"Always working and no time for family..." "If I prioritize family, I have no time for my hobbies..." "Struggling to balance roles as an employee, father, husband, friend, and individual..." For those juggling the complexities of modern life, this is a completely new "puzzle-style" weekly schedule and habit-building app! "Habit Maker" is a time management diary that lets you design your week (24/7) by filling in blocks, just like a puzzle. By visualizing and arranging what you "want to do" and what you "must do," you will discover unexpected gaps in your schedule or time you've been overusing. Balance your time for what truly matters and design your ideal routine. โ What you can do with Habit Maker โ 1. List Life's Priorities with "Tags" Start by listing what's important in your life as tags: "Work," "Family," "Personal Time," "Sleep," etc. Create the essential elements that make up your life. Hierarchical tags (parent/child) allow for detailed organization. 2. Create "Patterns" for Each Day Create multiple schedule patterns for the same day, such as "Monday with Overtime (Pattern A)" and "Monday Leaving on Time (Pattern B)." Flexibly adapt to irregular daily schedules. 3. Manage Multiple Calendars Create and switch between multiple calendars for different purposes, like "Normal Work Week," "Long Vacation," or "Ideal Week," with just one tap. 4. Time Distribution Analysis (Pro Version) Tally your weekly time usage by tag and analyze it with beautiful pie charts! Perfect for checking your work-life balance, such as "What percentage is family time in my current design?" or "Am I working too much?" 5. Intuitive Puzzle-Style UI Place your created tags on the calendar as blocks. Easily move or resize them with drag-and-drop. Design your ideal week by making the most of "gap time" as if you were solving a puzzle. โ Recommended for: โ โข Those wanting to improve balance between work, parenting, and hobbies. โข Those wanting to secure time for morning routines or self-investment. โข Those struggling to maintain daily routines or habits. โข Those who couldn't stick with existing calendar or timetable apps. โข Those wanting to visually design their life's "portfolio." โ About Premium Features (Pro) โ While the free version is fully functional, upgrading to Pro unlocks: โข "Analysis Charts" to visualize time distribution. โข Completely Ad-Free experience. โข Unlimited Calendars, Day Patterns, and Tags. โข Beautiful "Gradient Color" settings for tags. The first step to reclaiming your life in a busy world. Why not design your best week ever with "Habit Maker"?

Some things are never finished for good. The trash goes out every Thursday. The water filter needs changing 180 days after the last one. The plants want water on their own schedule, not yours. Again is built for exactly those tasks โ the ones that come back. GIVE EVERY TASK ITS OWN RHYTHM โข On a schedule โ every day, week, two weeks, month, or year, at a time you pick. โข After completion โ a set number of days after you actually finish it. Do it three days late and everything after shifts with you, instead of nagging you about a date that's already gone. โข One-time โ for the things you only have to do once. They leave when they're done. A LIST THAT SORTS ITSELF Tasks line up by when they're ready, longest-waiting first, with a marker showing where "ready now" ends and "coming up" begins. Every row tells you where it stands โ ready 3 hours ago, ready in 5 days โ so a glance is enough. The app icon carries a badge with the count, so you know before you even open it. Swipe a task to finish it on iPhone and iPad, or tick it off on the Mac. Either way it quietly reschedules itself for next time. WORTH LOOKING AT โข Give any task an emoji, so you recognize it before you read it โข Nine color schemes โข Nine app icons to match, so your Home Screen matches your mood โข Light, dark, or follow the system ON ALL YOUR DEVICES Again runs on iPhone, iPad, and Mac, and keeps your tasks in step through your own iCloud account. There's no account to create, no password, and no server of ours in between. FREE, AND EVERYTHING FOREVER Track up to five tasks for free, with the Classic, Pride, and Trans Pride themes and matching icons. Everything Forever unlocks unlimited tasks, every color scheme, and every app icon. It's one purchase, not a subscription โ buy it once, keep it, and share it with your family. PRIVACY No ads, no tracking, no analytics, no data collection. Your tasks live on your device and in your own iCloud account, and nowhere else.
