The TaskRecess loop

Work can pause without losing its place.

  1. 01
    Current

    Keep the work in front of you visible.

  2. 02
    Park

    Say why it stopped and what matters next.

  3. 03
    Resume or complete

    Return directly when the path is clear.

Built for interrupted days

Smaller than a task manager, clearer than a mental note.

01

Keep one task Current

Attention stays visible. Everything else can wait without disappearing into a general list.

02

Record why work stopped

Choose Paused, Waiting on, or Blocked by, then add the hold-up detail that will matter later.

03

Return without reconstruction

Resume, edit, complete, or immediately undo an accidental completion from the place work was preserved.

Inside TaskRecess

Deliberate at every boundary.

TaskRecess imports only when you invoke the share sheet and confirm Park, exports only when you choose a destination, and keeps widget disclosure count-only until you choose otherwise.

Local by design

Your task content stays on this iPhone.

TaskRecess has no user account, backend, developer cloud service, iCloud sync, advertising, analytics, tracking, or third-party runtime SDKs. It does not inspect your clipboard, email, messages, contacts, activity in other apps, or behavior.

Free core, optional Pro tools

Data control is not an upgrade.

TaskRecess Pro is a one-time in-app purchase processed by Apple and adds unlimited parked tasks, local history, hold-up presets, CSV export, and expanded widget details. Pricing is shown in the App Store.
