About

Sorted List

Features
Read full description

Sorted List is a simple, focused list app that keeps your grocery runs fast and stress-free. MULTIPLE LISTS Create as many lists as you need - one for the supermarket, one for the hardware store, one for every occasion. CATEGORIES Organise items within each list using custom categories. Drag and drop the categories into whatever order makes sense for the way you walk through the store. CHECK ITEMS OFF AS YOU SHOP Swipe an item to the right to mark it as checked, or tap the checkmark button. A quick UNDO snackbar appears so you can reverse an accidental check in seconds. REVIEW WHAT YOU'VE ALREADY PICKED UP A dedicated Checked Items view shows everything you have already put in your trolley. You can uncheck individual items to move them back to your active list, or delete all checked items in one tap to reset the list for next time. QUANTITIES Add an optional quantity to any item so you always know exactly how many you need. FULLY OFFLINE - NO ACCOUNT REQUIRED All your data is stored locally on your device. No sign-up, no cloud sync, no subscription. Your lists are always available, even without internet access. SIMPLE AND FAST SortedList is intentionally lightweight. No ads, no tracking, no bloat. Just a clean interface that gets out of your way while you shop.

Plan Ahead Calendar

Most planning apps want you perfect. Plan Ahead wants you here. This is a weekly planner for people who actually have lives. Miss a Tuesday, comeback Wednesday. Hit 60% of your week, still a win. Disappear for two weeks, there's a path back, not a guilt trip. We didn't build another task list. We built a planner that learns YOU. WHAT IT KNOWS ABOUT YOU (after a week or two) - What drains your Mondays - What keeps getting in the way (phone, mood, that one meeting) - Where your hours actually go vs. where you swore they would - Which goals are becoming habits vs. which are still wishful thinking It tells you. Sharply on good days, gently on bad ones. THE STREAK THAT BENDS 60% completion still counts. Life happens. Your streak doesn't have to die because Thursday went sideways. We track consistency over perfection β€” because perfection is a lie productivity apps tell you. REFLECTION IN 30 SECONDS At day's end: one tap for energy, one tap for what got in your way, one line for tomorrow's priority. That priority becomes tomorrow's first task no retyping. The whole review is faster than your evening scroll. A REAL COMEBACK PATH Vanish for 14 days? You come back to "welcome back," not "you broke a 47-day streak." Paused goals wait for you. Lifetime stats are still yours. No shame screens. No guilt push. PRIDE WITHOUT PERFORMANCE A quiet card notes what you did right today. No streak shame. No confetti spam. No fake celebration. Just the truth, said out loud, once. HABITS YOU CAN FEEL Recurring goals graduate through tiers: Seed β†’ Forming β†’ Habit. You watch consistency turn into identity. Not at week 100. Around week 4. NOTIFICATIONS THAT DON'T BEG Two pings per day, max. Quiet hours respected. If you deny permission, we ask again in 3 days β€” not 3 hours. We're not building another attention vampire. THE TONE Sharp humor on good days. Warm hand on bad ones. No motivational quotes. No toxic positivity. Just a planner that talks to you like a friend who's seen your screen time and still likes you. INSIDE β€” Daily, weekly, monthly views β€” Goals: count or duration, weekly or one-time β€” Recurring habit tracking with formation tiers β€” Morning ritual + daily review β€” Time by category, obstacle patterns, energy trends β€” Lifetime stats that grow with you β€” Bilingual: English & TΓΌrkΓ§e β€” Share your week (not your shame) PRIVATE BY DEFAULT Your data is yours. No ads. No paywall halfway through your evening review. Sign in once, stay signed in. Plan Ahead. Live present. Show up Tuesday too.
