Need to pass one asap! Which one is easiest and how long should I allocate to studying?

My todo list today (wish me luck on my exam)

To preface: I have ADHD, so staying on top of my life is a genuine struggle (and I'm not medicated). I've had a to-do list subscription for about three years now, but it still wasn't enough, there was always so much overhead in manually copying every homework assignment from different portals into my lists. So I made Tib.

Tib lives in your Mac's menu bar and keeps every to-do and assignment one click away. It also connects to Canvas (the assignment portal most universities use) and automatically pulls in all your assignments and due dates, so you're not the one doing the copying anymore.

It's also got tags, reminders, repeating tasks, subtasks, and one-tap export to Apple Calendar — plus you control how far back "overdue" items show, so your list never turns into a wall of red that makes you want to close it and do nothing.

The name's short for tiburón (shark in Spanish).

Right now it's in free beta on TestFlight for macOS (14+). (iPhone and Windows aren't here yet, but they're on the list.)

I'd really appreciate an honest take — what you like, what you don't, and what you'd want added.

Use access code BETA2026 on the subscription page to get into Tib, and thank you so much in advance to everyone who gives it a shot.

I'm not sure if there's an exact term for this, but I've used to-do lists before, and one thing that's always bothered me about them is seeing overdue assignments highlighted in red. Usually, if I have a list of things to do for the day and I check my to-do list and suddenly see five overdue items, I kind of short-circuit and do nothing at all. I understand that there are things I genuinely have to do, so they rightfully get treated as such on a to-do list — but a lot of the time I get a little burst of ambition, start listing out everything, and set myself up to feel overwhelmed when I notice I haven't done any of it.

I'm making my own to-do list app, and I've been playing with the idea of making it have an ADHD oriented mode, which has led me to try and understand this phenomenon I've faced before.

I've thought this mode would play out as such;

• There'd probably be a Tag or something to label a certain item as an ADHD thought, or at least something to differentiate a real unmissable task vs a fleeting thought.
• If this ADHD thought became overdue, it would get hidden, until the end of the week (or maybe you pick a day to get reminded of it)
• If you had an ADHD thought due on the same day as other assignments, it'd be hidden until after you finished all the other things you HAD to finish

I think these small little fixes could satisfy you in moments where you do want to conquer the world the next day and cushion you on days where all you really need is just one small task to set you on the right path to getting things done.

My questions are: Is this phenomenon even related to ADHD? Does it have a name? Do y'all think this mode could be helpful? What would you change to make it better?

Hey everyone — I've been building a macOS app called Tib and just opened it up for beta testing!

What it does: Tib lives in your menu bar and keeps all your tasks, deadlines, and reminders one click away. Connect it to Canvas (if you're a student) and it auto-imports your assignments and due dates, so your whole semester is organized the moment you open it.

Why I need you: I'm looking for testers to find bugs and tell me what feels off before launch.

How to join:

1. Install Tib from the link
2. Use access code BETA2026 on the subscription page to unlock everything
3. Use it like normal and send me anything weird you find

Thanks so much — Any and all feedback helps!

Hey all, I made Tib, it lives in your Mac's menu bar and tracks your tasks and deadlines, and it can auto-import your Canvas assignments so you stop digging through class pages.

It's in free beta and I'd love feedback. macOS 14+:
