## Description

Three taps and you're already doing something. No feed to fall into, no account to make, nothing to scroll. Tell it your energy and your time — it tells you what to do.

Bored is the three-tap answer to "there's nothing to do."

Tell it your energy, how long you've got and where you are. It hands you one thing to do. You go and do it. There is no feed here, no list to browse, no account to make — because choosing is how you end up scrolling instead of moving.

ONE TASK. NOT A LIST.
The whole app is built around handing you a single thing. Answer three questions, get one task, do it. Love it and you'll see more like it. Say never again and you'll never see it twice. It learns from two buttons and nothing else.

THE RED BUTTON
One task, no questions asked, thirty seconds to say no. For the days when even three taps is too much deciding.

PHONE DOWN
Start a timer, put the phone in your pocket, and it buzzes you back when the time is up. The countdown lives on your Lock Screen so you never have to unlock to check it — and the app quietly notices how many times you picked the phone up anyway. It will tell you afterwards. Gently.

EIGHT MORE WAYS IN
When a plain suggestion isn't enough:
• Mystery Box — one object or one rule. You don't get to choose.
• Personas — do the same task as somebody else entirely.
• Time Capsule — write a note to whoever you are in a month, and you can't read it before then.
• Internet Gems — the parts of the internet that are still worth visiting.
• Ambient — listen here, or to a radio station somewhere very far away.
• One Stroke, Crowns and Noughts and Crosses — three games, below.

THREE GAMES, NEW EVERY DAY
• One Stroke — one unbroken line through every square, hitting the numbers in order, with walls in the way.
• Crowns — one crown per row, per column and per colour, and no two of them touching. Not even corners.
• Noughts and Crosses — against the phone, or against whoever is sitting next to you. The one thing in here you can't do alone.
Every board is generated from the calendar date itself. Same puzzle for everybody, same puzzle on any phone, nothing downloaded.

IT KEEPS SCORE, QUIETLY
Tasks done. Days in a row. Minutes spent away from the phone. Badges you didn't ask for. A twelve-week map of when you actually did something — and an honest line about which hour of the day usually gets you.

NOTHING LEAVES YOUR PHONE
No account. No sign-up. No email. No tracking of what you did or when. Your history, your notes, your photos and your streaks stay on the device. There is no server here to leak them.

WIDGETS AND THE LOCK SCREEN
Put a suggestion on your Home Screen or Lock Screen and it changes through the day, picking things that fit the hour rather than things that don't. Nobody wants "watch the sunrise" at eleven at night.
