A quick tour

Here is the whole app in two minutes. Open Rymi and follow along.

Down the left are your sections and projects:

  • Inbox holds what you have captured but not yet sorted.
  • Today holds what you have committed to.
  • Backlog holds what is deferred but still alive.
  • Archive holds what is done or dropped.
  • Projects group related tasks by theme.

A small coloured dot next to a section means something there is urgent: red for overdue or due today, orange for due tomorrow. See urgency indicators.

The main area shows the selected section. Rows are compact and quiet by design. Click a row to select it; press to open or edit it. Most actions have a single-key shortcut when a row is selected, like T for Today, B for Backlog, and A for archive. The full set is in keyboard shortcuts.

Press ⌘N anywhere to capture. You can type a plain task, or let smart parsing pick up a #project, a date, or a recurrence as you write. On the Mac you can also capture from any other app with Global Quick Capture (⌃⌥C).

Press ⇧⌘P, or click the sun icon, to open the morning check-in. It puts your Backlog and due-soon tasks on one side and Today on the other, so you can pull in what matters and close. That is the ritual, made concrete.

Press ⌘K to search across every section by title, description, or project.

That is the shape of it. From here, pick whatever you want to go deeper on from the sidebar.
