Most to-do apps are drawers. Doblin is a companion. You don't put things off because you have nothing to do โ€” you put them off because there's too much. So Doblin shows you one thing: the task that matters right now. Finish it, and the next one appears. ONE TASK AT A TIME Open the app and there's no wall of items to triage. Just what's next, chosen from due dates, priority and how long it's been waiting. Not ready for it? Skip to the next one. CAPTURE IN A SECOND Type "buy milk tomorrow 7pm" and Doblin sets the title and the due date for you โ€” in your own language. Add one after another without the keyboard ever dropping. A COMPANION THAT GROWS Every task you finish grows your Doblin, from a little sprout to something radiant. It never shrinks. Once you've reached a stage you can keep whichever one you like best. GENTLE, NEVER PUSHY Streaks that forgive a missed day. Confetti when the day is clear. No leaderboards, no guilt notifications, no punishment for falling behind. MADE FOR EVERY DAY - Due dates, times and reminders - Repeats: daily, weekdays, weekly, monthly - Priority, drag to reorder, swipe to complete or delete, undo - Home screen widget - Light and dark - Full VoiceOver and Dynamic Type support PRIVATE BY DEFAULT No account. No tracking. No ads. Your tasks stay on your device โ€” always. To fix crashes and see which features get used, Doblin sends anonymous diagnostics and usage statistics. Never what you typed. Switch it off anytime in Settings > Privacy. English, ํ•œ๊ตญ์–ด, ๆ—ฅๆœฌ่ชž, ็ฎ€ไฝ“ไธญๆ–‡, Espaรฑol.

About

Float

Read full description

Float is a to-do app with three spaces. Write everything that comes to mind into the Dump space at the bottom: groceries, ideas, someday tasks. Move what you're still deciding on up to the Think space in the middle, and what you'll focus on today to the Focus space at the top. Moving takes one drag: press, lift, and drop. When an item crosses a boundary, the edge ripples under your fingertip. โ€ข Three spaces โ€” Focus, Think, Dump. Nothing moves on its own. You always decide the order. โ€ข Drag to move โ€” press and hold to lift, then drop it exactly where you want. Move with a button and the boundary bounces gently as the item passes. โ€ข Several at once โ€” tap to select multiple items and move them together. โ€ข One-handed mode โ€” one button brings all three spaces down to your thumb. โ€ข Double-tap to complete โ€” a hand-drawn line strikes through and the item goes to the archive. Deleted by mistake? Undo right away. โ€ข Repeat reminders โ€” things you can't forget come back every 30 minutes, 1 hour, or 3 hours. Complete the item and the reminder stops. โ€ข Backup and restore โ€” export and import a file. Free for everyone. โ€ข Themes โ€” nine colors. The app icon can match your theme. Premium (one-time purchase) unlocks eight themes and expands dump pages from 3 to 7. Everything else is free. No account, no ads, no tracking. Your data stays on your device.
