Most task apps are either too simple or too complex. Dimmly hits the middle. 5 list types: tasks, ranked, expenses (Sum), game night scores, and grocery mode. Habit streaks built into every task. Paste any text and it becomes a list instantly. Big Notes and Checklists inside tasks. 25 color palettes or create your own. iCloud sync across iPhone and Mac. Free for 5 full lists. Unlimited for a one-time $6.99. No subscription, no account, ever.

Hey Product Hunt! Edu here, solo dev behind Dimmly and Trovelo (the private trip planner you might have seen here before). I built Dimmly because I kept bouncing between apps that were either too minimal to be useful or too complex to actually stick with. I wanted something in between — gesture-first, no account, no subscription, and list types that actually match how people think. Here's what makes it different from every other task app out there: 5 list types that cover your whole day: - List — your classic task list, nothing fancy, just works - Ranked — numbered list so you can prioritize what actually matters today - Sum — you add an amount to each item and it shows a running total at the bottom. Perfect for tracking trip expenses, splitting costs, or budgeting on the go - Score — a live scoreboard for game night. Each player racks up points and the list auto sorts by who's winning. My friends use this every week - Grocery — shopping mode where you set how many of each item you need and swipe to cross them off as you go Habits built into every task: No separate habits section. You set how many times per day you want to complete something — drink water 4x, take vitamins 2x — and dot indicators on the card fill in as you go. Resets every day automatically. Other things I'm proud of: - Paste & go — copy any list from any LLM, Notes, or anywhere and it becomes a Dimmly list instantly - Big Notes and Checklists inside any task - 25 color palettes per list or create your own — it's like having a post-it system where each context has its own color - iCloud sync across iPhone and Mac - CSV import and export - Home screen widgets - No account required, nothing goes to a server Pricing that doesn't feel gross: Free for 5 fully featured lists — alarms, streaks, widgets, all of it included. No feature gating. Unlimited lists for a one-time $6.99. Pay once, yours forever across iPhone and Mac. Would love honest feedback — what's missing, what feels off, what you'd want next. I read everything and it genuinely shapes what gets built. Happy to answer anything 🙏 - Reddit r/dimmly

The one-time $6.99 price with no account required is a refreshing move, and the paste-any-text-into-list feature sounds genuinely useful instead of gimmicky.

@abe_sha Thank you! Those two were non-negotiable from the start honestly. The subscription model just doesn't make sense for a tool this personal, and the paste feature came from my own frustration of having ChatGPT generate a perfect list and then having to type it all over again. Glad it lands as useful rather than gimmicky, that was the goal 🙏
