Built around the way you think
Does your to-do list feel overwhelming? This app asks you a series of either/or questions, then shows you your top priority task.
You make the choices
Tackle complexity a bit at a time.
Our brains struggle to rank long lists, or to reliably assign absolute priorities. Task Compass uses Pairwise Prioritization instead.
Focus on the top task
The rest of the iceberg is always there, should you need to dive in.
When your #1 is identified, other tasks become a distraction, so Task Compass shows you the top #1 full-screen.
When #1 is done, the next one bubbles up to the top.
Your tasks are already here
Task Compass is a layer, not a silo.
You don’t need to enter your tasks all over again. They are already there: in your Apple Reminders (iOS) or Google Tasks (Android).
- No new accounts to create.
- No data migration.
- Your data stays in your Apple (iCloud) or Google account.
Cross-list Prioritization
Enable two or more lists, and you'll find that you can prioritize them naturally.
You don’t need to work with one list at a time.
Human minds can prioritize across contexts. You can enable your Home list together with your hobby projects or work lists, and you’ll naturally discover which area you should focus on first.
Workspaces
Continuously draw from an always-prioritized task list.
Draw tasks from a set of lists you select. Each one can be a context — home, in town, a project — and you can have as many as you have projects.
Completed tasks are continuously replaced with new ones from the pool, following your prioritization choices.
Today Tab
Build a daily plan, then execute it without distraction.
Based on Oliver Burkeman’s 4000 Weeks.
A Plan-Execute pendulum. Schedule tasks for today, then switch to Execution mode and focus on your plan until it’s finished.
Tomorrow Tab
Schedule tasks for tomorrow before you close out today.
Queue tasks for tomorrow while your priorities are still fresh. When tomorrow arrives, your plan is ready and you can go straight into execution.
