Root is a personal space where ideas and everyday life take root. KEEP WHAT INSPIRES YOU Collect photos, text, and stickers on boards. Capture a moment or turn your own photos into stickers to make each board yours. GIVE YOUR IDEAS ROOM TO GROW Organize boards in folders and build a hierarchy for your projects. Keep everyday memories, creative inspiration, and work plans together without mixing them up. TURN A BOARD INTO A GOAL Manage a board as a goal, organize subgoals, set priorities and dates, and use reminders to stay connected to what matters. Keep ongoing, completed, and archived goals separate. MAKE SPACE FOR TODAY Quickly capture tasks, add times and reminders when needed, and view your day in the calendar. Connect a task to a board or goal to keep the bigger picture close. YOUR OWN PERSONAL SPACE Start without creating a Root account. Export and restore your workspace using backup files.
