I'm always super interested in these kind of tools. Unfortunately the demo movie isn't loading for me, not even when I directly browse to the source url.

Does this help? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xd3JJi8zSk4

I hate to say but the text there is impossible to read.

Very interesting. Is the UI written with mobile in mind, or do you only use it in desktop settings (like work-related productivity)?

Desktop only for now. I use the "Saved Messages" feature in Telegram to make notes on phone, and transfer them over later, and delete those messages to avoid build up.

From the beginning, it was never limited to work-related productivity. Examples of things that I've been regularly tracking:

  - Habits: Wake Up / Sleep times, Daily Routine items I want to build consistency on, like exercising and meditation.
  - Tracking TV Shows, Movies, Books, Articles.
  - Meal Tracking, although it does not include calorie counting. I also track my weight, and find that graph particularly useful.
  - Birthday / Anniversary Reminders, with multiple warning days to adjust for timezone difference.
  - Conversations and Meeting notes, so that I can quickly remind myself about previous discussion when I am about to talk to someone.
Fun fact: I ended up accidentally impressing the girl who became my fiance with my "good memory" because of this.

I also added custom things like "conversation reminders" since I'm an introvert and needed a bit of a nudge if I have not spoken to certain friends in X days.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Apologies: it is a desktop app, and so I recorded the demo on [HD resolution](https://github.com/kaustubh-karkare/glados/blob/master/src/d...) to make it look as close to my intended experience as possible.

I'm assuming you're on mobile, so later today, I'll try making a separate demo video specifically for this case.
