Orbit brings your whole life onto one dashboard. Instead of hopping between ten apps to see what matters, Orbit overlays your calendar, reminders, health, weather, people, money, and more onto a single Today screen — then surfaces what actually needs you. ONE DASHBOARD, EVERY HORIZON Switch between Today, This Week, This Month, and This Year to see what's coming — an appointment weeks out, a bill due, a birthday — across every area at once. CAPTURE ANYTHING, INSTANTLY One box. Type or dictate, and Orbit's on-device AI files it as a task, note, idea, quote, or person. No folders, no friction. ASK ORBIT A private, on-device assistant that answers from your own data, plus a daily summary of your day. ORBIT NOTICED Insights that connect two parts of your life no single app sees — a birthday during a busy week, poor sleep before a demanding day, a bill due while you're traveling.
