First of the challenges are getting completed, amazing work folks 👏👏👏

I'm still digging out from under the deluge of wonderful feedback this holiday season (at least I don't have to deal with snow this year). If you haven't seen it, @gruber.foo wrote about Finalist, and explained it far better than I ever could. Lots more to come in 2026!

Use the app for 30 days and get Lifetime for free?? The 30-Day Challenge to get your ready for 2026 is live 🤩

New beta is up, mostly fixes to a few reported problems: finalist.works/beta

iOS 26 is not just about pretty Glass: Live Activities that follow your Reminders and Calendar; Dictate your tasks and have them scheduled in Reminders; or have your day’s agenda read to you (including the weather ahead). Finalist makes your phone pretty smart! 🤓 #iOS26

Finalist 3D is progressing nicely, here is the new interactive widget on my wall 😬 #visionos #visionpro

Public iOS Beta meet Finalist Public Beta 🙌 Use your on-device LLMs to quickly create daily or Reminder lists. You can even set your own prompt. Lots more iOS 26 goodness in this TestFlight

The widget in the latest beta has a special new power: you can now browse through your week without opening the app. Picks up your Reminders, Calendar events and any tasks and habits you setup in Finalist.

Have you tried Finalist 3 yet? I'll be dropping LIFETIME unlock codes here to celebrate the launch, here's 5 to get started (redeem through Apple App Store). Follow / share for more 🙏 E43AFR9THMEA 3F6JFYMLRPAH 63MJFHJ9W3F6 RTFW3NPXNLE4 MPRWKFPF6WYE

Finalist 3 is out after nine months of coding 😅 It's a daily planner that manages your calendars and reminders better than your Reminders app. I'm running a crazy launch special: get a lifetime license for $5 (five!) dollars

3.0 Release approved by Apple! 29 builds and many months of testing - thank you 466 testers 🫡

There's more to iOS 26 than Liquid Glass: here are some on-device processing experiments, feels like a game changer for getting things done

I just pushed the first iOS 26 beta of Finalist to TestFlight, fully embracing Liquid Glass reality.

The Monthly summary in the latest beta is inspired by Fabriano's wonderful Wallis wall calendars fabriano.com/en/product/w...

Do you subscribe to too many calendars you want to track, family or otherwise? Now they'll be shown without taking up too much space. 🗓️

Thanks for the feedback, we're getting somewhere 😀

The new widget - thoughts?

The app Finalist by @dayplanner.bsky.social looks really sleek. I'll have to check it out (probably after WWDC). The design looks like what I'd want from a Reminders app, plus it uses Apple's Reminders system. Really neat. Version 3 looks great! Can't wait to try it. apps.apple.com/us/app/sched...

It's almost time to level up #finalist3

Another beta has dropped - getting closer!

Update from the trenches: Finalist 3 is coming along nicely! All the action is in the new Discord community, come on in to join the TestFlight: finalist.works/discord

The first Finalist 3 build is now live in TestFlight 👍 If you'd like to participate, see below...
