Hey HN! In 2020, I stumbled across a productivity method called the "Ivy Lee method" [1], and found it made me much more productive. Basically, you write down 6 tasks you need to do throughout the day, then focus solely on them. I was so impressed that I ended up writing an android app to help me follow it, which I've been using for about a year. I've spruced it up a bit, and launched it today as "Only 6".

There's a free version [2] (ad-supported), and a paid version [3].

I built it with React Native, ClojureScript, and Re-Frame. It's currently closed source, but if you'd like to see the source code just drop a comment here and I'll consider making it open source. It's Android-only at the moment, but if anyone would like to team up on an iOS version please drop me a message :)

Any comments or feedback are much appreciated!
