Your iPhone Home Screen should show what you need today. In next week's newsletter issue I show how I use widgets and Widget Stacks for Apple Notes and Reminders. My Inbox, my Your Day list and my recurring tasks sit on the Home Screen, so I don't dig through folders. It's free: formacusers.com

I see so many people building their own to-do apps. But if you’re already in the Apple ecosystem, you have Reminders. - Smart Lists - tags - recurring tasks - Siri - location-based reminders - kanban (column) view And All syncing across all your devices.

I use the Reminders quick-entry feature all the time. Capture a task, set a date, and save it without leaving what you're doing. Everything with single Action Button.

My weekly workflow using Apple’s built-in apps: 1. Capture ideas in Notes & Reminders. 2. Plan my week every Sunday. 3. Pick 1–3 priorities each morning. 4. Use Calendar to manage time. 5. Keep notes and actions connected. 6. Review at the end of the week. Three apps, one simple system that works.

I use a custom Today view using Smart List in Apple Reminders. It brings my priorities and regular tasks into one view, with separate sections for each. Simple way to keep my daily focus clear.

Robin | For Mac Users @robinkai.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

My Apple Reminders setup is built around a few simple lists: Inbox → Capture anything quickly Week Priority → What matters most Week Tasks → Everything else for the week Month Tasks → Things coming up Simple enough to maintain every day.

Robin | For Mac Users @robinkai.bsky.social · 27/09/2026

I like having separate inboxes in Apple Notes for different areas: - General thoughts - Writing ideas - Social media ideas I keep them pinned at the top of my Notes folder. It gives me structure without having to organize every thought immediately.

There's always more to do than time to do it. So I need a system that helps me decide what matters this week and remember the small stuff. My next newsletter walks through mine: a simple weekly routine with Apple Reminders, Notes, and Calendar. You can join here, it's free 👉 www.formacusers.com

Great to see that Apple Reminders widgets finally display list sections in iOS 27! A small change, but a really useful.

"I want to start a business, but first I need to find my niche" Nonsense.   You won't find your niche by sitting in a chair with a piece of paper and a pen.   You will discover it in action: - Explore - Experiment - Make mistakes - Learn The greatest value is the things you learn about yourself.

I work full time, have a 2+1 family and travel several times a year. Still, I find time to grow a side hustle. How I do it? - built systems to automate the process - use lunch time for writing - give up Netflix to grow my audience - really enjoy the journey.
