About this app

Feeling overwhelmed by everything you've started but never finished? Lugn is a mental load tracker and brain dump app that helps you clear mental clutter, so you can focus on what matters and let go of the rest.
Your brain quietly tracks every unfinished book, half-watched series, abandoned course, and ongoing project. Each one is an open loop, draining mental energy whether you think about it or not. Lugn makes that invisible load visible. That's the first step to reducing it.

📋 GUIDED BRAIN DUMP
Walk through every area of your life: books, series, games, courses, projects, household, and trips. Add everything unfinished. Get everything out of your head and see your total mental load for the first time. Most people are surprised by the number.

🎯 SEE YOUR NUMBER
Your active count is always front and center, color-coded by zone:

Green (1–5): Focused
Yellow (6–9): Fragmented
Red (10+): Overloaded

For every unfinished thing, you have two choices: finish it, or let it go. Both close the loop. Both declutter your mind.

✨ PREMIUM (ONE-TIME PURCHASE, NO SUBSCRIPTION)
Insights: trends and patterns over 30 days, so you see your mental load shrinking
Focus Loop: pin one priority to your home screen widget
Loop Limit: cap your active loops. The app blocks new ones until you close one.

No ads. No account required. The free version is a complete app.

🧠 WHY IT WORKS
Lugn is grounded in cognitive science. The Zeigarnik Effect shows that unfinished tasks create mental tension and drain focus. Writing them down in a trusted system, then deliberately finishing or releasing them, reduces stress and restores mental clarity.
This is not a to-do list or habit tracker. It's a simpler, calmer alternative: a tracker for your mental load, not your errands.
Perfect for you if you're easily overwhelmed, juggling too many projects, prone to starting things you never finish, or just want more peace of mind and less mental clutter.
Lugn is Swedish for calm. That's the destination.
