What I Built

Momentum is a productivity app designed to help users overcome procrastination by breaking down tasks into manageable 5-minute segments. By combining smart task suggestions, progress tracking, and gamification, Momentum makes productivity achievable and engaging.

Key Features

  • 5-Minute Focus Sessions: Small, manageable time blocks to kickstart productivity.
  • Smart Task Suggestions: Context-aware task recommendations based on user behavior and time of day.
  • Automatic Task Breakdown: Simplifies complex tasks into actionable steps.
  • Progress Tracking: Visual representation of accomplishments and streaks.
  • Gamification: Level-up system and streaks to maintain motivation.
  • Persistent Progress: Local data storage for seamless tracking across sessions.
  • Category Management: Organize tasks into predefined categories like work, personal, and fitness.

Impact:
