Read full description

For ADHD and autistic brains, and the AuDHD overlap. ProAuDHDuctive is a productivity app that forgives missed days instead of punishing them. No streaks. No overdue red. No shame. KEY IDEAS - Tasks that don't get done roll forward quietly with a small "moved forward · N×" label, not a red warning. - Skipped routine days simply vanish for the day - no pile-up. - A sensory-friendly palette (three muted themes) and a reduced-motion toggle. THE BASICS - A single Today view with four lanes - Morning, Midday, Evening, Anytime. - Add a task with just a title. Energy level and rough time-of-day are opt-in chips. - Tap any task to break it into small steps, park it, skip it for the day, or remove it. ROUTINES THAT FORGIVE - Daily, weekly, every-N-days, or monthly recurrence. - Pause without deleting. Restore an accidental skip even hours later. - A skipped day never rolls forward. SECOND BRAIN - Brain Dump: a frictionless inbox for messy thoughts. Type or hold-to-speak. - Voice transcription is on-device. Audio is never stored or transmitted. - An optional AI assistant turns brain dumps into tasks, breaks a stuck task into small steps, suggests next actions based on your energy, and chats about your day. YOUR CHOICE OF AI (or none) - All AI features fall back to built-in templates if no model is configured. - Bring your own provider - Local (a model you run on your own network — data never leaves), OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, or any OpenAI-compatible host. - Each AI feature has its own opt-out toggle. A privacy blurb under the picker names exactly what gets sent and where. MORNING SUMMARY - An optional, calm daily notification listing what's planned. Local-only — no servers, no remote push. PRIVACY BY DESIGN - No accounts, no tracking, no analytics, no ads. - Your tasks, routines, brain dumps, and chat history live on your device. - See the full privacy policy at the URL below.

tasks that bend with your brain. some days you can take on the world. some days you can barely take on your phone. cloudlist sorts your tasks by the energy they take, so what fits your current state rises to the top. made for adhd brains. built around how your day actually moves. how it works: when you open cloudlist, you do a quick brain check-in. foggy, okay-ish, or sparking. cloudlist then sorts your tasks into two lists: now (what fits your energy) and next (what's saved for later). what you can do rises. what you can't waits without judgment. every task gets tagged with an energy level (low, med, high) and an estimated time. tasks sort by what fits your brain. pro users can flag a specific task to stay on top when something genuinely matters more. what's inside: energy-based task sorting - brain check-in maps to what shows up. brain dump - type a tangled mess, cloudlist sorts it into tasks for you. break it down - big task? cloudlist can split it into micro-steps you can actually start. focus mode - a pomodoro timer sized to your attention span. you set it once, it remembers. still here - a gentle section for tasks that have been waiting a few days. no judgment, just a nudge. gentle streaks - they forgive missed days. progress isn't a punishment. three themes - golden hour, first light, dusk. pick the sky that fits. your journey - a quiet record of the days you showed up. a quick note on ai: three features (brain dump, break it down, daily reflection) use anthropic's claude. you turn these on if you want them. anthropic doesn't store or train on your data. you can change your mind anytime. free to start: up to 10 active tasks, 1 brain dump per day, 1 break-it-down per day, last 7 days of history, all three themes. cloudlist pro: unlimited tasks, unlimited brain dumps, unlimited break-it-downs, priority flagging (flagged tasks stay on top), a daily nudge for tasks that have been waiting, ambient focus sounds, full month of cloud history, a weekly free streak pass, and early access to new features. subscription details: cloudlist pro is available as a weekly, monthly, or yearly subscription. a 7-day free trial is available on your first subscription. prices in usd; local prices shown at purchase. subscriptions auto-renew unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the current period ends. manage or cancel anytime in your apple id subscription settings. privacy policy: germsfree.github.io/cloudlist-site/privacy terms of use: germsfree.github.io/cloudlist-site/terms made for the brains that need it cloudlist is made by a solo developer with an adhd brain, for people whose to-do lists have outlived three other apps. it's not a system. it's not a transformation. it's just a softer way to hold what you're trying to do. cloudlist is a productivity tool designed with adhd in mind. it is not a medical device and does not diagnose, treat, or replace professional care. ready when you are.
