Mobile guide

Mindwtr mobile is optimized for capture, quick decisions, and checking Focus away from your desk.

Best uses on mobile

  • Capture a task before it leaves your head
  • Check Focus during the day
  • Review waiting items while away from the desktop
  • Add notes or attachments to an existing task
  • Run a lightweight review when you have a quiet moment

Capture quickly

Use Inbox for anything unfinished or unclear. Do not over-organize while capturing. If you know the project, context, tag, or due date, quick syntax works the same way as desktop.

SyntaxUse
@homeAdd a context
#travelAdd a tag
+TripAssign a project
/due:tomorrowAdd a due date
/nextMark as next action

Work from Focus

Focus keeps the mobile app useful without forcing you through every list. Start there when you want to know what matters today.

Sync expectations

Mobile sync depends on the backend you choose and the operating system's background behavior. If a change does not appear immediately on another device, open Mindwtr on both devices and run a manual sync.

Before restore

Export a backup before restoring, importing, or switching sync backends. Restore operations intentionally replace local data.

Notifications and widgets

Supported mobile builds can show reminders and widget surfaces. If reminders do not fire, check system notification permission, battery restrictions, and the task's date/time settings.

Mindwtr is free, open source, and local-first.
