Mote vs Labyrinth

Mote is a quiet task app for catching fleeting thoughts — and letting them become action when you have the time. Thoughts arrive like motes of dust in morning light: a small idea, a thing to do, gone in a second if you don't catch it. Mote catches them, and keeps your days clear and unhurried. — Open to today — Mote opens to this week, with today already in view. The past steps aside; empty days stay empty. What you need to do is simply, neatly, under each day. — Catch it in a tap — One tap to note a thought. Tag it if you like, give it a day if you know one. Don't know yet? Leave it in "Unscheduled" — pull it into a day whenever you're ready. — Browse by gesture — Swipe to move through your weeks. Pinch to zoom between week, month, and year. Swipe a task left to finish or delete, right to reschedule. The interface gets out of the way. — Made to feel light — Warm, paper-like tones. Generous whitespace. A single accent of color. Finishing something gives a small, satisfying spark — never a nag. Mote keeps everything on your device. No account, no clutter, no pressure. Catch the thought.
