Emery is the guilt-free daily planner. Every morning starts fresh. No red overdue badges. No broken streaks. No "you completed 47% of your tasks" making you feel like you failed. Open the app, see today, sort in five minutes, work. Miss a day? Miss a week? Come back and the app is still ready. Three empty buckets. No judgment. And it won't become another dead app on your phone. We use Emery every morning and answer every support email ourselves. It's been in active development for years – not built over a weekend and abandoned. The 3-Bucket System Every morning, sort your tasks into three groups: – Fires – will cause real problems if you skip them today – Growth – moves your career, business, or goals forward – Extras – helpful but not critical Fires first. Then protect time for Growth. Extras fill the gaps. The whole sort takes about 5 minutes. You start your day with clarity – not a 30-item list and zero direction. Time Blocking Drag and drop tasks onto your calendar to protect your time: – Block time for Fires so they get done – Reserve focused hours for Growth work – Fit Extras into the gaps Sort Your Meetings Too Sync your Google, Outlook or Apple calendar and apply the same three buckets to meetings. See which ones move things forward – and which ones just fill your calendar. Calendar Sync – Google Calendar, Outlook and Apple Calendar support – Connect multiple calendars in one view – Add private notes to meetings Notes and Projects – Capture notes and ideas anytime – Organize tasks and notes by project – Keep meeting context in one place Who It's For Emery is for people who own their schedule – managers, solopreneurs, freelancers, anyone who decides what to work on today. It's not a project management tool. It's not an AI that schedules your day. And it's not another app that punishes you when you stop using it. 5 minutes every morning. A clean page. Real progress by the end of the day. Sort your day. Start today. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
