Everything Mindwtr does.
A complete system whose depth stays out of the way until you reach for it. Here’s the full picture, grouped by what you’re trying to do. Each area links into the docs for the how-to.
GTD, end to end
Capture, clarify, organize, reflect, engage. Mindwtr keeps the steps connected instead of letting them become separate chores. New to GTD? Start here
-
Capture
Quick add from anywhere — global hotkey, tray, share sheet, or voice.
-
Clarify
Guided inbox processing with the two-minute rule.
-
Organize
Projects, sections, contexts, and status lists.
-
Reflect
Daily and weekly review workflows with reminders.
-
Engage
Context-filtered next actions, so you always know what’s next.
A view for every part of the system
Each view is built for the GTD method, not bolted on.
-
Focus
A time-based agenda and your next actions, together in one screen.
-
Projects
Multi-step outcomes with sections, areas, and manual task ordering.
-
Calendar
Plan dated work and subscribe to external calendars and ICS feeds.
-
Board
Kanban-style drag and drop across Inbox, Next, Waiting, and Someday.
-
Contexts & tags
Tag tasks by where you do them, like @home or @work/meetings; nested contexts match their parent.
-
Review
Daily and weekly review wizards keep the system trustworthy.
Depth when you reach for it
Power that stays out of the way until you need it.
-
Global search
Operators such as status:, context:, and due:<=7d across everything.

Audio capture
Speak a task; it’s transcribed and filed into your inbox automatically.

-
Reusable lists
Duplicate tasks or reset checklists for routines you run again and again.
-
Attachments & notes
Files, links, and Markdown notes with preview on any task.
-
Fluid recurrence
The next date is calculated after you finish, not on a fixed schedule.
