Private beta · iPhone & iPad

Built for people who start
everything and finish nothing.

A task outliner with automatic progress tracking — designed for ADHD minds that need to see the shape of their work, not just a longer list.

FinishTrax Outline screen showing a folder lens reading All tasks, 103 tasks, above three project cards: Return the package at 40 percent with a quoted deadline and a link, Book dentist appointment at 25 percent with a two-column table of free slots, and Make the kitchen usable again below it. Each card carries its own note and progress bar.

Most to-do apps give you a flat list.
A flat list can grow into another pile
to feel guilty about.

When everything is at the same level of importance, nothing feels manageable. You open the app, see 47 items, and close it again.

FinishTrax gives your work a shape. Projects nest into subtasks. Progress rolls up automatically. You can zoom into one branch and ignore everything else while you work.

If a flat list already works for you, keep it — you don't need this. FinishTrax is for the rest of us: the ones with four abandoned to-do apps and a graveyard of almost-finished projects.

Outline

Your work has depth.
Your task list should too.

Unlimited nesting, automatic progress rollup from child tasks, folders, and full-text search. Organize into the shape your project actually has — FinishTrax adapts to it, not the other way around.

Unlimited nested hierarchy — projects, tasks, subtasks at any depth
Progress rolls up automatically from children
Reorder a branch or move a task under a new parent
Due dates, folders, full-text search

FinishTrax Outline with the Make the kitchen usable again branch expanded. The parent sits at 25 percent with a note reading Stop when the room works again. It does not need to sparkle. Its four subtasks hang beneath it on a connecting line: Start the dishwasher finished at 100 percent, then Clear one kitchen counter, Take rubbish outside, and Stop when the room works again.

Focus

One branch.
Everything else disappears.

Step into a single task branch and work without seeing the rest of your list. Breadcrumbs keep you oriented. The Next Focus queue lets you move deliberately when you're ready — no jumping, no getting pulled off track.

Zoom into one branch — everything else hides
Breadcrumb nav keeps you oriented at any depth
Next Focus queue: move through tasks deliberately
Recent focus remembers where you just were

Interruptions

Something urgent lands.
You don't lose your place.

You finally got into the hard thing, and now the bank needs calling back before four. The task itself takes two minutes. Finding your way back into the hard thing takes the rest of the afternoon.

Capture the interruption in one line without touching the branches you already trust — it lands in its own Temporary tasks folder, not in the middle of your projects. Deal with it, then tap your previous task in Recent focus. The note is still open at the line you left.

One-line capture — no form, no folder to choose
Interruptions stay in their own Temporary tasks folder
Recent focus keeps your previous task one tap away
Come back to the same note, not a blank page

FinishTrax asking Switch to this quick task? with the explanation Your current task moves to Recent focus, and two buttons: Keep current and Switch focus. Behind the dialog, the Monthly report branch is still open.

Notes

The task remembers.
So you don't have to.

If you've ever reopened your own task and had no idea what you meant — you're not careless. The context was never in the task. It was in your head, three weeks ago, and you start the thinking over from zero. Every task here carries its own Markdown note: the link, the screenshot, the half-written paragraph. Open the task and the thinking is already there.

Headings, checklists, tables, code blocks, quotes, and links
Images straight from your camera or photo library, kept on device
Rich formatting toolbar — or drop into the raw Markdown source anytime
Apple Writing Tools built in, for when the first sentence won't come

It lives inside the task — not in a second app you have to keep in sync.

Two FinishTrax task cards with their Markdown notes rendered inline. Renew passport carries a heading reading Documents to collect above a checklist — Old passport ticked off, Birth certificate and Two photos still open, with 35mm struck through and corrected to 45mm. Prepare for therapy check-in below it has a bullet list and a quoted line reading You are allowed to read straight from your phone.

Timeblock

Give the next step
somewhere to live.

A task with no time attached is a task you will read again tomorrow and still not start. Drop a block on the calendar and the decision is already made — you don't have to re-choose every morning.

