Dawny

iOS · TestFlight Beta

A task app that deletes yesterday's tasks. On purpose.

No overdue. No carryover. No guilt.

The Problem

“Overdue tasks are a design flaw.”

A red priority flag on a task doesn't automatically make it your priority. You already know, quite clearly, what matters and what doesn't.

Most apps cast unfinished work as failure in red. Dawny reads it as information. A miss today is about timing, not about what matters to you.

Tomorrow isn't on autopilot: you decide whether it's worth today's focus, and nothing fills your list without your conscious decision.

The 3 AM Reset

While you sleep, your day resets.

At 3 AM, Dawny quietly clears your Daily Focus. Nothing is lost. Unfinished tasks return safely to the Backlog. You wake up to a clean slate.

How it works

Two lists. That's it.

Backlog — your library of maybes
Backlog

Everything that matters to you

No exact dates, no detailed priorities or planning.

Daily Focus — today, on purpose
Daily Focus

What actually matters today

You decide what's on your plate today.

Daily Focus — open and completed tasks
Back to Backlog

Not enough time in your day?

What's left goes back to the backlog.

Why it feels different

Other apps keep you chasing old plans. Dawny gives you a fresh focus for each day.

Most task apps
  • Unfinished = failure (in red)
  • Lists grow forever
  • Push priorities forward by default
  • Structure scales complexity
Dawny
  • Unfinished = information
  • Daily Focus resets every night
  • Re-decide what matters today
  • Constraint creates clarity

Who it's for

This will feel right if…

  • Your task list turned into a graveyard.
  • You reschedule more than you decide.
  • You want clarity, not control systems.
  • You think in days, not systems.

Dawny tends to work especially well for people who don't fit rigid productivity systems — including many neurodivergent thinkers.
