Focus a panel header, then use the arrow keys to move the panel.

Drag tabs to reorder them. Middle-click a tab to close it; right-click for Close, Close others, and Close all.

The iPhone app uses tabs and a command sheet instead of a sidebar and keyboard.

Tabs — Time, Notes, Tasks, Habits, Goals, Measures, AI Chat, and Settings. Hide or reorder sections in Settings → Panels.
Floating navigation pill — opens the command sheet.
Command sheet — create a note, task, goal, measure, or space; jump to a section or space; complete tasks that are due; run Sync now; search across content; change appearance and theme color.
Add button — creates an item in the section you are viewing.
Search — searches notes, tasks, goals, measures, habits, and chats.
Sync badge — shows the state of the current vault and opens sync details.

The iPhone app includes an Apple Watch companion for quick logging, timer control, habit completion, and a today list. The watch mirrors the phone and queues changes back to it. Watch-specific documentation is not part of this first release.

This skeleton covers setup, tasks, habits, sync, and platform differences. The next guides will cover goals, measures, notes, time, activity, and AI chat. In the meantime, empty states and inline hints inside the app describe the screen you are on.
