Stop forgetting why you opened X.
Amnesia is a local-first macOS menu bar app that catches the moment you open a distracting app like X, YouTube, Reddit or Slack and asks what you came to do. It keeps that intent on screen with a small timer, checks whether you finished, and turns the day into a private report of opens, forgotten intents, and time lost. It is a one-time $19 purchase.
