PathDay: Personal Productivity
Tasks, Habits, Focus & Mantras
Free
Now ready for iPhone Duo: your list on one side of the fold, your task on the other. Plus, link tasks right from your Journal entries. Still free, synced across devices.
Why PathDay?
Most productivity apps only handle one part of your day. One app has a long list of tasks. Another tracks your habits. Then you need a timer to stay focused and a journal to write down your thoughts. Before you know it, you have a bunch of apps just to keep your day on track.
PathDay brings it all together in one productivity system, built around what matters most: today.
A path is walked one day at a time. PathDay helps you focus on what needs to get done today while keeping everything else organized for later.
Tasks show what needs to get done. The Journal records your days. The Inbox holds thoughts and ideas for later. Habits help you stay consistent. Focus helps you stay on task. Mantras help you start the day with intention.
TODAY - FOCUS ON WHAT MATTERS TODAY
Today brings your scheduled tasks, habits, ongoing work, unfinished items, and daily mantra into one view. See what needs your attention without sorting through long lists. Future tasks stay out of the way until you need them.
TASKS - EVERYTHING IN ONE PLACE
Keep all your tasks organized, and see only what is due today.
- Add tasks and subtasks, with categories and #hashtags
- Set due dates, reminders, and repeating tasks
- Attach files and voice notes, and search everything
JOURNAL - REMEMBER YOUR DAYS
Write about what happened, how you felt, and what you want to remember.
- Write with rich text, lists, checklists, photos, or voice transcription
- Create your own check-in questions with face ratings or a 1 to 10 scale, on the days you choose
- Keep daily, morning and evening, or Dream Journal entries, with calendar and search
INBOX - CAPTURE NOW, DECIDE LATER
Have something on your mind? Put it in the Inbox and get back to what you were doing.
- Capture tasks, ideas, and reminders without organizing them first
- Use Process Inbox to schedule, snooze, or complete items, or move them to Someday
HABITS - THE THINGS YOU REPEAT
Track workouts, vitamins, reading, steps, and other habits you want to build or maintain.
- Set schedules that fit your routines
- On iPhone and iPad, connect a habit to Apple Health to read steps, sleep, or workouts, or save water and mindful minutes

FOCUS - ONE THING AT A TIME
Start a focus session from any task, with a Pomodoro Focus Timer or an Open Timer.
- Set repeating focus and break sessions
- Keep your timer visible with Live Activities and Dynamic Island on iPhone or a floating timer on Mac

MANTRAS - START THE DAY WITH INTENTION
Start your day with a reminder of how you want to approach it.

NEW
iPhone Duo: open it and your list sits on one side of the fold with the task open on the other, on every screen. Closed, a compact editor and side buttons keep things quick. Your screen, open task and unsaved edits carry across a fold.
Link tasks from a Journal entry with Link Task. Search your tasks or create a new one right there.
A task now lists the Journal entries that mention it, under References.
IMPROVEMENTS
Deleting a habit you created hides it instead of erasing it. Past days still show it, and you can restore it with its history from Deleted Habits in the Library.
FIXES
On iPad, task notes start right under the formatting toolbar instead of partway down the notes box.
macOS What’s New
NEW
Link tasks from a Journal entry with Link Task. Search your tasks or create a new one right there.
A task now lists the Journal entries that mention it, under References.
IMPROVEMENTS
Today returns to the current day when you come back to PathDay after 30 minutes away, and a window left on Today overnight moves to the new day. A day you picked yourself stays put.
Deleting a habit you created hides it instead of erasing it. Past days still show it, and you can restore it with its history from Deleted Habits in the Library.
