inkhour vs Tickbase

Don’t put the phone down. Pick up something better. Remember when you could disappear into a book for hours? That person is still in you. The scroll just gets there first. Willpower asks you to win the same argument all day. inkhour lets you make the decision once. Choose when you want to read. When the ink falls, the distracting apps you selected go dark, and your phone has only one useful thing left to say: Go read. No guilt. No grey warning to swipe past. No promise to be better tomorrow. Just a quiet stretch of time where the easier choice is finally the one you wanted to make. Each day you return leaves a mark. Your streak grows. The page fills with ink. Your shelf becomes a record of what you read and the time you took back from the feed. At first, it is one protected sitting. Then you notice the pages adding up. Then the books. Then the time that used to disappear into a feed has begun turning into something you can hold. That is the whole idea. Scroll less. Read more. Let the books add up. HOW INKHOUR PROTECTS THE RITUAL • Schedule up to three protected reading times each day • Choose 30 minutes, one hour, or up to three hours • Read on waking, before bed, or at your own time • Use recent Apple Health sleep data to suggest times, only if you choose • Block distracting apps while keeping up to two essentials available • Record your reading time, streak, milestones, and books No account. No advertising. No developer tracking. Your schedule and reading history stay on your device. The feed will still be there later. Your unread books have already waited long enough. inkhour. Give the hour to something better. Terms of Use: https://inkhour.xyz/terms Privacy Policy: https://inkhour.xyz/privacy

Tickbase is the to-do list with everything you need to get things done, and none of the noise. Type a task the way you’d say it, “Call mum tomorrow at 5pm”, and the date, time and list are set for you. No feeds, no clutter, and no AI of its own. WORKS WITH SIRI Add a task, tick one off, or ask what’s due today, without opening the app. With Apple Intelligence, ask in your own words: “the passport one, tick it off”. Two switches decide whether Siri may change your tasks and see them, and locked lists always stay out of it. PLAN YOUR YEAR Turn a resolution into steps: read 24 books, run 500 km. Tickbase puts a milestone in your list each week, tells you whether you’re ahead or behind, and offers a new plan when one slips. Keep a bucket list beside it, with steps, shared with the people you’ll do it with. PLAN WORK THAT TAKES MORE THAN ONE SITTING Give a big task several work sessions across your week. Each one sits on your calendar, reminds you before it starts, and records the time you spent. COUNT DOWN TO WHAT MATTERS Birthdays, holidays and anniversaries, with the days to go and your own photo behind any of them. REMINDERS THAT RING • On time, even when Tickbase is closed • Set a reminder on your laptop and it rings on your phone • Done and Snooze right on the notification • Keep reminding until you act, as often as every 30 seconds • Ring as an alarm for the ones you can’t miss, through silent mode and Focus • Reminders before your calendar’s events, with a lead time for each calendar MADE FOR IPHONE DUO AND IPAD Open your iPhone Duo and your list sits beside the task you’re working on.
