Cadence is the recurring task tracker that doesn't nag. Water the plants. Change the sheets. Call your mum. Cadence keeps the rhythm of recurring life quietly on your Home Screen, so you can see what's due without a single push notification. Every household task, on a gentle loop. Set up a task once, choose how often it repeats, and Cadence takes it from there. When it's time, it shows up. When it's not, it stays out of the way. Count the next due date from the day you finish, or keep a fixed schedule for things like rent day. Your week, quietly organized. See today, this week, and later at a glance. Cadence groups tasks by when they actually matter, so you can scan the week ahead without scrolling through a wall of checkboxes. Did it yesterday? Mark it done on the day you actually did it. One-off jobs, right next door. Turn on the optional To do list for the things that happen only once: book the boiler service, return the library books, renew the passport. It sits in its own tab next to your recurring tasks, and stays out of sight until you switch it on. See it on your Home Screen. The widget is the whole point. One glance tells you what needs doing. Tap it to open Cadence, and tick things off with a single tap. No badge to clear, no inbox feeling, no opening yet another app just to remember what you were supposed to be doing. Make it yours. Forty colors, dozens of icons, one tap to pick. Give "water plants" a leaf. Give "rent day" red. Your widget ends up looking like you, not like a productivity app. See your rhythm. Cadence shows how often you get things done on time, with a lane for every task that marks each completion and each stretch it sat overdue. Open a task to see the current cycle as a dial, your streak, and its full history. Notice the patterns without obsessing over them. The gym tasks you always skip. The weekly ones you nail every Sunday. Stop worrying. Start doing. No push spam. No daily summary emails. No reminders piling up in Notification Center. Cadence shows you the right task at the right time, in the one place you already look, and otherwise stays silent. Your data, your cloud. No account required, and no Cadence server. Your tasks live on your iPhone. Want them on more than one iPhone? Turn on iCloud sync, and your tasks and to-dos are saved in your own iCloud storage, where Cadence can't see them. Sync stays off until you turn it on. Export anytime to back up, import anytime to move over. Cadence is for the stuff that comes back around. The gentle, unglamorous, every-few-days tasks that keep a life running. Set them up once, glance at the widget, carry on.
