The Executioner

A simple system for managing daily tasks and improving executive functioning.

The Executioner is a simple app that trains your brain to manage time. It’s designed for all users, but especially for those who have difficulty with sustained focus, multi-step planning, or writing.

Unlike most productivity apps, it isn’t designed to automate tasks or remember them for you. Instead, it guides you through some basic steps of active assessment and planning. With regular use, you’ll become more able to break down tasks yourself, automatically, without the app.

The Executioner consists of 3 main tools:

1. The Daily Schedule, where you assign a specific time of the day for each task.

2. The Project Page, which breaks down a specific, complex task into steps, and gives you a visual timer to sharpen your focus while you work.

3. The Diagnostics Page, which helps you to track and identify challenge areas, and record the strategies that have been working well for you.

Each of these tools incorporates visual-spatial representations and concrete step-by-step procedures, and should be easy to use for a wide variety of learning styles.

Detailed information about how to use The Executioner is included in the “Info” page within the app.
