Zana is a task planner built around your week. Each week is a run: plan it, work through it, and see how you did. PLAN YOUR WEEK • Add a task in one line. "Pay rent fri 9am !important" sets the date, time and priority for you. • Organise tasks by class and type, give them priorities and due dates, and move them across your board from Created to In progress to Completed. • Recurring tasks move into your next run on their own. • See every day's tasks on the Schedule calendar. • Deleted something by mistake? Tap Undo. NOTES THAT DO MORE • Headings, lists, checklists, code, cards and links. • Subtask cards show your progress, and ticked items drop to the bottom. • Amounts add themselves up. List your costs in a card and see the total, or use formulas like SUM, AVG and ROUND. • Attach PDFs, Word files and photos, and record voice memos. • Look back at earlier versions of your notes and restore one. • Export to PDF, Word, Markdown or plain text. WORK TOGETHER • Share a task and edit its notes together, live. • Swipe to see who wrote each part. • Share a link to any task, even a private one. • Add mutuals and see how everyone is doing this run. EXPLORE • Find ready-made templates and add one to your run in a tap. • See the goals people are chasing, and find people to connect with. GOALS • Set long-term goals, log your progress, and celebrate when you get there. ONNA, YOUR AI ASSISTANT • Ask Onna to plan your week, break a big task into steps, tidy up your notes or set a goal. Nothing changes until you confirm. • Attach a document and Onna will read it. STAY MOTIVATED • Earn points and climb the ranks. • Unlock companions as you go. • Keep your run streak alive. • Insights show how your month, your classes and your goals are going.

PastDue tracks the recurring tasks that keep your life running smoothly — and nudges you when they fall behind. Unlike calendar reminders, PastDue works like a dashboard. It shows how long it's been since you last did something and whether you're on track, due soon, or overdue. Think "oil change due in 500 miles" — not another calendar alert. TRACK WHAT MATTERS Create tasks for anything on a recurring cycle — every 2 weeks, every 3 months, whatever fits. Mark them done and the cycle resets automatically. • Change bedsheets — every 2 weeks • Replace toothbrush head — every 3 months • Rotate mattress — every 6 months • Change HVAC filters — every 6 months • Oil change — every 6 months SEE YOUR STATUS AT A GLANCE Color-coded indicators show what's on track, what's due soon, and what's overdue. Sort by status, priority, due date, or category. SMART NOTIFICATIONS Escalating reminders that get more urgent the longer a task goes unfinished — on the due date, 1 day overdue, 3 days, and 7 days. FLEXIBLE CONTROLS Skip, snooze, or pause any task. Add notes and set priority levels. PastDue adapts to your schedule, not the other way around. GET STARTED FAST Browse suggested tasks for common home, health, auto, and personal maintenance — add them with a single tap. BUILT FOR PRIVACY All data stays on your device. No account required. No tracking.
