The capture-first habit
The single habit that makes TickTad work: capture everything immediately, sort it later.
The rule
Section titled “The rule”The moment something crosses your mind — a task, a receipt, an idea, a school notice — put it in the inbox. Don’t stop to decide what it is.
Why it works
Section titled “Why it works”- Your brain stops using itself as storage.
- Nothing slips through the cracks.
- Sorting happens in one calm pass, not in the middle of life.
How to capture
Section titled “How to capture”- On the go: use the Share Extension or voice.
- At a desk: paste text.
- From paper: photograph it and run OCR.
The other half
Section titled “The other half”Capture is only half the habit. The weekly review is where you sort it all. Together, they keep you clear-headed all week.
