About

Heida

Features
Read full description

A life-OS task manager, built for iPhone in pure SwiftUI. Most task apps tell you what's left. Heida tells you what got done — and where in your life it landed. ◎ TAG TASKS BY LIFE AREA Six categories ship preset — Fitness, Work, Personal, Health, Finance, Learning — each in its own color. Rename them, recolor them, add your own. Every task carries its area through the list, calendar, and dashboard. ◎ MONTHLY GOALS YOU CAN SEE Set how many tasks you want to complete in each life area each month. A ring on the dashboard fills toward that target. Flag specific tasks as monthly goals and they pin to the top. ◎ A DASHBOARD THAT CONFESSES Per-category completion rings. Where your effort actually went. Month-over-month delta. A 30-day sparkline per area. Plan next month before it arrives. ◎ RECURRING TASKS, WITHOUT THE SPAM Daily, weekly, monthly. Complete one and the next instance schedules itself — same category, same priority, same goal flag. ◎ DATE-BASED REMINDERS + SMART NUDGES Every dated task fires a 9 AM notification on that day. Plus a randomized "nudge" rhythm you control, mixed across tasks, habits, and anchors. ◎ THREE LAYERS, ONE APP TODAY — tasks you want to ship before the day ends. DAILY — habits with streaks that compound. ANCHORS — principles, mantras, lessons you want to keep in mind. ◎ ONE PRICE, FOREVER $7.99 once. 7-day free trial. No subscription. No ads. No data harvesting. Your tasks live in a local SwiftData database on your phone — nothing leaves the device. WHY HEIDA? "Heida" is Old Norse for bright, clear. The state of mind we built this for. Heida is made by FlowStack LLC, an independent studio. One person, one app, no investors. We answer at hello@heida.app.

Capacify is an energy budgeting app for ADHD, autistic, and neurodivergent people whose normal to-do list keeps lying to them. Instead of pretending every task costs the same, Capacify lets you give each task an EP cost, set today's actual capacity, and see what realistically fits. When a task feels too boring, too big, or too loaded, AI reframes it in a voice that actually gets you moving. Use Capacify to: - Set a daily energy budget - Add tasks with realistic EP costs - See only the tasks that fit your current capacity - Reframe tasks with playful, direct, cozy, chaotic, or custom voices - Build your own custom personality for nudges that sound right to you - Track patterns over time without turning your life into a productivity spreadsheet Capacify is built for ADHD and autistic brains, burnout recovery, low-energy and low-spoon days, executive dysfunction, sensory and chronic overwhelm, and any neurodivergent mind that needs a more honest way to plan. This is not a medical app, therapy app, or diagnosis tool. It is planning support with a little bite: part energy budget, part task manager, part motivational translator. Bandwidth is finite. Chores can wait. Pick what fits today. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.capacify.app/terms
