I'm building a life balance app after my calendar looked great and my life didn't. AMA

Hi all, I'm Edward, founder of Elegix. For a few years I was very productive at work and slowly lost everything else: sleep, the gym, friends, hobbies. None of my apps noticed. They all counted tasks, and by that measure I was doing great. So I'm building Elegix, a life balance tracker for iOS and Android. You link your goals, habits and tasks to 6 life areas (health, relationships, growth, leisure, career and money, meaning). The app shows one balance score and which area you're neglecting, with a 1-minute weekly check-in and a 10-minute monthly review. A few things people usually ask: The name: Elegix is Valencian for "choose". The whole idea is that balance isn't something you find, it's something you choose every week. Where it is: in development, waitlist open, no release date yet. Business model: free app, optional Premium later. Happy to talk about anything: building with a small team, the balance score (and how not to make it a meaningless number), burnout, building in public, or why most productivity apps make it worse. Waitlist if you're curious: elegix.net
