Day Rail – Menu Bar Tasks

Day Rail is a to-do list for one day at a time. It lives in your menu bar as a row of small bars: one per task, green when it's done, with a count of what's left. You can see how your day is going without opening anything.

Click the bars to open your list. Type to add a task, press Return, keep typing. Press Space to check one off.

WORK THAT CARRIES ITSELF OVER Anything you don't finish today moves to the top of tomorrow on its own. No prompt, no "reschedule" dialog. A small badge shows how many days a task has been waiting, so the ones you keep avoiding are easy to spot.

PLAN TOMORROW TONIGHT Switch to Tomorrow to line up the next day before you close the laptop. Push a task to tomorrow with ⌘→, or drag it onto the Tomorrow pill.

BUILT FOR THE KEYBOARD • ⌥Space from any app opens the list with the add field ready (you can change the shortcut) • ↑ ↓ to move, Space to complete, Return to edit, ⌘N to add • ⌥↑ ⌥↓ to reorder, or drag • ⌘→ ⌘← to move between Today and Tomorrow • ⌘⌫ to delete, then Undo from the footer or ⌘Z Opening Day Rail doesn't take focus from the app you're working in.

SMALL TOUCHES • The first launch comes with five practice tasks, one per feature. Do them, or delete them. • Write "Dentist 14:00" and the time shows as a hint on the right • A soft chime and a small burst when you check something off (both optional) • Light and dark appearance, color themes, high contrast, and Reduce Motion (yours or the system's) • Full VoiceOver support, and text that meets accessibility contrast in every theme

PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account, no sync, no analytics, no network access. Your tasks are stored in one small file on your Mac and never leave it. If that file ever can't be read or saved, Day Rail tells you, keeps a backup, and offers a way out. Nothing fails quietly.

WHAT IT DOESN'T DO No projects, tags, priorities, due dates, reminders or stats. Day Rail is for today, and it stays out of your way the rest of the time.
