ActuallyDoIt vs MemoTempo

Some days the hardest part isn't doing the thing, it's deciding what to do, remembering it exists, and not drowning in everything else. ActuallyDoIt is a to-do app for exactly those days. Instead of a bottomless list, it shows you ONE thing to do right now and can persistently remind you to get stuff done. ONE THING AT A TIME • A single "Doing now" card keeps you on one task with a big Done button and a guilt-free "Can't do this now" escape. • A "Today" view that only shows what needs doing today. No more overwhelming list of everything. • "Suggested next" shows a short, curated preview of what's coming, never the whole backlog. • A day-progress ring shows what you've already knocked out today. NUDGES THAT ACTUALLY WORK • Choose how hard each task nudges you: Gentle (one morning reminder), Persistent (a few through the day), or Relentless (every hour, 9am–9pm, until it's done). • Reminders stop the moment you finish. No nagging about things you've already handled. • A friendly morning digest tells you what's on your plate for the day. CAN'T DECIDE? LET THE APP CHOOSE • Tap "Pick for me" and ActuallyDoIt suggests one task to start that fits in the time you have, beating the decision paralysis when everything feels equally impossible. CHORES & ROUTINES • Set recurring chores (daily, weekly, monthly, or every few days) that quietly come back when they're due. • Going away? Pause a chore so it stops nagging until you're back. ADD IT ONCE • Every task lives in one place. Lists and goals don't hold their own copies. They gather tasks you already have. • The same task can sit in a list and a goal at the same time. Tick it off anywhere and it's done everywhere. • Gather tasks into a goal with one deadline and watch its progress fill up (Plus), or share a list with your household (Plus). ORGANIZED, LIGHTLY • Tag tasks (Home, Work, Admin…) and filter down to just what matters. • Add a time estimate, so you can pick something that fits the time you actually have. • A Lock Screen Live Activity and Home Screen widget keep your current task in view. • Location based tasks for when you need a reminder at a place. • Checklists for when your tasks have tasks. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • No account, no sign-up, no ads, no tracking. • Your tasks sync across your devices through your own iCloud. • Free to use, with an optional tip if it helps you. ACTUALLYDOIT PLUS • Most of ActuallyDoIt is free. Plus adds quick add in plain language, a daily brain dump that suggests tasks, goals, shared lists, and Siri & Shortcuts. • Subscribe monthly or yearly (the yearly plan starts with a 1-month free trial), or pay once for lifetime access. • Subscriptions renew automatically until you cancel. Family Sharing is supported. Built for anyone whose brain gets overwhelmed easily, but genuinely useful for anyone who wants to stop managing a list and start finishing things.

MemoTempo is a quiet place for the small things you did and the things you intend to do. Write a simple sentence such as “Had my haircut yesterday” or “Call Grandma tomorrow.” The app interprets whether it belongs in your past or your plans, then lets you review the date and add an optional reminder. See what is coming next and how long it has been since something happened. Mark plans as complete, search your memories, attach photos to each occasion, and export a backup whenever you want. Ask when something last happened or how often you recorded it, open the memories behind the answer, and keep three highlights in your free monthly review. MemoTempo is local-first and requires no MemoTempo account, ads, or remote analytics. Optional iCloud Drive recovery copies use your own Apple account and can be turned off at any time. MemoTempo Plus is an optional one-time purchase that unlocks protection for individual memories, automatic iCloud recovery copies, personal rhythm insights, your annual recap, and the advanced rhythm widget. Core remembering remains free.
