Mind Your Now vs Prep the day

Mind Your Now is the task app for your work and your household. It puts what matters today up front and holds everything else until it's time. FOUR ZONES, ONE QUESTION Every task sits in one of four zones: Critical Now, Opportunity Now, Over the Horizon and Parking Lot. One question decides what goes in Critical Now: would I stay late to finish this? Keep Critical Now to five or fewer and the day stays doable. START DATES, NOT A WALL OF DUE DATES Tasks show up on the day you plan to start them, so today's list stays short and nothing gets lost. FINISH IT AND SEE IT Check off a task and a red pen stroke draws through it. Changed your mind? Undo. ONE APP FOR THE HOUSEHOLD Share grocery lists and chores with your household, and see who added what. Habits and focus timers live here too. Connect Google Calendar or Microsoft Outlook. WORKS OFFLINE, ON ALL YOUR DEVICES Your tasks, habits, chores, grocery lists and timers are stored on your device and work offline. They sync between your devices when you're online. Kaia, sync, calendar connections and sign-in need a connection. Export an encrypted backup any time. KAIA, IF YOU WANT HER Kaia is an optional AI planning assistant. She can plan your day with you, remember your routines and preferences, and talk by voice on paid plans. When she tidies your list on her own, she signs each change and leaves an Undo. The four zones and the Going Home Test come from Michael E. Linenberger's Master Your Now method.

Prep the Day is a morning ritual for getting your day in order. Every morning, open the app and type out everything you need to do today — fast, messy, stream of consciousness. Don't think about order or priority. Just get it out of your head. Then the on-device AI takes over. It reads your dump, pulls out the real tasks, drops the routine "noise," and hands back a clean, prioritized list for the day. One brain dump in, one focused task list out — every morning. ON-DEVICE & PRIVATE • All AI runs on your device using Apple Intelligence. Your text never leaves your iPhone or iPad. • No account, no sign-in, no servers, no tracking. • Works without an internet connection. WHY IT WORKS • A cluttered head makes for a scattered day. Writing it down clears it. • The AI does the sorting so you don't have to organize before you've even started. • Five minutes in the morning saves hours of "what was I supposed to do today?" FEATURES • Brain dump input — type everything on your mind • On-device AI task extraction, powered by Apple Intelligence • Noise filtering — trivial, routine items are dropped • Priority sorting — the list comes back ordered • Edit freely — add, rename, complete, and delete tasks • Session history — every morning's prep is saved on-device • English and Japanese Requires a device that supports Apple Intelligence, with Apple Intelligence turned on. Prep the day. Then go live it.
