Topmost
Read full descriptionHide full description
Topmost is the simplest possible to-do list. Everything goes on a single stack — and you only ever see the one thing on top. Add something new and it becomes the top. Resolve the top and the next thing rises. That's the whole app: one thing at a time, and you can't hide from it. Most to-do apps let you hoard. A 40-item list isn't a plan — it's a guilt museum. Topmost makes hoarding impossible by design. No backlog to scroll, no priorities to fiddle with, no "done" pile to admire. Just the thing in front of you, and the relief of an empty stack. THE REWARD IS THE EMPTY SCREEN Clear the last thing and you've earned it — a calm, quiet moment that's the heart of the app. Nothing on top. That's the whole point. DESIGNED TO DISAPPEAR • Pure, typography-forward design that follows light and dark • A crisp pop when you resolve something — and a warmer one for the last • Undo a pop whenever you need to • Push and resolve from widgets, the Lock Screen, Control Center, Siri, the Share sheet, your Apple Watch, and the Mac menu bar • Syncs across all your devices with iCloud TOPMOST PLUS (optional) • Contexts — separate stacks for Work, Home, anything; only one active at a time, so switching stays deliberate • Themes and your own reward colour for the empty screen • Look back — a quiet, read-only record of what you've cleared One purchase covers all your Apple devices, forever. Family Sharing included. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. No tracking. No analytics. Your stack lives in your private iCloud and nowhere else. Data Not Collected — and we mean it. One thing at a time.

Queue Focus brings task planning and a focus timer into one simple flow: plan today, choose one task, focus, finish, and move forward. Instead of switching between a to-do app and a timer, build a clear Today queue and act on it. When a task is done, tap Done, Next and keep your momentum. Lists are more than categories—they can represent the context you want to focus on. Create a Grocery list for milk, bread, and eggs. Create a Travel list for clothes, a charger, a wallet, and your passport. Switch lists to bring your attention back to what you are doing now. PLAN TODAY • Build and reorder a focused Today queue; batch-select to move or delete • Start a focus session from a task; set any focus and break duration • Pause, take a break, finish, and move to what’s next • See upcoming dues on Today; undo a completed task shortly after • Get local notifications when focus or break time ends FOCUS ON THE CURRENT CONTEXT • Create colored lists for shopping, travel, work, or daily routines • Filter by list and see only what matters now • Add planned dates, deadlines, and Important flags • Browse the month in Calendar, jump to a day, and batch-reschedule BUILD YOUR FOCUS RHYTHM • A clean Pomodoro-style focus timer • Focus stats for week / month / year and about seven days of Focus History from Today • Control focus from Lock Screen and Dynamic Island Live Activities • Free Home Screen widgets for Today and interactive Focus • No extra account—tasks and sessions stay on your device; with Pro, sync across devices with Apple iCloud QUEUE FOCUS PRO • Unlimited custom lists • Unlimited recurring tasks • Unlimited focus goals on tasks • iCloud sync • Longer focus history • Edit and add focus history Core task management (including batch), Today focus at any duration, up to 3 custom lists, up to 3 recurring tasks, up to 3 tasks with focus goals, Home Screen widgets, Focus Stats (week / month / year), about seven days of Focus History, Calendar month view, and upcoming dues remain free.
