What Daybox is
Daybox is a timeboxing app from Daybox in Paradise, Texas, for organizing focused work into timed tasks. Users set tasks, start a timer, and let the next task begin automatically when one ends. Tasks can be reordered by dragging and dropping, and durations can change while the timer runs. Recurring tasks and focus sessions support repeatable routines, while emojis and colors customize task lists. A chime marks each completed task and a celebration signals the end of a session. Daybox works on Android, iOS, and the web. Its progressive web app runs offline, can be installed from a browser home screen, and says data stays on the device. Optional cloud sync synchronizes task lists across devices after sign-in. iOS adds an Apple Watch companion, Live Activities, haptic taps, and background notifications; Android provides lock-screen and background timer notifications. The app is free to use and needs no account to begin.
