Your Lock Screen is the app

  • A Live Activity shows your current task and a progress ring. Complete or defer it without unlocking.
  • The same task at a glance in the Dynamic Island.
  • Home and Lock Screen widgets, plus Control Center buttons.

1-second capture

  • Add tasks with the Action Button, Back Tap, Control Center or Siri, without opening the app.
  • Natural-language dates. Type "report by Friday" and the date is set.

Focused on today

  • Shows the one task to do right now instead of a wall of lists.
  • Defer by an hour, to this evening, tomorrow or next week.
  • Repeating tasks, reminders, a weekly and monthly calendar, and search across everything.

Together (beta)

  • Share to-dos with a partner, roommates or family, with a separate space for each group.
  • Join by opening an invite link. There is no sign-up; it runs on iCloud.
  • See who completed what in real time.

Progress you can feel

  • Streaks, a weekly chart, and 30-day and priority stats.
  • Five theme colors restyle the app, widgets and the Lock Screen ring together.

Your data stays yours

  • Every feature is free and no account is needed.
  • Personal tasks are stored on your iPhone. Shared spaces sync through your own iCloud.
  • Included in iCloud backups, with JSON export and import.

The maker

Made by Soravo, a studio of one.

NowTodo is designed, built and maintained by Seungwoo Kim at Soravo, a one-person iOS studio founded in July 2026 and based in South Korea. The app is built with Claude Code, Anthropic's agentic coding tool, which is how a single developer took the app from 1.0 to version 1.5.9 within six weeks of launch.

Next on the roadmap: turning a messy voice note into dated, prioritized tasks with the Claude API. Prompt tests started in October 2026.
