Dodot is a private productivity app for organizing tasks, plans, reminders, important dates, and everyday commitments at your own pace. Start with the Inbox: capture an idea, task, note, or link first, then decide later whether it belongs in Today, a project, a tag, or Someday. Each card can include start times, due dates, repeating reminders, priority, and notes, so you can keep the details you need without turning your task list into noise. Core features include: β€’ Inbox, Today, Calendar, Completed, and Deleted lists β€’ Local iOS notifications for tasks and reminders β€’ Home Screen widgets for quick access to your day and lists β€’ Share extension for adding text and web links from other apps β€’ Notes, priorities, dates, deadlines, and recurring tasks β€’ Theme and text size settings β€’ iCloud sync through Apple CloudKit across your own devices With optional Dodot Pro, you can unlock the complete workflow, including unlimited task cards, projects and folders, tags, subscription tracking, countdown and count-up days, additional views, and special themes. Dodot is designed with privacy in mind. The content you create, including tasks, countdowns, subscriptions, categories, and reminders, is stored on your device and in your personal iCloud account through Apple CloudKit. Dodot does not operate its own server and does not use third-party analytics, advertising, or tracking SDKs. The developer does not collect, upload, or store your personal data. Notification content is generated locally on your device, and Dodot Pro purchases and subscriptions are handled by Apple StoreKit. Dodot is for people who want a calm, private, long-term place for the things they need to do, remember, review later, or look forward to.

Orderly Plus unlocks unlimited Smart Schedule plans. Built for students, workers, and everyone else Orderly is simple enough for groceries and errands, but structured enough for coursework, client deadlines, repeating routines, and the quiet important things that usually lose to whatever feels urgent.
