Sample tasks. The popover is live: click a circle to finish one, or type your own.
Only what you need, right now
One task in the menu bar, a short list under it, and a quiet place for everything else. Nothing to set up, nothing to maintain.
⌃⌥Space
Park the thought
Type it, press Return, and you're back in your work in about two seconds.
⌃⌥Return
Finish it
Confetti, a soft chime, and the next task moves in.
Four parts, one job each
Each one stays out of the way until you need it.
The menu bar
Your current task sits above every window in plain system text, next to the Shine mark. It shows no timer, count or red badge.
The list and Up next
One ordered queue, cut after five rows (you can pick anything from 3 to 10). The rest waits in Up next and moves into the list as you finish.
The Parking Lot
Loose thoughts wait here instead of derailing you. Move one into your queue when it earns a place. The rest fade on their own after 7 days.
Wins and the daily reset
Everything you finish today collects in Wins. Click a check to bring a task back. Wins clear at your daily reset, 4:00 am by default.
Small things, handled
A check-in, not a nag
By default, a small dot appears after 45 minutes on one task. Open the list and answer Yep, Switch, or Park it.
Undo for 5 seconds
Delete a task by mistake and it returns to the exact spot it left.
Take your tasks with you
Export as plain text, Markdown, or JSON. Import only adds tasks. It does not replace what you have.

Frequently Asked Questions
Something else? Write to feedback@solodo.app.
Why only one task in the menu bar?
A long list is easy to avoid. One task keeps the next step obvious, and everything else shows as a quiet count until you open it.
What happens to my tasks without a license?
Solodo does not delete, hide or lock your tasks. If a license is refunded or can't be checked, the app still shows, completes and exports everything you have.
Can I get a refund?
Yes, within 30 days of buying. Write to feedback@solodo.app and ask for your money back.
Does Solodo send my tasks anywhere?
No. Tasks live in a file on your Mac. The only network calls are the license check and update checks. There are no analytics or tracking of any kind.
What if parked thoughts pile up?
Parked thoughts fade on their own after 7 days by default (you can pick 14 or 30). Tasks in your queue do not expire.
Does it need special permissions?
Global shortcuts can need a macOS permission. Solodo explains why in one sentence before the system prompt appears, and you can always open the list from the menu bar.
Which Macs does it run on?
Any Mac on macOS 14 Sonoma or later, Apple silicon or Intel.
