About

TODO.md

Features
Read full description

TODO.md is a dopamine to-do list for ADHD brains - a wrapper for Markdown files to keep all tasks with notes you already have. Choose a folder of markdown files. An Obsidian vault works; so does any other notes folder. Each file with checkbox tasks becomes a list. Folder structure stays as it is on disk. Checking a task, dragging to reorder, and adding a line write back to that file. The files remain the source of truth. - Clickable home-screen widget that pages through your task list - A calendar mirror for tasks with a due date - Capture from Siri and get Reminders into the note you choose - Optional dictation for task and feedback text There is no account or import step. Files stay where you put them, including iCloud Drive. Optional feedback uses our support service without uploading your vault. By default, a file lists when its frontmatter includes the tag `todo`. You can change or turn off that filter in Settings.

ZenNotes Web Clipper

Save what you read in Safari into ZenNotes as clean, plain Markdown notes. Open the clipper on any page and it turns the article into a tidy note: the title, a link back to the page, the author and date when the page has them, and the text itself, without the menus, ads and clutter around it. Edit the note's name, pick a folder and tap Add to ZenNotes. The note is copied, ready to paste into a note in ZenNotes or anywhere else. Everything happens on your device. There is no account and no server in between. What you get: - Clip a whole page, or just the text you selected. - Highlighter: select the passages that matter and tap Highlight. Highlights are saved per page and go into your clip. - Reader view: read any page in a calm, distraction-free layout. - Templates: different note layouts for different sites, chosen automatically by address or page type, with variables and filters for titles, dates, authors and more. - Interpreter (optional): fill parts of a template with an AI model you choose, using your own API key. After installing, open ZenNotes Web Clipper once, then turn the extension on in Settings, Apps, Safari, Extensions (or from the extensions button in Safari's address bar). ZenNotes for iPhone and iPad is on the App Store. Learn more at https://zennotes.org. Open source (MIT): https://github.com/ZenNotes/web-clipper
