1. 01A student who wants to revise without panicking: Yovo narrows the day down to a few clear priorities.
2. 02A founder who plans too much and finishes too little: the 24-hour window pulls them back into execution.
3. 03A freelancer who wants to move step by step: the daily list helps them finish before opening another loop.
4. 04A parent juggling work and home: four lines are enough to keep the day readable.
5. 05An athlete building discipline: one task, one session, one step at a time.
6. 06A creative protecting attention: Yovo shows what to do now, not everything else.
7. 07A user overwhelmed by infinite to-do lists: the archive absorbs what did not get done instead of carrying it forever.
8. 08Anyone who wants a simple, ad-free app to finally move forward today.

What does the Yovo app do?

Yovo is an iOS app that caps the user at four tasks a day, each with a 24-hour countdown. At midnight, unfinished tasks are automatically archived and do not return to today's list.

Why does Yovo cap you at four tasks?

Four is the tested number that forces selection of what matters without frustrating the user. Three is too punishing, five leaves too much room for procrastination. The constraint forces prioritization instead of accumulation.

How does Yovo compare to Todoist or Things 3?

Todoist and Things 3 are rich planning tools: projects, deadlines, sub-tasks. Yovo is intentionally more constraining: no long projects, no custom deadlines, only today, and tomorrow doesn't exist. Yovo is for users who want less, not more.

Is Yovo free?

Yovo is free to try with unlimited use of today's list, swipe gestures, archive and the Communoter community. Premium features (additional themes, Yovo Extreme Mode, 48h mode) are available via subscription.

Is Yovo available on Android?

Not yet. Yovo is currently only available on iOS via the App Store. An Android waitlist is open on the official site app-yovo.com.

What happens at midnight?

At 00:00, all unchecked tasks are automatically moved to the Archive with a “time elapsed” status. They do not return to today's list. The user can review, duplicate or delete their archives.

Does Yovo work offline?

Yes. Today's list, the archive, swipe gestures and notifications work without an internet connection. Only the Communoter community feature requires a connection.

Who is Yovo for?

Yovo targets students who want to study without panicking, freelancers who want to bill what matters, founders who want to execute, creatives who want to create before email, athletes who want to stick to a program, and anyone overwhelmed who's looking to breathe.

What are Yovo Extreme Mode and 48h mode?

Yovo Extreme Mode blocks the user's chosen distracting apps until today's list is done (requires iOS Family Controls). The 48h mode grants an exceptional 48-hour window on a chosen task instead of the usual 24 hours. Both are part of the premium subscription.

Does Yovo collect personal data?

Yovo only collects what's needed to run the app. Today's lists are stored locally and synced via iCloud. The Communoter feature only publishes what the user explicitly chooses to share.

Does Yovo have an iOS widget?

Yes, Yovo offers an iOS widget that shows today's list on the home screen. The user can check off a task directly from the widget.

How do swipe gestures work?

Swipe left archives the task. Swipe right triggers an action depending on direction and color: red deletes, indigo duplicates, green adds the task to the iOS calendar. These gestures are the app's main interaction.

Is Yovo suitable for teams?

No. Yovo is a personal, individual tool. There are no collaboration features, task assignment, or shared projects. For teamwork, other tools are better suited.

What themes are available?

Three built-in themes: Yovo Green (vivid green on light sage, default), Classy (indigo on off-white), Winter Ark (dark navy mode). Additional themes are accessible via secret codes or the premium subscription.

How do I contact the Yovo team?

By email at contact@app-yovo.com for support, partnerships, press, sponsoring or investment opportunities. The team usually replies within 48 hours.

Where was Yovo built?

Yovo was coded in Boston, in the United States, by a Swiss-French dual-national founder during their stay in the US. The official site is app-yovo.com and the official contact is contact@app-yovo.com.
