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, 8 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 subtasks hang beneath it on a connecting line: Clear one kitchen counter, Take rubbish outside, and Stop when the room works again, each due Jul 28.

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.

Timer

The clock runs
with your subtasks in it.

Most focus timers live in a different app. You start twenty-five minutes, then go back to your list to work out what you were doing — and the first three are already gone.

Start a timer on a task here and the task comes with it. Its subtasks sit under the clock where you can tick them off, and the progress bar above them moves while the time is still running. Stop early and the focus time is still saved against that task.

Stopwatch, 20, 25, or any length you choose
The task's own subtasks sit under the clock — tick them without leaving
Progress rolls up live while the timer runs
Pause, resume, or stop — your focus time is saved either way

It ends with a sound only if you asked for one. That is the only alert FinishTrax will ever send you — and you started it yourself.

The FinishTrax focus session screen for the task Monthly report. Under a Focus Session label the task's progress bar reads 20 percent, above a large countdown with roughly 24 minutes left and the word Countdown. Pause and Stop buttons sit below, and under a Subtasks heading five rows follow: Open the document ticked off and struck through, then Copy last month's structure, Fill in the numbers only, Write the rough summary, and Send before 3 PM.

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 and the Next focus panel are both still open. — Tap it back from Recent focus when you're done.

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 opens Bring this list. You do not need to remember it in the room, above a bullet list starting Sleep has been broken since the trip.

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 Tuesday 28 July. A full 24-hour grid holds Return package: save QR code and Monthly report: numbers only stacked in the late morning, with Lunch away from the screen just after midday — hours run from 00 to 00 down the left edge and the rest of the day is left empty.

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 01:00, above a grid of hourly bands by weekday where the 20-24 row runs darkest, and a line reading Mon 21:00-23:00 · Tue 22:00-00:00. A footnote reads 45 active days over 10 weeks, May 25 to Jul 27, 2026. Below, This month shows 42 finished on a calendar of warm orange squares with gaps on the quiet days.

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 Mon 21:00-23:00 · Tue 22:00-00:00, a tick confirms 2 weekly blocks added, with a View Timeblock link beneath 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 the on-screen keyboard up and the formatting toolbar expanded above it: keyboard, raw Markdown, format, undo and redo on the accessory row; bold, italic, underline, strikethrough, code, heading and quote on the next; bullet list, numbered list, checklist, link, image, date and table on the last. — A real formatting toolbar

Fourteen commands, plus undo and raw Markdown.

The FinishTrax timer sheet headed Start a focus timer with Monthly report named beneath it. 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, any length 1 to 999. A Sound when finished switch sits at the bottom. — 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 panel expanded while a quick task called Call the bank back before 4 is in focus. Under the Recent focus heading, Monthly report from the Work folder sits at the top of the list with Return the package beneath it, 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 short blocks spread across Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, and a Show week notes button beneath the grid. — 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.
