Hello! I built a widget app that’s designed to be nothing but motivational. I wanted to create productivity, instead of relying on check-ins or logs that only keep track of productivity.

The idea is simple: A super clean widget that counts down the time remaining in the day, week, month, or year. It sits on your lock screen or Home Screen and instead of “oh there’s only 7 hours left” it serves as a “wow look at those seconds ticking, time is a valuable resource and I should use mine better”. It’s the most subtle reminder to take full advantage of the 24 hours we get every day. It’s there when you need it and easy to ignore when you don’t.

So I’m curious: would you find this type of thing actually motivating? Ive heard a lot of “this would just stress me out” but that hasn’t been my experience with it at all, and I’m curious if that comes down to personality types. I’m also adding a “count up” feature that moves the clock the other way in hopes of combatting the stress.

I tour with bands for a living and my time at home started to blend together in a really unhealthy way. This was my solution that started as something I wanted personally, and it’s grown to this. I’ve found it’s a cool way to look at my day that actually motivates me to spend my time better. Am I alone in that? How much of an impact does personality types have?

Anyways we’re set to launch in the next few days. If you’re interested, feel free to hop on this email list to get notified:

Version 2.0 (early next week) will include the count up option, as well as a bunch more style choices for the Home Screen widget.

Thanks for looking :)

We’re gearing up for launch in the next couple of days and would love to gauge interest/hear feedback.

There is a pro upgrade in which you can countdown the week, month, and year as well. One time purchase, I know we’re all so burnt out of subscriptions. You can customize the font and weight of the text to fit your aesthetic. Pro version also gives you access to the daily lines. Generate a list of saying that might motivate you, and it’ll randomly choose a different to display every day. Short slogans written on your most productive days that might help pull you out of a not so productive one.

Update 2.0 is in the works with a retro style widget option and more customizable aesthetics.

As a freelancer myself, it sometimes feels like my day floats by. I’ve really enjoyed having the test version installed the past few days. It’s so non invasive but a nice reminder that’s there when I need it.
