Read full description

Tofu is a tiny bunny taskmaster who lives on your screen and chases the todos you've been avoiding. He doesn't accept "tomorrow." He doesn't accept "I'm tired." He nags. He stares. He waits. WHAT TOFU DOES • Captures your tasks into Inbox, Today, and Now buckets • Pulls you into focused work sessions (Pomodoro under the hood, role-play on the surface) • Counts down the day so you can see how much daylight you've actually got left • Reacts to what you do — finishing things makes him smug, dragging your feet makes him impatient WHAT TOFU IS NOT • Not another minimalist planner you'll forget about in a week • Not a study companion (you can study with him, but he doesn't care about your subject) • Not a productivity app that pretends to be your friend — he's your taskmaster, you're his boss THE EXPERIENCE A character-driven todo list where the character actually has opinions. Tofu doesn't celebrate every checkbox. He notices when you've been ignoring something for three days. He'll roast you. (Lovingly.) If you've tried six task apps and bounced off all of them, the problem might be that none of them were rude enough. WHO IT'S FOR • Procrastinators who need an external nag (looking at you, ADHD brain) • Anyone with deadline anxiety who wants a tiny cute thing to stare them down • People who like character-driven apps over sterile productivity tools • Anyone who wants their daily checklist to feel less like work and more like a bit WHO IT'S NOT FOR • People who already love their existing planner • Anyone who wants pure utility with no personality • Productivity purists who'd find Tofu's commentary distracting Subscriptions auto-renew unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.

You know what you mean. Candor helps you say it at work: clearly, confidently, without overthinking. One short lesson a day for the messages, meetings and hard conversations in your job. Freeze up in meetings? Over-explain in emails? Soften your point until it disappears, or dread telling your manager no? Each lesson shows where the message goes wrong, teaches one framework that fixes it, shows a strong example, then lets you practice on real work situations. A PLAN BUILT FOR YOUR JOB • A 2-minute set of questions finds what is holding your communication back at work. • One short, tap-through lesson a day, picked for your answers. • Real frameworks, not vague tips: the clear ask, the clear no, feedback people can act on, disagreeing without friction, managing up. EVERY LESSON, WHEN YOU NEED IT • Today's lesson waits on Home. • Every lesson is in one list, so you can practice the one you need before a meeting. • A daily reminder at the time you choose. On iOS 26, you can make it ring like an alarm so it is harder to miss. Whether you are managing up, giving feedback, setting a boundary with a coworker, or just trying to sound as capable as you are in the room, Candor helps you say it with candor. Candor is free to download. Full access requires an auto-renewing subscription. Cancel anytime.
