FrictionList
Track the tiny blockers
Free · Designed for iPad
Bag packed? Gear ready? Water filled? Track the tiny blockers that keep you from showing up. Clear them all and get the green light.
You know what you want to do. The hard part is being ready to do it.
FrictionList is a daily preparation app that helps you identify and clear the small blockers that derail
your routine — so you can stop skipping the things that matter.
— HOW IT WORKS —
Most people don't fail at their goals because they lack motivation. They fail because their gym bag isn't
packed, their water bottle is empty, or they forgot to charge their phone. These tiny friction points
quietly kill your plans before you even start.
FrictionList flips the script on traditional to-do apps. Instead of tracking what you need to do, you
track what's stopping you from doing it.
1. Name your activity — gym, training, work, music practice, anything
2. List the blockers that usually stop you — gear not packed, clothes not ready, documents missing
3. Clear each blocker as you prepare throughout the day
4. See "Ready" when nothing stands in your way
Every morning, your list resets fresh. A clean slate, a new chance to remove the friction.

— PHILOSOPHY —
Showing up is the hardest part. FrictionList makes sure that when it's time to go, nothing is standing in
your way. No gamification, no streaks, no guilt — just a clear answer to one simple question: am I
ready?
Remove the friction. Show up prepared.
