UghOkay

An anti-doomscroll iOS app: instead of opening the feed, tap once and get one small thing to do. A home-screen widget lives where the feed used to, with smart suggestions by time of day. No account, no ads, no tracking. Free for 10 activities; Unlimited unlocks the rest.

📱 Ugh Okay — The Button That Saves Your Brain

🚀 About the Project

A tiny mobile app to fight doomscrolling.

One button. One random task. A slightly better day.

Built during a real-life procrastination spiral.

🔥 The Problem

Most productivity apps are too overwhelming when you're stuck in paralysis.

Ugh Okay offers one small action — no pressure, no guilt, no endless checklists.

🛠️ The Solution

A home-screen widget lives where the feed used to — same thumb reflex, different destination

Tap it, get one activity, do it, done

Smart suggestions by time of day, not pure random

Preloaded activities or add your own; remove the ones you hate forever

Fully offline. No accounts. No tracking.

📈 Tech Stack

Rewritten natively in 2026 — SwiftUI, WidgetKit for the home-screen widget, App Groups for widget/app data sharing, RevenueCat for subscriptions (originally an Expo app in 2025, rebuilt from scratch for the widget and native feel)
