Been A Minute vs One Thing

You know that thing you definitely did recently? It's been a minute. Been A Minute tracks the time since the last time anything happened. Watered the plant. Called your mom. Changed the air filter. Went to the gym. You log it once, and the app quietly counts up from there — no streaks to break, no daily nags, no guilt. Just an honest number and a calendar that remembers better than you do. Tap "I JUST DID IT" and the counter resets to zero with a satisfying comic BAM. The old stretch gets banked to your history, so you can finally answer the eternal question: wait… how long HAS it been? — TRACK ANYTHING — Habits you're proud of, chores you're avoiding, the oil change you keep postponing. Every entry is just "time since last reset." You decide whether that's a win or a wake-up call — pick an emoji and a color to set the mood. — I JUST DID IT — One tap resets the clock and bursts the screen. The elapsed stretch lands in your history, so the record builds itself. — SEE THE STORY — A full-bleed detail screen for every entry: the live counter, an exact breakdown ("1y · 2mo · 14d"), how many times you've reset, and a dry little voice line that has opinions about your life choices. — WIDGETS — Home screen and lock screen widgets put the count right where you'll see it. The plant doesn't water itself, but at least now you'll know. — GENTLE MILESTONE NUDGES — Optional notifications at 1 week, 1 month, 6 months, and 1 year. No daily pestering — just the calendar tapping you on the shoulder when it's genuinely been a while. Off by default. — YOURS, AND ONLY YOURS — No account. No sign-up. No tracking. No ads. Everything stays on your device and syncs across your own Apple devices through your private iCloud. We don't collect your data because we never see it. Track the things. Forget less. It's been a minute — let's find out exactly how long.

One Thing is a deliberately tiny task app for anyone who freezes in front of a long to-do list — especially ADHD brains. Instead of a wall of overdue items, it shows you exactly ONE thing to do right now, with a single big "Done" button. That's it. Come back after two minutes or two hundred days, and the screen looks the same. No streaks to break. No red badges. No shame. WHY ONE THING IS DIFFERENT • One task at a time — Your whole list is real, but you only ever see the next thing. Less overwhelm, more starting. • Break it down — When the one thing still feels too big to begin, tap "Break it down" and split it into tiny steps. The first small step becomes your new "right now." Momentum, not pressure. • Zero shame by design — No streaks, no penalties, no guilt-red badges. Miss a day or a month; nothing breaks. Pick up whenever you're ready. • Gentle reminders — Optional, fully under your control, with a soft chime instead of a jarring alarm. They never fire when your list is clear — the app won't nag you about nothing. • A calm widget — See your one thing on the Home Screen or Lock Screen, and check it off without even opening the app. • A little celebration — Finishing feels good. A quiet, rotating celebration marks each "Done." PRIVATE BY DESIGN One Thing collects no data — none. No account, no tracking, no analytics, no servers. Everything you write stays on your device. Privacy isn't a feature here; it's the foundation. Do the one thing. Breathe. That's enough.
