OnlyThis is a focus timer and to-do app for people that regular to-do lists don't help. Instead of a list, it shows you one thing and a timer.
Your brain is fine. It's the lists that are built against it.
OnlyThis shows one thing at a time. Nothing else. No list shouting from the screen, no badges, no scorecard for yesterday. Just what you chose, a quietly shrinking ring of time, and a big Start button.
CAN'T GET MOVING? THAT'S THE MOST IMPORTANT BUTTON HERE
Tap "I can't start" and OnlyThis picks a task for you and gives it two minutes. That's all. After two minutes you're allowed to stop - that's not failure, that's the deal. (You usually don't.)
BUILT AROUND HOW ATTENTION ACTUALLY WORKS
- One task on screen - the rest waits out of sight until you reach for it
- Time you can see: a ring instead of digits counting down to zero
- "Too big" - helps you find the smallest first move, the thirty-second one
- "Not today" - the task steps aside; it doesn't vanish and it doesn't come back resentful
- Brain dump - write down everything sitting in your head, line by line, then return to one thing
- Time calibration: "that took twelve minutes and felt like two hours"
- "Done today" - a list for the evenings when it feels like you did nothing
PRIVATE BY DESIGN, NOT BY POLICY
