momentum — smooth lists to structure your ideas into actionable steps 😎
Featured
11

Work with simple and beautiful designed lists to structure your thoughts, ideas and projects into actionable steps. momentum is a powerful web-application:

- loosely based on GTD (inbox, projects, someday, next-steps, review...)

- offline mode (PWA)

- automated next steps

- endless nesting of projects and tasks

Looks cool but I'd like an interactive demo first before making yet another account to test it out :)

very hard to wrap my head around. seems like there is an unexplained method of getting things done behind this tool, which coupled with a science fiction sort of UX makes me feel like I am using a tool from 100 years in the future.

@stoweboyd Yes, momentum elevates several productivity methods including GTD & golden circles. We are planing on implementing even more. There is a little in-app-nerd providing support and workflow-hints (click on 🤔-emoji). And Yes, we are experimenting with some new UI-techniques for a more productive routine - getting used to it might take a little. Thanks for the feedback, stay productive Nik

@nikdeierlein Even after clicking on the smiley faces, something is still missing. Can I move things using the 'juncture' interface? The entire up/down left/right model is intriguing but it needs to be better explained.
Nik
@stoweboyd That's right, Items are moved between different lists via drag&drop. We will record more detailed tutorial-videos to supplement the workflow-hints 👍🙏.

„WTF! an other Productivity-App?“ F🙊💥🔥 Yeaaaaa & Hi Hunters, momentum is a new approach, implementing a workflow to get things done. Designed to clear up time and space for your vision, goals, projects and very next steps to get there 💭...nothing new so far 💭. Build on latest technology like PWA, ServiceWorker and encryption to make it secure and available on every device 💭...getting better 💭 regardless of operating system or browser, whatever internet connection and independent of app stores - because YOUR productivity should not be tied to that 💭that's something.... I think I'll check that out💭😜. Give it a try and let us know your thoughts. Nik and Rob

I only spent 20 minutes or so. Might be helpful to have a working instance with logically related elements, like tasks associated with an active project, where user is guided through obvious use cases, like adding a task to the project, moving tasks from one project to another, adding subtasks, filling in metadata, etc.

Pros:

innovative and attractive UX

Cons:

The inner model is not well-explained anywhere

I like it a lot! Built from the ground up for lovers of David Allen's book Getting Things Done. A lot of thought and love went into designing and building this app. It really is a thing of beauty! I think David Allen would approve. It does have some quirks, but nothing that can't be worked around. You can try it for a month for free and if you like it, it is $5 per month (no subscription required!). Sadly, the developers appear to have moved on to other projects and have gone quiet on social media. But I will continue to use it, love it, recommend it, and Get Things Done with it. Please note that if you try to download it from your phone's app store you will become confused and frustrated (there's multiple momentum apps out there). It's a web app, not a native app. The great thing about that is that it works on an device that has a browser. Just create a link to it from your phones home screen. Get it from their website momentum.earth.

I've used Momentum for about a year now. Before that, I used a range of other productivity and ToDo tools. I never managed to stick with one for long as there was always some integral aspect missing. There are two main features which I love about it: - I can access it from any device. It always looks and works the same. - There are no structural limitations. Therefore, I can use it to structure any professional and private project. It's true that the interface needs a little getting used to - but once you understand the underlying concept of the "iceberg", it becomes quite intuitive.

It is the first time I see an app really designed to support GTD. Besides, it it beautiful!

Like the concept, but is hard to get used to
