TaskGo!

A tranquil menu bar productivity app for macOS. Stay focused, earn XP, level up your day.

Download for macOS v1.0.0

Requires macOS 14.0 (Sonoma) or later

Installation

1

Download & open the DMG

Click the download button above. Open the downloaded TaskGo-1.0.0.dmg file and drag TaskGo!.app to your Applications folder (or anywhere you like).

2

Allow the app to open

macOS may show a warning saying "TaskGo! can't be opened." This is normal for apps distributed outside the Mac App Store. To allow it:

Option A (easiest): Go to System Settings → Privacy & Security, scroll down, and click "Open Anyway" next to the TaskGo! message. Then try opening the app again.

Option B (Terminal): Open Terminal and run this command:

xattr -cr /Applications/TaskGo!.app

Adjust the path if you placed the app somewhere else. On macOS Sequoia, Option A is recommended.

3

Launch TaskGo!

Double-click the app. A checkmark icon will appear in your menu bar — click it to get started. You only need to do step 2 once.

Everything you need, nothing you don't

⚡

Task Go Mode

A floating timer counts down your task. When time's up, it gently bounces and plays a peaceful alarm. Complete or add more time — your call.

⭐

XP & Levels

Earn 1 XP for every minute of verified work. Level up to 100 with progressively harder milestones. Your productivity, gamified.

📄

Smart Task Groups

Organize tasks into named groups with tabs. "Urgent", "Side Projects", "Errands" — whatever works for your brain.

🕒

Time Estimates

Set how long each task should take. TaskGo! uses this to run your focus sessions and keep you honest about time.

💻

Lives in Your Menu Bar

One click to open, one click to add a task. No dock icon, no window management. It's just there when you need it.

🔒

Privacy-First Activity Check

XP verification detects keyboard and mouse activity — never what you type. Your work is verified, your privacy is protected.

How it works

1

Add your tasks

Click the menu bar icon, add tasks with names, descriptions, and time estimates. Organize them into groups.

2

Hit "Task Go!"

A floating timer appears on screen. It starts counting down from your first task's time estimate.

3

Work through your list

Complete tasks, earn XP, and watch yourself level up. The timer auto-advances to the next task when you're done.

4

Feel accomplished

See your level grow, track your weekly XP, and know exactly how productive you were.

Gamify your grind

TaskGo! turns your daily work into a progression system. Every minute of real work earns you XP. How high can you level?
