New productivity app transforms how users approach weekly planning with intuitive day-based organization and automatic task flow
Portugal, 6th October, 2025 – Independent developer Henrique Macedo announced the launch of DayDrift, an innovative todo app for iOS that organizes tasks by weekdays rather than traditional lists. Unlike conventional task managers, DayDrift features intelligent daily progression that automatically moves incomplete tasks forward, helping users maintain momentum and avoid overwhelming backlogs.
DayDrift introduces a fresh approach to task management with its signature accordion-style interface that expands each day to reveal associated tasks. The app's core innovation lies in its automatic progression system – incomplete tasks seamlessly flow to the next available day, preventing the common productivity trap of accumulating overdue items.
"Traditional todo apps often become graveyards of forgotten tasks," said Henrique Macedo, creator of DayDrift. "DayDrift keeps your workflow alive by ensuring tasks naturally progress through your week, maintaining focus on what matters today while preserving important items for tomorrow."
Smart Weekly Organization: Choose between 5-day work week or full 7-day mode, with customizable week start preferences to match any schedule.
Automatic Daily Progression: The app's progression manager intelligently moves incomplete tasks to the next available day, maintaining workflow continuity without manual intervention.
Streak Tracking: Visual streak indicators motivate users by tracking consecutive days tasks remain active, with color-coded intensity levels from yellow to red.
CloudKit Sync: Premium users enjoy seamless synchronization across all Apple devices with CloudKit integration, ensuring tasks stay current everywhere.
Flexible Model: Free users can manage up to 7 incomplete tasks, while the premium "Unlimited" tier removes all restrictions and adds CloudKit sync, completed task history, and advanced viewing options.
DayDrift leverages native iOS technology including SwiftUI, Core Data, and StoreKit, delivering a polished experience that feels at home on Apple platforms. The app supports both light and dark themes, multiple languages, and follows Apple's accessibility guidelines.
The intuitive interface features expandable day sections that adapt to available screen space, contextual menus for quick task actions, and smooth animations powered by SwiftUI's spring system. Premium users gain access to comprehensive task history and the ability to view completed items with configurable time windows.
