Most to-do lists show you every unfinished thing at once, then expect you to feel motivated. Nearer shields you from the chaos and gives you only what you need right now: one card. Finish it, mark it done, and the next card appears without another decision.

Why Nearer feels different
The app is built around a few opinionated details: one visible card, automatic movement, routines that reset on your terms, and controls that stay out of the way until they help.
Focused view
Nearer keeps the whole list in the flow, but gives the screen to one card at a time. You see what matters now without losing the thread of what comes next.
Automatic progression
Mark the card done and the flow keeps going. The next card is ready without making you stop, scan, reprioritize, or rebuild your momentum.
Custom resets
Daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, manual, or on-completion resets let repeatable work come back when it should, without turning every morning into setup time.
Customizable UI
Nearer stays quiet by default, but list-level controls let you add the cues you want, like a progress bar, without crowding every card.
No overwhelming list. No bird's-eye view of everything you haven't done yet. Just the next card. And over time, that single constraint compounds into habits that hold, exams passed, projects finally finished.
Use the same calm card flow for tasks, routines, and flashcards.
For long to-do lists
Add every task, then let Nearer surface them one card at a time. Finish a card and it gets out of the way automatically, so the screen stays focused on what remains.
For repeatable days
Set daily, weekly, or custom resets. Check off each habit as you go, then Nearer refreshes the cards when the cycle starts again.
For studying without drifting
Flip a card, test recall, and keep moving. The same focused flow works for exam prep, languages, or anything you want to remember.
Three steps. No onboarding call required.
A daily routine to lock in, a project to finish, an exam to pass. Give it a name and pick the type.

Each card holds exactly one thing. That constraint is intentional. It's what makes Nearer work.

support@nearer.ioNearer is a card-based to-do app for tasks, routines, and flashcards. Instead of showing every unfinished item at once, it gives you one card to complete, check off, or review before the next one appears.
Most to-do lists make you keep choosing where to start. Nearer removes that decision by showing one clear next action. It keeps the rest of the list out of view until you finish the card in front of you.
Seeing one task at a time lowers the noise around the work. You do not have to scan a long list, compare priorities, or feel behind before you begin. You only have to deal with the next card.
