No overdue tasks
Missed a date? It happens. todrift lets that thought grow a little bigger and leaves it there. No red, no count, no score.
Most to-do apps treat a missed date as a failure. The task turns red, joins an Overdue section, and adds one to a number that only goes up.
After a rough week that pile is all you see. Some apps take points off or reset a streak too. The usual way out is to stop opening the app.
So todrift doesn’t keep that pile.
In todrift, how soon something is due sets its size. Today is big. Tomorrow is a little smaller. A date that’s passed is the biggest of all, so it’s still the first thing you see.
Your attention goes where it’s needed, without a label telling you that you failed.
So urgency shows, and guilt doesn’t.
Plenty of tasks don’t need a date. Making one up just to fill the field is how overdue lists start.
Choose Whenever and the thought floats freely, small and calm, until you decide it matters.
So nothing goes late that never had to be on time.
Many popular apps work the other way. Todoist, for example, keeps overdue tasks in their own section, and its Karma points go down for tasks left overdue for several days. That suits some people. If it makes you avoid your list, a list that doesn’t keep score is worth a try. See how todrift compares with Todoist.
A thought past its date is the biggest blob on your screen, so it’s hard to miss. The iPhone and Android apps can also send one optional reminder a day when something is due.
Yes: Today, Tomorrow or any day from the calendar. Dates decide how big a thought is, not whether you’ve passed or failed.
Tap Pop it and it bursts. It moves to Popped, where you can bring it back, and fades away on its own after 90 days (you can change that in Settings).
Yes. Adding, sorting, syncing and the full list are all free. todrift Pro adds separate boards (work, home, that side project) and more themes, and you can try it free for a month.
