About this app

🎯 Focus on what matters most

The Ivy Lee Method is a simple task management app built around the Ivy Lee Method: choose up to 6 important tasks, arrange them by priority, and work through them one at a time.

No endless task lists. No complicated systems. Just decide what matters most and start there.

✅ How it works

Choose up to 6 important tasks.
Arrange them in order of priority.
Start with the first task.
Focus on one task at a time.
Complete it, then move to the next.
Repeat each day.

📋 6 priorities. One task at a time.

You can:

• Add, edit, and delete tasks
• Drag and drop to change priority order
• Mark tasks as completed
• Reopen a task if you completed it by mistake
• Avoid accidentally creating duplicate active tasks

⏱️ Focus Timer

When you need a deeper block of focused work, use the built-in Focus Timer.

You can customize:

• Focus duration from 5 to 180 minutes
• Break duration from 1 to 60 minutes
• Completion sound

25 minutes is only the default. Choose the duration that works best for you.

📚 Review what you’ve completed

Completed Task History lets you look back at tasks you finished during the last 366 days.

You can review:

• A specific day
• A custom date range
• The completion date and time for each task

🎨 Minimal by design

A clean, modern, distraction-light interface helps you spend more attention on your work and less time managing the app.
