Quadsheet

Four boxes.
You name them.

A project tracker that works like the paper quad grid it replaces. One sheet, four boxes you label yourself, one thing marked next in each, and a fresh sheet each morning if you want one.

A Quadsheet with four labelled boxes, one task marked next in each, and a bench of parked projects

Name the boxes

A client, the house, the kids, a side project. Whatever your week is actually divided into. No imposed categories, no urgent versus important.

Mark one thing next

Each box has at most one task marked next. Marking another clears the last one. Four boxes, four next things, and that is the plan.

Start fresh each morning

Cross things off all day. The next morning the sheet asks whether to put them away. Say yes and they go to history, by day, where you can always look them up. Open tasks stay right where they are.

One box at a time on your phone

Swipe between the four boxes, or stack them in one scroll. Tap the dot on any task to make it next. Projects that are not on the sheet wait on the bench with their tasks intact.

Sign in with Apple, Google or an email link. No password, ever. It syncs between your phone, your tablet and the web.

Free is the whole habit. Plus is what paper cannot do.

The sheet, the boxes, next, the bench, the morning reset and history are free for good. Plus adds the things a paper grid never could.

Not another Eisenhower matrix

The matrix sorts your life into urgent and important. You already know what is urgent. What you need is to remember which page you wrote it on.
