Yosanity is a family of routine checklist apps I’m making for myself.
Unlock the Power of a Checklist
Checklists are a great way to improve productivity and reduce stress. There are a lot of personal stories of life-changing routines and habits on the internet, and there are multiple studies on the subject matter.
I am making these apps from my own experience: I get more done and feel better about myself when I’m following a planned routine. The sleep inertia doesn’t bother me as much and less time is wasted procrastinating.
Checklists are not a silver bullet, but pushing bicycle pedals takes less energy than running.
Features Yet to Come
The apps get updates every couple of weeks nowadays. Plans for the future include:
- In progress routine notifications.
- History visualisation and analytics.
- Apple Watch® integration.
- Day of week routines.
- Task timers (e.g. exercise for 10 min).
- iPad® redesign.
FAQ
Why checklists?
Because we’re not perfect, but we are not afraid of it.
A checklist is…used to reduce failure by compensating for potential limits of human memory and attention. Wikipedia
Can’t it just be a single app?
Building habits is hard. One checklists per app is an optimization to make it easier.
- Focus.
Don’t get distracted by things outside of your current goals in the app. - Reduce friction.
Get right into your activity in one tap (opening the app) instead of stumbling on habit/project/goal lists. - Anchor routines.
Use an app icon as a psychological anchor for a habit, helping you to stick to a routine.
Will there be an Android app?
I’m not planning on it at the moment.
Become an Early Adopter
The apps are less than a year old!
Since the apps are far from reaching their full potential, they are selling for just $2.99.
I’m working hard on improving these apps every day. You’re sure to get numerous updates and fixes in the near future.
And since the apps will be delivering more value, the listing prices will go up at some point.
The purchase is for the lifetime. I’ll never require subscriptions or sell your data to advertisers.
