First of all, congratulations on shipping out so many ideas. The mere fact that you shipped it out and somebody is using it is inspiring.
I have many ideas that have never seen the light of day (One such dead project which is used by 7 people in the world is called the BetterToday.app)
The problem with makers like us is that it is easier for us to start building than actually figuring out whether the app that we are building is worth building or not. In the process, we discount our time and effort and lose the "Opportunity cost". This, in my opinion, is a real and tangible loss that should always be considered before starting any serious endeavor.
I really like your new idea of bots to assist with various tasks. The state of AI is such that you should be able to automate many tasks that needed Mechanical Turks in the past.
The fact that you already have a potential user is the best reason why you must focus on this idea and wow that user. The e-commerce market is also huge so there is great potential for you there.
For how to not get overwhelmed with tasks @marc has already shared some great ideas.
My three tips for that would be
* Make a list of tasks (Todos)
* Decide when and for how long you plan to work on each of those tasks (Time Boxing)
* At the scheduled time, work in chunks of 25 minutes followed by a short break (Pomodoro)
* Do not ignore your physical, mental, and social health in the process. They are of equal importance, if not more important than any idea or product you build.
Best of luck with your app. I would love to be of any help whenever you need it.
