Snailer is a calm, flexible place for the tasks, notes, habits, errands, and ideas that make up your life. Capture something in seconds, organize it when you’re ready, and return without having to remember where you left off. From today’s shopping list to a project that lasts for months, Snailer keeps the details close and the big picture clear. A SIMPLE BOARD FOR REAL LIFE Organize projects, lists, and to-dos in a smooth, minimal collection board. Set priorities, drag to reorder, group items by area of life, and keep stray thoughts from getting lost. One glance shows you where everything stands. NOTES IN YOUR WORDS Write naturally—addresses, links, details, or messy brain dumps. When you want a cleaner board, Title Generation can turn a long note into a short, actionable title that’s easy to scan. AGENDA: FOCUS ON NOW Pin the to-dos that matter most, while repeating tasks and reminders surface automatically. Agenda gives you a focused view of what needs attention now—not another overflowing inbox. A Lock Screen widget keeps the count visible. HABITS WITHOUT THE SETUP GRIND Create routines for workouts, vitamins, plant watering, weekly reviews, trash night, or anything else you want to repeat. Set the cadence once, then let Snailer bring each task back at the right time. AI WHEN IT’S USEFUL Ask for a trip plan, shopping list, workout routine, project outline, or one-time reminder. Snailer turns useful suggestions into actions you can review, organize, and keep on your board—instead of losing them in a chat history. YOUR POCKET LIFE PLANNER Use Snailer for quick errands, long-term projects, recurring habits, and ideas you don’t want to forget. Capture quickly, see the overview, and pick up where you left off. Conversation can be input. Lasting structure is the output. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
