I Built a Minimalist Yes/No Task List for Chrome - Can You Roast It?

Hi everyone!

A couple of weeks ago I shared my first Chrome extension here - YNO, a minimalist to-do list where every task is just a Yes or No. I've been fixing bugs since then, but now I need fresh eyes.

I'd love honest feedback - what works, what doesn't, what's missing. Don't hold back.

Quick Context

I have ADHD, and I built this mostly for myself. The core idea: you add a task, and the only question is - did you do it? Yes or No.

What It Looks Like

Key Features

  • Yes/No system - mark tasks done or not, that's it
  • Focus timer - up to 2 hours per session
  • Reminders - up to 3 per task, for today only
  • Daily tasks, events & routines
  • Tags & Calendar
  • Visual deadline tracker
  • Schedule planner & workload visualization
  • Task archive - completed tasks are saved, nothing gets lost
  • Dark theme + System theme
  • 100% offline & private - local storage only, no accounts, no tracking
  • 11 languages supported

What I'd Love Your Feedback On

Here are some specific things I'm wondering about, but feel free to comment on anything:

First Impression

  • Is the interface intuitive when you first open it?
  • Does anything feel confusing or unclear?

Design & UX

  • How do the colors feel? Too much, too little, just right?
  • Is the dark theme comfortable?
  • Anything that looks off or out of place?

Features

  • Is there something you expected to find but didn't?
  • Is there something that feels unnecessary or gets in the way?
  • Does the Yes/No concept make sense to you, or does it feel limiting?

Overall

  • Would you actually use this day to day?
  • If not - what would need to change?

What I Already Know Needs Work

  • There are a few inconsistencies in the interface that I’m still working on
  • When you first launch the app after installation, it’s not entirely clear where to start, and there aren’t clear explanations for each feature. Some users might find this helpful
  • Localization into some languages still looks a bit rough in places. I thought one language would be enough for now, but my desire to add a few more languages-at least for those countries where it’s actively used-proved stronger, and I wanted users to feel comfortable using the extension in their own language, even though it’s not easy for me

A Small Ask

Even if you don't install it - feedback on the screenshots alone is valuable. And if you do try it out, even 2 minutes of poking around would help me a lot.

Thank you for your time 🤍


This is a solo project. I'm not a company, just one person trying to build something useful.

This looks really clean and cool! Great work!

I recommend adding a video demo in this post for those who want to see it first before using it. Other than that, great job :D
