Most task apps lie to you.

They promise that if you check enough boxes, you’ll feel caught up. You won’t. There’s always another box. Camus knew this. He wrote about a man condemned to push a boulder up a mountain forever - and said we should imagine him happy.

Uphill doesn’t fix that problem. It just stops pretending the problem doesn’t exist.

To complete a task, you don’t tap a checkbox. You press, hold, and push it up the screen - against real resistance - until it reaches the top. Some tasks are light. Some tasks fight back.

Light task~1s
Heavy task~2.5s

What it actually does

Push to complete

Press, hold, and push each task up the screen. Haptic resistance makes heavier tasks feel heavier.

The void

Type what’s bothering you. Watch it dissolve. Nothing is saved. Not even by us.

Cosmic perspective

One tap zooms you out - past the city, past Earth, past the galaxy - and reminds you none of this is being recorded.

Dice of fate

Two choices in, one choice out. No re-rolls. For when you’d rather let chance decide.


No streaks that guilt you.
No fake urgency. No badges for showing up.

If you want a streak counter, it’s there - premium, optional, and it knows exactly what it is:

We’re not going to pretend a broken streak is a tragedy. It’s Tuesday.


Built like something, not shipped like nothing.


Free to use. Honest about the rest.

Push tasks, use the daily reset, and try the core app for as long as you want - free.

Unlock everything else - unlimited tasks, The Void, Cosmic Perspective, badges, and more - starting at $0.99/month, with a 14-day free trial. Or skip the subscription entirely: $9.99 once, forever.
