Ask HN: Feedback on a Mobile-First Solution to Procrastination
1 comments
For me, one of the strategies that made a lot of difference was checking what tasks I could do where, since there was plenty of work I needed to do away from the computer. The context that a task takes place in matters a surprising amount.
Beyond that, though, I'm very intrigued by the idea of the tool adapting to work habits. Looks interesting!

Breaks your work down into smaller pieces (30minutes -> 1.5hrs, our attention spans are short)
Helps you estimate how long work will take (based on your past personal history)
Adapts to your working habits ("John really gets a lot of work done at 11pm on Sundays, let's ask him to schedule a short task then to save him time later")
Show you how much free time you have and how you can get more
Help you eliminate distractions
Syncs with Google Calendar, Evernote and Dropbox (Coming later)
…and more
