24 alternatives to Cappu.app
I built a small app for one problem: too many inputs, too little structure. Most todo tools assume every item is a task. In reality I need one inbox for mixed things: tasks, events, links, movie/book tips, random reminders. Cappu’s flow is: capture fast now, process later in a focused pass, then work from sorted views (workspace + timeline). It’s a mobile-first PWA (no App Store), and you can test all features for free. Paywall is only for account sync/server storage across devices. I’d love feedback from HN on the workflow itself: does “capture first, classify later” make sense,…

nudge2.0▲107Hey HN! Nudge captures your screen every minute and uses GPT-4o to detect when you're distracted. Describe what you want to work on ("Review PRs on GitHub for 20min") and Nudge will alert when it sees you doing something else. I built Nudge because I get easily distracted at work. I've been using it for a few weeks and I'd say my procrastination is down 20-30%. (That's partly because Nudge forces me to break my day into small, concrete activities.) The AI detection can work perfectly but it depends on how clearly you describe your goal. For example, "I want to reply to my boss" is bad, but…

I've always been frustrated with the complexity of todo mobile apps. I use Todoist and Notion to manage my work, for instance, but every time I'm out and about and think of a task I need to capture, the mobile apps feel too complex. Or I might think of a feature to add to a product, but don't want to deal with Linear's mobile web view. So, I built Defer: a simple iOS "capture" app that syncs to your menu bar on your Mac. No signup needed, it all "just works" with your Apple ID. Intentionally simple and lightweight.

FlowTracks▲17Hi HN, I made FlowTracks – a time tracker that shows how consistent you really are. I’ve tried a bunch of productivity tools: Pomodoro timers, TODO apps, time logs. They helped me focus or stay organized short-term — but none of them gave me a clear picture of how consistent I was over time. I wanted to know: - Which days I drift off - Whether I was improving week over week - When exactly my focus dropped during the day So I built FlowTracks. Originally it was just a tool for myself. But after using it daily for a few months, I realized it might help others too — so I put up a landing page…
