How It Works

Simple, privacy-first integration workflow

1

Type or Record Your Reminder

Create a reminder using voice recording or text input in Aurely as usual.

2

Integration Badges Appear

When you start typing, integration badges (πŸ“… Calendar, βœ… Todoist, πŸ”” Reminders) appear above the text inputβ€”only if you have the integration enabled in Settings.

3

Tap Badges to Select

Tap the badges for services you want to sync with. Selected badges turn colored (blue, purple, or orange). Unselected badges remain outlined.

4

Create and Sync

Create the reminder as usual. After confirmation (when creation toast is confirmed), the reminder syncs to selected services automatically. Use Quick Actions in the menu bar to manage reminders instantlyβ€”snooze, edit time, or modify sync status.

πŸ”’ Privacy Control
No badges = no sync: If you don't select any badges, the reminder stays only in Aurely. Nothing syncs unless you explicitly tap a badge. Complete control over your data.

Quick Actions in Menu Bar

Manage reminders instantly without leaving your current app

⚑ Instant Access

Click the Aurely icon in your menu bar to access Quick Actions. View upcoming reminders, snooze, edit times, and manage sync statusβ€”all without switching apps.

⏰

Snooze & Edit Time

Change reminder times directly from the menu bar. Time updates automatically sync to all connected services (Calendar, Todoist, Apple Reminders).

πŸ”„

Edit Sync Status

Modify integration badges from the Edit Reminder dialog. Smart unsyncing keeps imported items in external services, removes Aurely-created items.

πŸ“‹

View Upcoming

See all your upcoming reminders at a glance. Integration badges show which services each reminder is synced with.
