Wick
Every deadline drawn as a wick that is already burning
What it does
A list tells you what is due. It never tells you how much time is left, and that is the part you actually feel. Wick draws every deadline as a wick already burning. The whole line is the time you were given, the flame is now, and the dark stretch behind it is time you have spent. Six kinds, because a loan, a bill and a birthday do not count down the same way. One file on your Mac. No account, no subscription.
Wick turns every deadline into a burning wick on your Mac. Tasks, loans, subscriptions and renewals, all counting down where you can see them.
A list tells you what is due. It does not tell you how much time is left, and that is the part you actually feel. Wick draws every deadline as a wick that is already burning. The whole line is the time you were given, the flame is now, and the dark stretch behind it is time you have already spent. You do not read it so much as glance at it. Because not everything counts down the same way, Wick has six kinds of wick. Ordinary tasks burn to a deadline. Loans burn one candle a month and you blow one out with each payment. Subscriptions loop instead of expiring, so they roll on renewal rather than turning red, with the last day to cancel marked. Occasions count down to a date and let you save…from appsbymo.app

I made OwnTime to balance between competing priorities in my life. The idea is based on two main influences: the concept of "roles" from "The 5 Choices" (2015), and my repeated failure to effectively implement time blocking due to the necessary flexibility in my role. The app allows you to define time budgets, which are not much more than a few mutually exclusive countdown timers. The UX is essentially that of a chess clock for an arbitrary number of players with configurable time. The whole point of the app is to kick you out of the running role/priority when its time is up.
