Fast capture
Write down a thought, task, or idea immediately, without going through a long form.
Capture fast, return later, finish when you have time.
FlowList is a lightweight app for tasks, routines, and goals. Capture a thought immediately, organize it later, and see progress without a heavy planning system.
What it is
One list for things that pop into your head and return at the right moment.
FlowList does not demand a complete plan in the first second. First you capture, then you add a due date, recurrence, steps, tags, and a goal.
Fill in details later
The list stays simple until you need more context.
- Due date
- Recurrence
- Steps
- Tags
- Goal
Application data is stored only on the user's device.
Tasks with steps
Break bigger things into short steps, mark progress, and return to details when needed.
Routines and recurrence
Set repeating work: every few days, weeks, months, or up to a chosen number of completions.
Goals with progress
Connect tasks with goals and see whether you are actually moving toward the result you want to finish.
Filters, tags, and history
Find active and completed items by type, tag, goal, or plain search.
Local-first
The app stores data locally, supports export and import, and works without a required account.
Access
FlowList is not published as a public web app.
The public website is informational. The working app is kept out of the website build and is run locally for development or packaged for Android.
Local-only app access
The browser build is for local development and Android packaging. It is not linked or hosted from the public website.
FAQ
Common questions before first use.
A short note on local data, local builds, and the Android channel.
Do I need to install FlowList to start?
The public website does not host the app. The browser build is used locally during development, and Android is the install path prepared for phones.
Do I need an account?
No. FlowList is designed as a local-first app, so basic use does not require logging in or creating an account.
Does the app work offline?
Yes. FlowList stores data locally in the local browser build or Android app. Key parts of the app can work without a constant internet connection.
How is FlowList different from a classic task list?
FlowList starts with quick capture and lets you clarify later. That makes it useful for tasks and ideas that can become routines and goals over time.
How do Android and Google Play work?
The public website does not expose the browser app. Google Play is the Android distribution channel for the same FlowList app after the listing is published.
Where is the data stored?
Tasks, goals, tags, and settings are saved locally on the user's device using IndexedDB. FlowList does not require an account and does not send this data to an external backend.

User guideHow to use FlowList from the first task to a backup.
This panel explains the basic app concepts: tasks, steps, goals, tags, view types, recurrence, and import/export settings.
Tasks and steps
A task is something to do or an idea saved for later. You can add a due date, time, steps, tags, and a linked goal.
Due dates
A due date moves a task into overdue or dated views. Time is optional, so a task can have only a day or no date at all.
Recurrence
A recurring task returns from the selected date every chosen number of days, weeks, months, or years.
Repeats
The Completed field shows how many cycles are done. Max defines the total repeat limit; an empty Max means an open-ended cycle.
Goals and tags
A goal groups tasks around an outcome, while a tag is a colored label for filtering by context, such as work, home, or health.
Types and data
View types are filters: All, One-off, Recurring, Goals, and Tags. Settings also let you export or import JSON.
The simplest start: type a task into quick add and open it for editing later. You do not need to set a date, goal, or tags immediately.
A one-off task ends after being marked complete. A recurring task, if it has not reached its Max limit, stays active and shows the next due date from its rhythm.
Read recurrence like a sentence: every 1 week, every 2 months, or every 1 year. A 3/12 counter means 3 cycles are complete out of 12 planned; 3/∞ means there is no final limit.
Goals measure a larger intention. Tags are looser: use them for areas like work, home, health, or urgent.
JSON export saves a data copy to a file. JSON import replaces the current content with file data, while the current theme and language stay local.
Sample JSON data is ready to test. Download the sample data file, then open Settings in the app and choose Import JSON.
Data and privacyWhat FlowList stores on the user's device.
The current FlowList version works without an account or contact form. The public website can load Google Analytics 4 only after user consent; task data remains local.
App data
Tasks, goals, tags, history, theme, and app language are stored locally in IndexedDB on the user's device.
Website language
The website has separate language versions: English at the root address and Polish at /pl/.
Offline mode
The browser can save technical files needed for faster loading and offline use.
Analytics after consent
Google Analytics 4 on the information website loads only after acceptance. If consent is declined, we do not store GA cookies.
Data saved in FlowList stays in the browser or app on the user's device. JSON export creates a local data copy, and JSON import loads the selected file into the local database.
The user can remove app data in FlowList settings with the “Clear saved data” button or by clearing site data in the browser. Cached files can be removed through browser or system settings.
The analytics decision can be changed with the “Privacy settings” button in the footer. Withdrawing consent disables analytics and removes known Google Analytics cookies from this domain.
After acceptance, Google Analytics 4 may store first-party cookies _ga and _ga_<service-identifier>, by default for up to 2 years, to distinguish users and sessions. We do not use Google Analytics for ads, remarketing, or sending task content.

This section provides the basic privacy and cookie notice for the website's current scope. If ads, remarketing, a contact form, sync, embedded payments, or additional tools are added later, the notice and consent mechanism must be expanded before those features run.
The voluntary support link opens an external payment service. After following that link, the service's own privacy and cookie rules apply.
