Increase in daily task creations by 29% via widget

Tapasya sessions rose 31% post widget launch, from 480K to 630K/month, with 110K via direct Tapasya mode and 40K via Planner.

THE SPARK

Context

LearnOS is a custom Android launcher built by Physics Wallah to help students minimize distractions and focus deeply. When a student unlocks their phone, their home screen transforms into the LearnOS interface — replacing default apps with focused tools like Tapasya Mode (distraction blocker), goal-setting cards, motivational quotes, and a large Tapasya entry widget.

But once the Planner launched, we saw two gaps:

Students had no visibility into

their day’s tasks from the home

screen

Students had no visibility into their

day’s tasks from the home screen

Task creation and Tapasya entry

were disconnected, with no

unified entry point.

Objective

Connect Tapasya Mode to real, scheduled tasks

Let users view, plan, and start their day from the home screen

Reduce friction and increase planning behavior

The redesign aimed to turn the widget from a static Tapasya trigger into a flexible planning + focus hub.

HOW THE USER JOURNEY CHANGED

Students needed clarity before commitment — a way to quickly check, plan, and enter focus mode based on what their day looked like.

Visibility drives intent: students plan more when tasks are right in front of them
Shortcuts = habits: planning became frictionless once it was on the home screen
Structure beats motivation: adding tasks directly
