Tasks

The Tasks tab is where you define your routine. Add the habits you want to keep, give each one a color, and Kyro brings them back on Today every day. You only ever set a habit up once. It’s the second tab along the bottom, marked with a checklist icon and titled All Tasks.

If you haven’t added anything yet, you’ll see “No Tasks” with a prompt to add the tasks that make up your daily routine.

The All Tasks list with color-dotted tasks and an Archived section. — All Tasks: your routine, with archived tasks kept below.

Adding a task

Tap the plus button in the top-right corner to open the task editor. A new task needs only a name to save — everything else is optional and can be changed later (except its type; more on that below).

The New Task editor with the Counter toggle and the color swatches. — The task editor: name, notes, start date, counter, and a color.

Name

The name is the only required field — the Add button stays disabled until you type one. It’s what you’ll see on Today and in your history.

Notes

An optional free-text field for any detail you want to keep with the task — a reminder of what “done” means, a target you’re working toward, anything at all.

Start at

The first day the task is active. It defaults to today, but you can set it in the past (so it appears on those earlier days too) or in the future (so it doesn’t show up until then).

Counter

Leave Counter off for a simple done-or-not-done habit. Turn it on to track a number each day instead — pages read, push-ups, glasses of water. With Counter on, a Target stepper appears where you set the daily goal, anywhere from 1 to 9999; the day counts as complete once you reach it. See counter tasks on Today for how you log the number each day.

A task’s type is fixed once it’s created. You choose simple or counter when you add the task, and it can’t be switched afterward — the toggle is shown but disabled when editing. If you need the other type, create a new task.

Colour

Give the task a color so your day is easy to scan. Pick one of the ten preset swatches — blue (the default), teal, green, yellow, orange, red, pink, purple, indigo, or gray — or tap Custom to choose any color you like. The color shows on the task’s card on Today, its dot here on the Tasks list, and throughout its statistics.

Editing and reordering

Edit a task by swiping left on it and tapping Edit (or opening it from the list). You can change everything except its type. If you move a task’s start date later, any completions from before the new start are cleared.
Reorder your tasks with the Sort button in the top-right (it appears once you have more than one task). Drag tasks into the order you want, then tap Done. This same order is used on Today.

Archiving vs. deleting

Kyro separates retiring a habit from erasing it, so you never lose history by accident.

Archive (soft delete)

Swipe left on an active task and tap Archive. After you confirm, the task drops off your routine and moves to an Archived section at the bottom of the list, but all of its past history is kept. Archived tasks are dimmed to read as inactive.

To bring one back, swipe left on it in the Archived section and tap Restore — it returns to your active routine from its original start date.

Delete (permanent)

To remove an archived task and its history for good, swipe left on it in the Archived section and tap Delete. This is permanent and can’t be undone, so Kyro asks you to confirm first.

Archived tasks still count toward the free limit. On the free plan you can keep up to five tasks, and archiving doesn’t free up a slot — active and archived tasks are counted together. Kyro Pro removes the limit entirely. You’ll see the paywall if you try to add a task beyond the free limit.
