A complete Getting Things Done (GTD) productivity system for desktop and mobile.
Mind Like Water
Mindwtr is simple by default and powerful when needed. We focus on reducing cognitive load, cutting the fat, and keeping you in flow.
- Progressive disclosure keeps advanced controls out of sight until you need them.
- Less by default means fewer fields and fewer distractions.
- Avoid feature creep so the UI stays calm and purposeful.
Don’t show me a cockpit when I just want to ride a bike.
