수요 읽기
두 모델이 독립적으로 평가 (측정 아님, 애널리스트 의견)
Opus와 Codex 두 AI의 읽기입니다. 측정된 수요가 아니라 판단이에요. 둘이 갈리면 그만큼 불확실하다는 뜻입니다.

리뷰가 말하는 불만
경쟁앱 리뷰 66개에서 추출
- “every morning I found it had reverted to a previous version, with some items deleted and others unchecked”
- “I spent about an hour making a detailed punch list only to find there is no save button... it died and I lost everything”
- “If you close out of the app and reopen it, then you have to re-enter everything manually”
- “sometimes doesn't save my work. Really frustrating to have to do it over again”
Bulletproof autosave via local persistence and iCloud sync is table stakes. An app that never loses a check would instantly win trust where competitors bleed 1-star reviews.
- “Have to get pro to repeat tasks”
- “I can’t put anything on repeat which actually beats the whole purpose of downloading the app”
- “everything needs to be paid for”
- “the ai thing, you have to pay for like $20 something dollars”
Keep recurring tasks free. Charge for extras (themes, icons, export), never core list behavior. Free repeats is a direct differentiator against Structured.
- “in less than a day, I was charged for the full year app... That is not a two day trail”
- “I paid for the PRO version and it indicated that it was for the lifetime of the app. Now I see that I have to PAY AGAIN”
- “they had added a “Restore” button in 8 pixel font”
Honest pricing is a moat here. One-time purchase or clearly labeled trial builds goodwill in a category poisoned by dark patterns.
- “Not possible to delete a checklist when you're done with it”
- “Couldn't figure out how to delete a checklist after I created it... so I deleted the entire app”
- “everyone has a hard time figuring out how to delete items. Hint: click and hold”
Obvious delete (swipe or edit mode, per iOS HIG). Small fix, big review-mover, and several competitors visibly fail it.
- “you cannot schedule reoccurring tasks Monday thru Friday (weekdays), just Daily, Weekly or Monthly”
- “you also cannot set annual reminders in the case of birthdays”
- “why can't i make something repeat but only on weekdays”
Weekday-only and yearly recurrence rules are cheap to build and explicitly requested multiple times.
- “as someone with chronic ADHD this app has helped me so much”
- “really helpful for time blindness”
- “The more ‘physical’, colorful, and less grid-like this app can be, the better for folks like me”
- “this app is exactly what i want for schedule the rest of the day”
A niche wedge: a simple checklist app tuned for ADHD users (visual, low friction, widget-first). Loud, loyal segment in these reviews.
1인이 만들 수 있나
개발 난이도와 리스크를 분해
Very buildable as a solo iOS app. Core checklist with local storage + iCloud sync, no backend, no accounts. The engineering bar is low; the bar is polish and trust (never lose data, obvious delete). Realistic scope is about a month for a solid v1 with widgets.
만든다면, 이렇게
1페이지 기획서 (출발점, 정답 아님)
A dead-simple checklist app that never loses your data and never paywalls the basics.
People with mild ADHD or busy routines who want a barebones list app with a good widget, and who are tired of subscription pop-ups.
Users lose tasks to sync bugs, hit paywalls for repeating items, and can't figure out basic actions like deleting a list. The simple end of the market is served by stale apps (last updated 2021-2024) with weak ratings.
- ·Accounts and servers
- ·AI features
- ·Subscription-only basic features
- ·Inbox / task scheduling complexity (this is where Structured frustrates users)
One list, add/check/delete items, autosave, widget, no ads. Ship in a weekend, add recurrence and multiple lists in week two.
Free core with a one-time 'Pro' unlock (themes, icons, export, multiple widgets). No subscription. Say so in the App Store description; it is a selling point in this category.
솔직한 경고
이 기회의 가장 큰 함정
The top of this keyword is locked by giants with 100k+ reviews, so your real fight is long-tail ASO and review trust, not features.
