Mindful Assistant user guide
Everything you need to set up Mindful Assistant, use each feature properly, and fix the problems people run into most often.
Getting started
Mindful Assistant is in active development. This guide describes the features available in the current beta.
Create a profile, set your typical working hours, and pick a default session length. The app suggests 50 minutes for deep work and 25 for administrative tasks.
Running a focus session
Start a session by naming the intention — one short sentence about what this block is for. During the session, tapping "capture" logs a distracting thought without leaving the timer. Captured thoughts appear in your review list at the end.
Evening reflection
At the end of your day the app asks two questions: what moved forward, and what got in the way. Answers take under a minute and build a record you can scan weekly.
