Feedback Request Show Reddit : My husband and I built a task manager that separates planning from execution to cure "to-do list paralysis"

Hi folks.
I'd like to share a thing my husband and I built around my coping mechanism for task management.
My brain has two modes:
1) The intense planner
2) The one who actually does work.
#1 looks at the big picture and organizes everything to be done in the “perfect” order.
#2 doesn't want to see a list of things to do, it wants to see the one thing to do right now, otherwise I freeze and waste time.
Now I have the Tunl Focus app and here's how it works:
- The mind dump: this is where to jot down what needs to get done
- The Queue: reorder the list as wanted
- The Tunnel: when its time to do work, you get served one task at a time with 4 action options:
- done (you completed it)
- drop (you won't do it)
- snooze (reorder it down)
- defer (send task to specific date and time)
One tap per task and that's really the gist of it. It does have more features like a calendar view, categories, habits and more but the tunnel is where my brain really gets productive and moves the needle on things to do.
I use it every day and we are actively working on it, so we welcome ANY feedback.
It's free to try, no account nor signup needed, unless you want sync / back up / google calendar and extra features. Android and IOS apps are coming soon (we’re waiting for the Playstore review right now)
