iPhone
Stuck in your head? Open Driftless, tap once, get one tiny action you can actually do right now. No accounts. No cloud. No pressure — just momentum on tap.
Your todo list has 23 things on it. You can't start any of them.
Open Driftless. Tap once. Get one tiny action - picked for you. Do it. That's the whole app.
No accounts. No cloud. No 47-step morning routine. No streak shaming. Just a tiny nudge that breaks the freeze.
HOW IT WORKS
→ Pick a mode (Reset, Work, Chaos, or your own)
→ Tap "Give me momentum"
→ Get one tiny action
→ Done. Pick another, or close the app.
BUILT FOR ANYONE WHO HAS EVER
• Sat in front of a laptop for 40 minutes without opening anything
• Felt their brain shut down at the size of the task
• Defended a 200-day streak past the point of usefulness
• Said "just five more minutes" and stayed for an hour
• Wanted to do the thing but couldn't start the thing
Driftless is for ADHD brains, anxious overthinkers, burned-out workers, and anyone who has ever stared at a todo list and chosen the couch.
WHAT'S INSIDE
• Four starter modes - Reset (wind down), Work (focus), Chaos (move your body), Custom (yours)
• 35+ tiny actions ready to roll
• Add your own actions. Build your own modes.
• A Home Screen widget - your next step, no unlock needed
• Momentum stats: streak, weekly chart, 4-week heatmap
• Light and dark mode, haptics, one-handed by design
• 100% local. No account. No tracking. No sync.
WHY IT'S DIFFERENT
Most productivity apps want you to set up. Plan. Configure. Categorize. Driftless wants you to open, tap, and do. You're not building a system - you're just getting moving.
You don't need another todo list. You need one tap that gets you off the couch.
