About OnlyThis: Single Task Timer
OnlyThis is a focus timer and to-do app for people that regular to-do lists don't help. Instead of a list, it shows you one thing and a timer.
Your brain is fine. It's the lists that are built against it.
OnlyThis shows one thing at a time. Nothing else. No list shouting from the screen, no badges, no scorecard for yesterday. Just what you chose, a quietly shrinking ring of time, and a big Start button.
CAN'T GET MOVING? THAT'S THE MOST IMPORTANT BUTTON HERE
Tap "I can't start" and OnlyThis picks a task for you and gives it two minutes. That's all. After two minutes you're allowed to stop - that's not failure, that's the deal. (You usually don't.)
BUILT AROUND HOW ATTENTION ACTUALLY WORKS
- One task on screen - the rest waits out of sight until you reach for it
- Time you can see: a ring instead of digits counting down to zero
- "Too big" - helps you find the smallest first move, the thirty-second one
- "Not today" - the task steps aside; it doesn't vanish and it doesn't come back resentful
- Brain dump - write down everything sitting in your head, line by line, then return to one thing
- Time calibration: "that took twelve minutes and felt like two hours"
- "Done today" - a list for the evenings when it feels like you did nothing
PRIVATE BY DESIGN, NOT BY POLICY
- Works fully offline - your tasks never leave your phone
- No account, no sign-up, no email
- No ads, no analytics, no data collection. That's it.
ONE PRICE, ONCE
The core is free. A single purchase unlocks unlimited subtasks and full statistics - for good, on your Google account. No subscription. Ever.
Made by an independent developer, not a corporation with a fund behind it.
OnlyThis is a focus tool, not a medical product. It does not diagnose or treat any condition.

Version 1.2 · Updated August 11, 2026
Layout fix for smaller screens: the language bar and the queue no longer overlap the field for breaking a task into steps. Nothing else changes - your data still stays on your phone.
