Adding and editing something on your day

Three ways to add a task, and every field in the Edit task sheet explained.

Three ways to add something

• The plus button at the top right of Today opens a quick-add bar that says Add something to the day.
• Tap an empty stretch of the timeline. Quick-add opens aimed at that slot, and the placeholder becomes something like Add something at 3:05 PM. It stays open afterwards so you can put in several in a row.
• Ask Junie. Open the Junie tab and say it in a sentence. She can put in several at once.

If you add something without giving it a time, it lands in the Anytime today list above the timeline, and the Edit task sheet opens straight away so you can give it a time if you want one.

The Edit task sheet

Tap any block on your timeline to open it.

Title

What the thing is.

When

A Give it a time switch, a start, an end, and the length worked out for you. Leave the switch off and the task sits in Anytime today instead of on the rail.

Energy

A slider from 0 to 5 drops. New tasks start at 1. Set 0 for things that cost you nothing and 4 or 5 for the ones you dread.

Category

Routine, Work, Kids, Meal, Errand, Me time, Fitness, Admin, or Event. Category sets the color, and it decides what a Plot Twist is allowed to move.

Protected

Protected (survives a Plot Twist). A protected task is never pushed off your day by a twist.

Junie checks in on this

Only shown for tasks that have a time and are not Work. See Junie's check-ins.

At the bottom of the sheet are Move to Another Day and Delete task. Deleting asks first.
