Today & Plan

Today is a deliberate shortlist — only what you actually choose to do today, never an automatic dump of everything due. Plan is the calm picker that helps you fill it in a few taps. Together they keep the day honest.

Today is a choice, not a dump

Today (also called My Day) shows only the tasks you explicitly add to it. Nothing lands there on its own — not even a task due today — so the list always reflects an intention, not an inbox. A done / total count in the header tells you how the day is going at a glance.

Add a task to today
Today: a deliberate shortlist with a done/total count. The Plan button fills it.

Adding & removing

Pull a task into Today from its detail sheet (Add to Today), by typing today or tonight in any add bar, or with the Planpicker below. Remove it just as easily — taking something off Today doesn’t delete the task or touch its due date, it just steps it out of today’s focus.

Add to Today
From the task’s detail sheet, in one tap.
“today” / “tonight”
Typed in an add bar, sets the date and adds to Today.
Carry over
Bring yesterday’s unfinished Today items into today.
Remove from Today
Steps a task out of today without deleting it.

Carry over what you didn't finish

Days run long. Anything you added to Today but didn’t finish can carry overinto the new day in one move — so unfinished work follows you forward instead of quietly disappearing. You start each morning with yesterday’s loose ends already in front of you, then trim from there.

Plan: fill Today in a few taps

Press p (or the Plan button in the Today header) to open the picker. Plan looks across all your projects and surfaces the candidates worth your attention, grouped so the most pressing sit at the top. Each row has a + — one tap adds it to Today and the row steps aside.

Further out, but on this week’s horizon.
Assigned to you
Tasks handed to you on shared projects.
Recurring picks

The long-tail of undated tasks, in case you want to pull one in.