Day view for one honest 24-hour picture
Week view when you want the whole shape
Blocks link back to the task they came from
Week notes for the plan behind the plan

FinishTrax Timeblock day view for Wednesday 29 July. A full 24-hour grid holds four blocks — Return package: save QR code and Monthly report: numbers only in the late morning, Lunch away from the screen at midday, and Usual window at 21:00 — with hours from 00 to 00 down the left edge.

Heatmap

Proof that you
do finish things.

A month view of every task you've completed. No scores, no streaks, no grades. Just your honest history — because one of the hardest parts of ADHD is not believing you're making progress even when you are.

Month grid: darker days = more tasks finished
Hourly view: see what times you tend to work
Patterns appear only once enough history backs them up
No gamification — honest data only

FinishTrax Heatmap. A card headed Night owl reads: You finish most things between 21:00 and 23:00, above a grid of hourly bands by weekday and a line listing Mon, Tue, Wed and Thu at 21:00 to 23:00. A footnote reads 45 active days over 10 weeks. Below, This month shows 41 finished on a calendar of warm orange squares.

Rhythm

You already have a rhythm.
One tap protects it.

Most planners ask you to invent a schedule and then feel bad about missing it. FinishTrax works the other way round. Once enough of your finishing times repeat, it names what it sees — and always shows the literal hours next to the name, so it stays an observation rather than a verdict about you.

If the pattern looks right, turn it into weekly blocks in one tap. You are not committing to a new habit. You are protecting the hours that already work.

Named from your own finishing times, never from a quiz
The evidence hours travel with the label, always
One tap turns a repeated window into weekly blocks
Decline it and nothing changes — the offer is not a nag

The FinishTrax Heatmap rhythm card after accepting the offer. Under the Night owl heading and the recurring windows for Mon, Tue, Wed and Thu at 21:00 to 23:00, a green tick confirms 4 weekly blocks added, with a View Timeblock link beside it.

The small things
that decide whether you keep using it.

Every one of these exists because the version without it got abandoned. None of them ask you to check in, keep a streak, or explain yourself.

The FinishTrax note editor with its formatting toolbar expanded above the keyboard: bold, italic, underline, strikethrough, code, heading and quote on one row; bullet list, numbered list, checklist, link, image, date and table on the next. — A real formatting toolbar

Fourteen commands, plus undo and raw Markdown.

The FinishTrax timer sheet headed Start a focus timer. Options read Stopwatch — counts up until you stop, no pressure, just presence; 20 minutes — short enough to start when starting is hard; 25 minutes — the classic Pomodoro; and Custom minutes. — Start small, on purpose

Stopwatch, 20, 25, or any length you choose.

A FinishTrax task row swiped open to reveal six coloured actions side by side: Edit, Timer, Focus, Add, Move and Trash. — Six actions, one swipe

Edit, Timer, Focus, Add, Move, Trash.

The FinishTrax Next focus queue with a quick task called Call the bank back before 4 currently in focus. Under the Recent focus heading, Monthly report sits at the top of the list, ready to return to in one tap. — Right back where you were

Recent focus keeps your last task one tap away.

FinishTrax Timeblock week view for 27 July to 2 August, with today highlighted and short blocks spread across Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday. — The whole week, honestly

Including the evenings you actually use.

The FinishTrax Trash screen showing one removed task, Put headphones in the work bag, with a restore control beside it and an Empty button in the header. — Deleting is reversible

Trash holds it until you are sure.

Themes

Six themes.
Pick the one your eyes
can sit with today.

Light and dark, each in three contrast levels. Contrast is a separate choice from light and dark, so you can turn the glare down without flattening the whole screen.

All six are built on the Everforest palette, and every one is checked for text contrast before it ships. If you still want to change something, Advanced Theme Settings lets you remap the individual colour roles — surfaces, text, actions, borders — for dark and light separately.
