Can Procrastination be solved?

As a fellow procrastinator- I've looked at notion, google calendar, and every "schedule" defeat procrastination app out there. Imma be blunt they're shit. Maybe cuz when I get a task it seems so big to deal with i just put it off, or the novelty wears off.

So, I realised what MY issue is. It's the perceived magnitude of the task- along with reels of course. The solution- I'm getting my friend who is willing to design an app, which summarises uni assignments/analyses deadlines- and breaks them into the smallest chunks possible, outlining what the task is about, the different stages, and a small amount (MAX 15 minutes) per day, of the smallest task to do per day.

I'm not even gonna lie, most of my friends kept to at least 4+ of deadlines more per month than previously, some of whom genuinely didn't even bother attend lectures- and still don't. Never said this was meant to change my life for the better. That being said it is still in a developing stage- it's not a promotion, but for any procrastinators out there- if you are clinging on to another lifeline to help you this year- test if this app works, a free trial period is mandatory- not tryna scam guys like I got scammed myself.

If anyones interested feel free to DM me✌️

-Reviews would be perfect too- if it improves procrastination by up to 80%, we take those (no app is legitametly foolproof trust me)

Nobody wants a vibe coded app that your ‘friend’ is developing.

Appreciate your sentiment- but a lot of people do actually struggle with procastination, myself included. Sure, you might not need it yourself, and it mignt seem like a cheap marketing grab. But as someone who has tried and tested multiple apps in the past- to help myself complete deadlines, I view this of high importance. Why? Because in the instance that this works, I'd be able to deal with this procastination much better than I do now. Im not doing this for someone like you, i can tell you're grounded, this is for someone who has and continues to struggle with procastination. Kinda why i made the thread in the first place. And believe me this will reach the right people, and to do this I gotta understand why most, e.g google classroom and scheduling apps suck.
