GUIDE
Today's agenda
See what to recall today and the schedule for the next seven days in one place, including how to read overdue days and pull work forward when you want to.
Today's summary
One band under the heading sums up the day, so its size is clear the moment you open it, and the records start right below.
| Shown | What it means |
|---|---|
| Records and minutes | How many records are due today, and their estimated total, added up from the time you recorded on each one. |
| Today's goal | A bar showing today's share against the time you set aside for a day. It holds both what you have already done and what is still ahead. |
| 7-day load | The estimated time for today and the six days after it, one small bar per day. The dotted line is your daily capacity, and a day that goes over it changes colour. Projected steps not yet reached sit on top in a lighter shade. Pressing it opens the calendar in Plan, with the detailed load chart. |
Both the daily time you aim for and the maximum number of records per day are yours to set. When a day would run past the target, the plan itself spreads across nearby days.
What you finish today stays in the goal bar as time already spent, and the figures beside the bar add “Done today N records”. Those minutes count against the day's target, and the day continues within the share already allocated to it.
Due now, and the next seven days
Due now holds what is due today, together with anything overdue that has been placed onto today. That is the day's share, most overdue first.
Next 7 days shows what is coming. Seeing a heavy day ahead lets you set a break in advance and reshape the plan.
When work has fallen behind
Coming back after a while, a one-line summary of the backlog sits above the list: how many records there are, and how late the oldest one is. After a week away it opens by telling you how long it has been.
Overdue records are redistributed from today across up to 14 days, kept inside your daily target, and the summary says which date the distribution reaches.
To make the pile smaller, open Adjust in bulk. The overdue records are listed with checkboxes; tick them and choose “Defer selected” or “Pause selected”. One pass handles up to 200 records.
| Action | What happens |
|---|---|
| Defer | Out of the plan until the date you pick. The repetition count does not advance, so it resumes on the same step. |
| Pause | Out of the plan until you resume it. The memory record is kept, so resuming picks up where it stopped. |
Paused records stay in the library. The paused count at the top of the library filters down to them so you can resume from there.
How the redistribution worksOnce the day's target is spent
Finish the day's share and the list becomes “Today's share is done”. Any overdue records still waiting move to later days, each with its own share of the target.
On a day with room to spare, press “Do a bit more”. One target's worth is brought forward from the days ahead and listed as “Pulled forward”. Each press brings one more, so how far you go stays your call.
A day that had nothing due to begin with carries the same offer under the name “Pull work forward”. Only the wording differs; what happens is the same.
How the redistribution worksMarks on a card
A card has three lines: the source (followed by › and the parent record when there is one), the record's name, and then its estimate, which round it is and the days since the last one, with any marks continuing on that line. The row of dots at the right of the first line is the record's stage. Lateness is shown in the accent colour. In the next seven days list, the date leads the third line.
| Mark | What it means |
|---|---|
| N days since last | The gap since the previous round, up to this one. It grows as the record climbs the ladder. |
| Row of dots (stage) | How far up the ladder of intervals the record has come. There are eight steps, and the dots are filled up to the current one. Projected cards do not show it. |
| N days late | How far past its intended date this is. Being placed on a reachable day does not erase how late it was. |
| Deferred to DATE | You deferred this one. It stays out of the plan until that date. |
| Over capacity | This day is past your daily target, but the repetition could not move any further, so it stays here. |
| Focus item / Child item | Shown at the start of the first line. A part split out of a record, coming back on its own interval. |
The streak
The count on its own line just under the heading is days in a row you recalled at least one thing. It counts days, not volume, so a single record on a busy day is enough to count that day.
Before you have recalled anything that day, the note beside it reads “One today makes N”: the count today would reach with a single record. Finish one and it changes to “Today counted”.
While a break is running the note reads “On a break; the run is held”. Break days pause the streak count and connect the days on either side as one run.
Breaks and the streakStarting a round
Recall on a card opens that record (tapping anywhere on the card does the same), and choosing a rating there, then pressing “Record this rating”, is the whole round.
On a day with nothing due, the agenda shows open space. The gap itself is what a held memory looks like. If you have room, “Pull work forward” lets you bring part of the upcoming plan into today.
