you intuitively build a "chain" of tasks, selecting what you are actually ready to tackle right now. This eliminates the dread of routine: complete easy tasks, build momentum, and crush complex projects riding a wave of dopamine! WHAT’S INSIDE MAYBE: β—ˆ THE MASTER PLAN Offload everything spinning in your head. Use the chain method to intuitively highlight what's most important for today, without overwhelming yourself. β—ˆ "IN PROGRESS" MODE (Pure Focus) Once your chain is ready, all the clutter disappears. It’s just you and 3–5 tasks in perfect order. No visual noiseβ€”only deep concentration. β—ˆ SMART AI INPUT Save time: dictate your thoughts on the go or snap a photo of a notebook page. The smart scanner will extract the tasks and format them into clear, actionable steps. β—ˆ CALENDAR CONTEXT Your Apple Calendar events are visible right inside your to-do list. You instantly see how much real time you have for tasks, helping you avoid burnout. β—ˆ "FOR LATER" ZONE Not relevant today? Move it out of sight. Your workspace should remain perfectly clean. THE KILLER FEATURE: COMPLETION RITUAL Completing tasks in Maybe feels physical. We added powerful haptics and the satisfying sound of a successful Apple Pay transaction. Your brain gets an instant dopamine reward for every completed block of tasks, turning routine into a highly satisfying experience. AESTHETICS & TECH β€’ Minimalist, distraction-free design. β€’ Smooth micro-animations and intuitive gestures. β€’ Lightning-fast offline mode (Offline-first) with instant cross-device synchronization when you're back online. β€’ Elegant widgets for your iOS Home Screen. WHO IS IT FOR? β€’ Minimalists tired of bloated, overly complex corporate planners. β€’ People with ADHD and those prone to procrastination. β€’ Anyone who wants to regain control of their time without the stress. Stop just planning. Start living, focusing, and taking action with Maybe! Privacy Policy: https://maybe.do/privacy Terms of Use (EULA): https://maybe.do/terms
