Not Another Task App
There are already plenty of good task managers: Todoist, Things, Reminders, Notion, Linear, and many others.
Most of them ask you to switch into a system. Open an app, pick a project, clean up a list, and decide where everything belongs.
Nook is built for the moment before that. Capture the thought from the edge of your screen, then go back to work.
