Quiet focus directly on your home screen.

Quiet focus directly on your home screen.

Productivity widgets should give you context in under two seconds—not pressure you with crimson overdue badges or broken streak shaming.

Owldo introduces six native widgets across iOS, Android, and Desktop, built on a sub-50ms local-first SQLite engine.

Our Philosophy

“Your home screen should inspire focus, not anxiety.”

Mainstream task apps turn your phone into a carnival of panic: crimson overdue badges, broken-streak guilt trips, and cartoonish karma points. Owldo brings quiet craftsmanship back to your screen with six distraction-free, local-first widgets built for iOS, Android, and Desktop.

Interactive Checklists Without App Launches

On iOS 17+ and Android 12+, you can check off tasks directly from your home screen widget. No launching the full application. No waiting for cloud sync APIs.

Your completion status updates optimistically in milliseconds and persists silently to on-device SQLite storage.

Zen Focus Timer & Instant Scratchpad

A circular countdown progress ring lets you start deep work with a single tap. Zero white noise subscriptions or noisy alarms.

Alongside it, the Scratchpad widget guarantees you can capture fragile ideas in sub-80ms with zero taxonomy forced upfront.
