Product clarity
Every major feature maps to a moment in the workday.
TodoFocus is not a storage cabinet for obligations. It is a compact loop: catch the thought, pick the right task, launch its context, protect attention, and review what changed.
Deep Focus
Keep focus state close to the menu bar.
The Deep Focus status panel shows whether a session is active, how many apps are blocked, and gives quick access back into TodoFocus.
Blocked apps + session state
Daily Review
Review the day before it becomes clutter.
The Daily Review board separates overdue, today, tomorrow, later, and completed work so you can move tasks with a clear sense of status.
Open, today, tomorrow, done
Context Launchpad
Tasks can carry the tools needed to finish them.
Add URLs, files, and apps to a task, then launch the whole workspace when you are ready. The task becomes the doorway back into the actual work.
