Availability vs Wakemark Tasks

Availability turns scheduling into a single message. Open any conversation in Messages, tap +, choose Availability, and send. The other person sees the times you’re actually free, picks one, and it’s booked — no links to copy, no accounts to create, no back-and-forth. SEND IN TWO TAPS Pick an activity — Coffee, Lunch, Drink, Meeting, or one you create — and send. Each preset remembers its own length, date window, and hours, so “grab a coffee” is one tap and done. ALWAYS ACCURATE Availability reads your calendars on your device and hides anything that’s busy. If your week fills up after you send, the times you offered update automatically. Nobody can book over a meeting. THEY DON’T NEED THE APP Recipients pick a time right inside the message bubble, or on a simple web page if they don’t use iMessage. No sign-up, no email address, no app download required. They confirm, tap Add to Calendar, and they’re done. IT LANDS ON YOUR CALENDAR Confirmed bookings go straight into the calendar you choose — iCloud, Google, or any calendar on your iPhone — and the time is instantly held so nobody else can take it. TUNE ANY SEND Change the meeting length, the date range, or the hours (mornings only, afternoons, evenings, or custom) for just this message without touching your defaults. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Event titles, notes, and attendees never leave your phone. Availability only uses busy/free time to calculate what to offer. SET UP ONCE Choose which calendars to check for conflicts, which calendar to add bookings to, your normal working hours, and your default meeting length. After that, everything happens in Messages. Availability is the missing scheduling button in Messages.
Wakemark Tasks

Most to-do apps treat every task the same until you manually sort them. Wakemark does the opposite: it shows you what actually threatens your deadline, and lets everything else fade into the background. Every task you add gets a slack number, literally, how many days of buffer it has before it starts putting your deadline at risk. No manual prioritizing, no drag-to-reorder guesswork. Tap "Why?" on any task and see the exact math behind it, not a black-box score. DESIGNED FOR DEADLINE-CRITICAL WORK Wakemark isn't a general habit tracker or a team project board. It's built for the specific shape of work where a real date is coming: client deliverables, launches, submissions, filings. See your project as a simple list or a lightweight board, switch anytime, both are just two views of the same underlying critical path. SWIPE TO DONE, AND FEEL IT Setting a task's status is a single, satisfying swipe, no menus, no taps through a picker. Finishing the last task standing between you and your deadline is the biggest moment in the app, and it's built to feel like one. BREAK WORK DOWN WITHOUT LOSING THE BIG PICTURE Every task can carry its own simple checklist. Group related tasks into sections within a project, or group whole projects together when you're juggling several for the same client. Nothing here changes how urgency is calculated, organization is just a lens on the same honest numbers underneath. SEE HOW YOU'RE ACTUALLY PACING A burndown chart shows your real progress against an ideal pace, no red flags, no guilt, just the honest shape of where you stand. Wakemark also learns, entirely on your device, how your own estimates tend to compare to reality over time, and uses that to make future suggestions sharper. ON-DEVICE AI THAT SHOWS ITS WORK Describe a project in plain language and get a suggested task breakdown. Type a messy note and have it turned into a structured task. Ask "why" a task is urgent and get a real explanation grounded in your actual numbers, not a guess. Every suggestion is yours to accept, edit, or ignore, nothing is ever applied without you. A WIDGET, NOT A NOTIFICATION Wakemark never pings you. Add a home screen widget to see what's most urgent when you glance at your phone, on your schedule, not the app's. BUILT DIFFERENTLY, ON PURPOSE Wakemark is part of My Honest Apps, a personal promise, not a corporate policy. No accounts. No ads. No analytics SDKs. No data collection of any kind. Everything lives on your device; if you want it synced across your own devices, that's an opt-in choice using your own private iCloud, never anything else. The only way Wakemark makes money is an entirely optional tip jar. Nothing is ever locked behind it. If that sounds like the kind of app you wish more of your apps were, you'll feel at home here.
