Focus 5: To-Do List & Tasks Live

Five tasks a day. One at a time. Done. Most to do list apps let you add a hundred tasks, then leave you feeling bad about ninety five of them. A task manager that never says no is just a longer list. Focus5 is a daily planner built the other way round: you pick five tasks for today, and everything else waits until you are ready for it. KEY FEATURES • Five tasks a day. Today holds the five that matter. Add as many as you like, the rest queue up behind them instead of shouting at you. • Focus mode. One task on the screen, a focus timer counting, and nothing else to look at. Finish it, and the next one slides in. • Brain dump by voice. Say what is on your mind and Focus5 turns it into tasks, sorted into the right list. Faster than typing, and nothing gets lost. • Books. Keep work, personal, health and side projects in separate lists, so your daily planner is not one endless pile. • Insights. See your finishing streak, how many tasks you closed this week, and where your focus time actually went. • Works offline. Your tasks are on your phone, not stuck behind a connection, and they sync to the web app when you are at a desk. WHY FOCUS5? It is for people who have tried the big to do list apps and bounced off them. If you have a task manager full of tasks you will never do, the problem is not that you need more features. It is that nothing is stopping you from overcommitting. The five task limit is the whole product. Everything else exists to protect it. Focus mode hides the list so you cannot browse it instead of working. The voice brain dump gets an idea out of your head in seconds, so capturing something does not turn into ten minutes of tidying. The moment it clicks is around four in the afternoon, when you look at your day and three of the five are ticked. Not forty open tasks. Three done, two to go. No subscription. Focus5 is free to use, and the paid unlock is a single one time payment, not a monthly bill you forget about. Pick five. Do them. Close the app.
