99 Tasks vs Folio

I got 99 tasks, but distraction ain't one. Most task apps trap you in an infinite backlog of forgotten to-dos, complex project hierarchies, and monthly subscription taxes. 99 Tasks cuts through the noise. It gives you exactly 99 private, local-first slots for your active work — calls, payments, errands, follow-ups, and reminders. When your stack is full, you finish what's there before adding more. The constraint IS the superpower. What you can do in 30 seconds: • Capture a task by typing — natural language parses categories, due dates, and slots inline • Tap a row's icons to set focus, important, My Day, reminder, notes, or clear • Swipe left to clear, swipe right to focus • Find any task by what it means, not just the words you used • Set a local reminder in one tap • Plan your day with My Day — the app suggests overdue and due-today items for you Why 99 Tasks instead of another todo app: • Exactly 99 slots. No infinite backlog. No boards. No projects. • Local-first. Your tasks live on your device. Sync is optional, not required. • No account. No email. No password. Open the app and start. • One-time $4.99 Lifetime. No monthly subscription. Three days free to try everything. • On-device semantic search — your task contents never leave your device. • iOS home-screen widget in three sizes. Mac menu bar companion. Built for: • People with too many task apps who keep starting new ones • Founders, operators, freelancers, and builders who live in many apps • Anyone with attention friction who benefits from a fixed visual stack • Mac users who want a menu bar task companion • People who want a private paid utility instead of another account-based todo app

PIN, REMIND & SHARE • Pin one note to your Lock Screen so it stays in view • Reminders on any note, scheduled on your device • Share individual notes with people you choose — only invitees can see them PRIVATE BY DESIGN • No accounts, no ads — we never see your notes • Enhance with AI runs entirely on your device using Apple Intelligence — nothing about your notes is ever sent anywhere • Your notes stay on your device except through your own iCloud (Folio Pro) or when you choose to share one • Folio sends anonymous usage analytics — like app opens and which features you use — to help us improve it. It's on by default and never includes your notes, photos, or anything you write; turn it off anytime in Settings, which also deletes what was already collected Folio is for people who want a notes app that's quick, beautiful, and quietly respectful of their data.
