What is miniCycle?

A privacy-focused routine manager that handles repeating tasks differently than traditional to-do apps.

Routines, Not Just Tasks

Most to-do apps are centered on completing individual tasks. miniCycle is centered on completing and repeating an entire routine.

miniCycle organizes your tasks into routines. When you complete all your tasks, they automatically reset so you can tackle them again. Your progress is tracked by cycle count - how many times you've completed the routine.

It's perfect for daily routines, weekly goals, and recurring habits you want to build consistency with.

100% Private - All data stays on your device

Three Modes for Different Needs

Choose how your routine behaves when you complete tasks.

The Core Concept

You create routines, you complete cycles.

Complete ➔ Cycle ➔ Repeat

Auto Cycle

Tasks automatically reset when all are complete. Perfect for daily routines you repeat consistently.

Manual Cycle

Select "Complete Cycle" when you're ready to finish and reset the routine. Gives you time to review before starting fresh.

To-Do Mode

Completed tasks are moved to Cleared Tasks, where eligible non-recurring tasks can be restored for up to 90 days. Recurring tasks continue on their own schedule instead. Works like a traditional to-do list for one-time tasks.

Features

Everything you need to build and maintain consistent routines.

Recurring Tasks

Set tasks to automatically appear on a schedule - hourly, daily, weekly, biweekly, monthly, or yearly.

Due Dates & Reminders

Set deadlines and get browser notifications. Overdue tasks are highlighted so nothing slips through.

Multiple Routines

Create separate routines for different areas of life - work, home, fitness, personal projects.

Search, Filter & Sort

Find tasks instantly with inline search. Filter by status, priority, due date, or recurring. Sort alphabetically, by priority, or by due date.

Progress & Achievements

Track cycle counts, view statistics, and earn milestone badges and achievements as you build consistency.

Vocabulary Themes

Unlock themed vocabularies as you hit milestones - Habit Tracker, Fitness, Scholar, and more. Each theme changes labels, icons, and colors.

Drag & Drop Reordering

Rearrange tasks by dragging on desktop or long-pressing on mobile. Arrow buttons provide keyboard-accessible reordering.

Accessibility

Reduced motion, high contrast mode, adjustable font sizes, and full keyboard navigation. Built for everyone.

Backup & Restore

miniCycle keeps automatic daily backups on your device — restore any of the last 10 in a couple of taps, or save up to 50 named backups of your own. Export a file whenever you want a copy off-device.

Focus View

Hides distractions and highlights the next incomplete task. Great for working through routines one step at a time.

Dark Mode & Personalization

Toggle dark mode, customize colors, background patterns, and font sizes. Your preferences persist across sessions.

Export & Share

Download routines as .mcyc files. Back up your data or share templates with others. The .mcyc format is open and documented.

Undo & Redo

Made a mistake? Undo recent actions. Your history is preserved per routine.

Works Everywhere

Responsive design for phone, tablet, or desktop. Install as a PWA for offline use.
