Twelve weeks. One real shot. A year is too long to stay motivated and too easy to put off. Twelo borrows the proven idea behind the 12-week year: work in short, focused cycles that are urgent enough to take seriously and long enough to ship something real. Pick what matters, break it into weekly moves, and track your progress like a season — not a calendar. HOW IT WORKS • Start a 12-week cycle and give it a name and a start date. • Choose one to three goals that actually matter for this cycle. • Break each goal into weekly tasks you can check off. • Schedule a task to a specific day and add a reminder so nothing slips. • Open Focus to see exactly what's due today and across the week. • Reflect every week — log your wins, struggles, and lessons, score the week, and roll forward. WHY 12 WEEKS Annual goals fail because the deadline feels far away. A 12-week cycle creates a finish line you can see from the start, so every week counts. When the cycle ends, you review what worked, then start fresh — stronger each time. FEATURES • 12-week cycles with a visual progress wheel • 1–3 focus goals per cycle, each with its own color and progress • Weekly tasks with day scheduling and one-tap completion • Reminders powered by local notifications — get nudged on the right day • Focus view: today's tasks and the rest of your week at a glance • All-weeks overview to plan the whole cycle ahead • Weekly and end-of-cycle reflection: wins, struggles, lessons, and a week score • iCloud sync across your iPhone — your data follows you • Works fully offline with on-device storage if you prefer • Import and export your data as JSON — your goals are yours to keep • Localized in 9 languages, including full right-to-left support • Clean, native, distraction-free design built for iOS HONEST AND SIMPLE No ads. No subscriptions. No in-app purchases. No account required. Just a focused tool that helps you finish what you start. Set your next 12 weeks. Make them count.
