Tana just released iOS widgets & they've completely solved the capture problem you didn't know you had. No more fumbling through apps trying to remember where things go. No more voice notes sitting in limbo waiting to be processed.

In this video I walk you through my complete widget setup that's sped up capture on mobile & eliminated 90% of my inbox processing time:

- The 4 core capture widgets every knowledge worker needs on their home screen (Tasks, Ideas, Notes & Agendas)

- Workflow widgets that combine voice + AI to turn messy brain dumps into structured notes in seconds

- All the features including Siri integration, shortcuts & clever ways to organise your home screen without the clutter

This isn't just about faster capture. It's about building a system where your ideas go straight to the right place, already categorised, ready to use. No processing required. If you've ever felt like your best thinking gets lost in the chaos of daily life, this one's for you.
