The Today screen: a greeting with the day twenty percent done, cards for tasks, habits, focus time and chores due again, quick capture, a running timer, the day plan and the habits with their streaks.
Every card here can be reordered or switched off.

What you get

Four counters, no maths

Tasks planned, habits kept, focus time logged, and how many chores have come round again. You know where you stand before your coffee lands.

Capture before it escapes

One box at the top. Type "gym tomorrow 7am" and it works out what you meant, so you never have to fill in a form to write down a thought.

Cards you choose

Your plan, the chores that are due again, the last seven days, pinned modules, recent notes. Customise drops the ones you never read.

It follows the library

Switch off six modules and their cards leave with them. The screen counts what you use and stays quiet about the rest.

Your Tuesday is not my Tuesday, which is why none of this is fixed.

The modules under this

Every module, one at a time

Asked about Today

What does Today cover in Cadence?

The screen that answers "right, what am I meant to be doing". It draws on the Planner, Habits, Household Chores, Notes modules, each of which has a page of its own.

Is Today on the iPhone as well as the Mac?

Yes. Cadence is one app on both, laid out again for a screen you hold in one hand, and iCloud sync for $14.99, paid once, keeps the two holding the same data.

Does it need an account?

No. There is no account, no server and no sign-up. Everything is kept on the device you typed it into, and exports to one JSON file from Settings whenever you like.

Thirty modules, and not one of them wants your email address
