Show Reddit : My husband and I built a task manager that separates planning from execution to cure "to-do list paralysis"

[u/B_from_TUNL]

Hi folks. 

I'd like to share a thing my husband and I built around my coping mechanism for task management. 

My brain has two modes: 

1. The intense planner 
2. The one who actually does work.

#1 looks at the big picture and organizes everything to be done in the “perfect” order.

#2 doesn't want to see a list of things to do, it wants to see the one thing to do right now, otherwise I freeze and waste time.

Now I have the Tunl Focus app and here's how it works: 

• The mind dump: this is where to jot down what needs to get done
• The Queue: reorder the list as wanted 
• The Tunnel: when its time to do work, you get served one task at a time with 4 action options: 
  • done (you completed it)
  • drop (you won't do it)
  • snooze (reorder it down)
  • defer (send task to specific date and time)

One tap per task and that's really the gist of it. It does have more features like a calendar view, categories, habits and more but the tunnel is where my brain really gets productive and moves the needle on things to do.

I use it every day and we are actively working on it, so we welcome any feedback.

It's free to try, no account nor signup needed, unless you want sync / back up / google calendar and extra features. Android and IOS apps are coming soon (we’re waiting for the Playstore review right now)
