About Nearer
Most to-do apps put the whole backlog in front of you, so deciding what to do becomes another task. Nearer replaces that wall of unfinished work with a single card. Add tasks, repeatable routines, or flashcards, then work through them one at a time. Complete a card and the next one is ready automatically, so you can keep moving without scanning or reprioritizing the entire list.
Routines can reset daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, manually, or on completion. Progress and list controls stay available when useful, but they do not crowd the focused view.
Nearer is for people who feel overwhelmed by conventional long lists and want a quieter way to start and continue. It deliberately is not a project-management dashboard or a bird's-eye view of every obligation. The list stays intact; the screen belongs to what matters now.
What Nearer does that nothing else does
Nearer keeps tasks, routines, and flashcards in sequence while showing only one card at a time, then automatically moves forward when you finish.
Who Nearer is for
People overwhelmed by conventional to-do lists who want to work through tasks, routines, or flashcards one card at a time.

Can I skip or edit the current card without marking it complete, and will it come back later?
General Utility LLCMaker
Yes, you can edit or skip the current card without marking it complete. Lists are presented in a carousel format, so you can always circle back. Routines stay visible in a completed state until the desired reset trigger occurs. Completed tasks are auto-archived upon refresh.

How do flashcards work in Nearer, and can I reveal an answer before marking one complete?
General Utility LLCMaker
Flashcards use spaced repetition based on your own feedback. You can reveal the answer as many times as you need to while it is active. Thanks for the question!
Felix Brandt
How does Nearer choose the next card, and can I change the order?
General Utility LLCMaker
Good question! There’s currently 4 ways you can order cards: manually, by priority, by due date, or by priority + due date which sorts the cards by due date and then by priority within that.
Tomas Keller
What limits does the free version have, and what extra features are included in the paid plan?
General Utility LLCMaker
Free accounts are limited to 2 lists and 20 cards per list. All other features are available on Free and Pro accounts. Thanks for the question!
Owen Fitzgerald
Can I set different reset schedules for individual routine cards, such as daily for one and weekly for another?
General Utility LLCMaker
At the moment, reset schedules are applied to lists only. We’re going to be rolling out a ‘Today’ list that pulls cards from all your lists that are due or reset today. We may expand that functionality to weekly and monthly lists later if the demand is there. Thanks for the question!
