your day, distilled.

a calm to-do app for iphone. a handful of action items, your daily habits, and nothing shouting at you. everything else waits quietly in its list.

HOW IT WORKS

one small board.
everything else can wait.

keep as many lists as you like — work, home, groceries, someday. then pin only what matters onto the board. the board is your day.

action items

pin items from any list onto one small board, or add them straight to it. tap an item's tag to jump back to its list.

daily habits

gym. stretch. read 20 pages. habits reset at midnight and keep a quiet score — habits kept, actions taken.

beat the clock

give any item a countdown with an alarm, or a free-running stopwatch. one timer at a time, on purpose.

repeat daily

mark an action item as daily and it checks off for today, then comes back fresh tomorrow — like brushing your teeth.

weekend mode

pause item aging and habit resets on saturdays and sundays. rest is part of the system, not a failure of it.

color you can read

a thin colored edge tells you what every row is at a glance — orange for items, cyan for habits, red for categories.

the three-midnight rule. most to-do apps let guilt pile up. zenlists doesn't. an action item that sits untouched for three midnights is quietly unpinned — back to its list, out of your face. never deleted, never marked done for you. daily items stay put.

PRIVACY

yours alone.

your lists live on your phone and nowhere else.
