Goad plan: No-Excuses Tasks
Plan it. Do it. No snooze.
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Goad forces you to plan your day before it starts — and won't let you ignore what matters.
Goad is a task manager built around one rule: plan first, then act.
Every morning, Goad makes you choose what you're actually going to do today — not just add more to a list. Once a task is on your plan, it escalates until you finish it. No snooze. No "maybe later." No endless backlog scroll.
HOW IT WORKS
• Morning ritual — Start your day with a quick planning session. Goad surfaces your overdue tasks, today's deadlines, and lets you pick what to commit to.
• Escalating reminders — Tasks that miss their deadline come back louder. The longer you delay, the harder Goad pushes.
• Shutdown ritual — End your day by triaging unfinished tasks. Carry them forward, defer them, or cut them. Close the loop every day.
• Calendar integration — See your schedule alongside your tasks so your plan fits your day.
FEATURES
Items marked (Goad Pro) require a one-time in-app purchase. Everything else is free.
• Priorities — Must / Should / Nice-to-have — not everything is equally urgent.
• Subtasks — Break big tasks into steps.
• Tags — Colour-code by project or area.
• Widgets — Glanceable task count and next-up task on your Home Screen.
• Streak tracking — Build momentum on recurring habits.
• Recurring tasks (Goad Pro) — Daily, weekly, custom weekdays, biweekly, or monthly.
• Live Activity (Goad Pro) — See your active task on the Dynamic Island and Lock Screen.
• iCloud sync (Goad Pro) — Your tasks on every device, through your own private iCloud.
Your data stays private: no account to create, no ads, no third-party trackers, and no analytics at all — the app reports nothing back to us. iCloud sync runs through your own iCloud account — we never see your tasks.
FREE AND GOAD PRO
The free tier keeps up to 10 active tasks, with the full planning and shutdown rituals, escalating reminders, widgets, tags, subtasks and streaks.
Goad Pro is a single in-app purchase: you buy it once and keep it, with nothing recurring and nothing to renew. It unlocks six things — unlimited tasks, recurring tasks, custom notification ladders, Live Activity, iCloud sync, and your full Procrastination Index.
Goad works best for people who are serious about finishing what they start.

Goad plan 1.1.
A sharper look on every screen, and animations that now follow your Reduce Motion setting. Crash reporting added, so problems get fixed faster. You can now share Goad with a friend from Settings.
