Plan your day on a visual timeline, with your calendar alongside. Start from a ready-made routine, pick your cue, and check off its steps right from your Home Screen.
For those of us who need structure, routines, and flexibility in planning. Certain activities are best started with a cue. Try beginning on cue instead of fixed clock time. Time block for overall structure, then act on cue to get things done.
CUE-ANCHORED ROUTINES
You figured out a few things about yourself: the ten minutes of journaling to start your day right, the two-minute shutdown ritual that helps you transition out of work mode, the night routine that gets you to bed on time and prepared for the next day.
Let your cues guide you back on track. Instead of fixed times, anchor activities and routines to approximate time blocks plus something that already happens in your daily life, e.g., when you wake up, when you walk through the front door, when you close your laptop. These are all possibilities for anchors that provide structure without having to adhere to fixed clock times.
Why do routines matter? Your routine is a solution to a problem you've already solved. Now if you could just get it done on automatic, that'd make life easier. The morning routine that starts your day right, the afterwork routine that transitions you to home mode or a different role, the evening routine that gets you prepared for the next day.
The distance between planning and done is a cue: something that tells your brain the routine starts now, and gets you on your way to completing it. KeepCue provides 60+ cue ideas to get you started.
VISUAL TIMELINE WITH YOUR CALENDAR
See your work and personal life at a glance, alongside your existing calendar events. Your schedule and free time in one view: find the time you didn't know you had, fix an overlap you didn't intent, or swap an activity just for this week.
KeepCue can show any calendar your Apple Calendar app can access, including iCloud, Google, Outlook, Holidays, Birthdays, and subscribed calendars. KeepCue only reads your calendar, and it stays on your device.
