  • “Paper is to write things down that we need to remember. Our brains are used to think.” - Albert Einstein

  • Problem

  • - Life is hectic. There is too much to do, too little time, and trying to remember every Thing is impossible.

  • Solution

  • - Twos is an app to quickly capture and organize any Thing you want to remember, so you can stop worrying about forgetting Things and start being present.

  • How I use Twos

  • Today

  • - Every day, Twos provides me with a new List, called “Today,” where I write down any Thing I want to remember: To-dos, reminders, memories, random thoughts (I use Twos as my journal), ...any Thing I don't want to forget.

  • My list for “Today — Sep 13”

  • - I start each day with a few Things I want to do, but as the day goes on, I'll jot down new Things I learn and any Thing else I want to remember.

  • - Side note: each piece of information in Twos is called a “Thing,” so it truly is “the best place to write Things down.”

  • To-dos

  • - For Things I need to do, I change them into To-dos. In the Menu, I can see all of my To-dos so I never forget any Thing I want to do.

  • My “To-dos” view

  • Lists

  • - To organize Things in groups, I create Lists (books, grocery lists, projects, goals, trips, etc.).

  • My “2021 Books” list. Some books are already completed.

  • - I create Lists for Things I can use in the future and to brainstorm new ideas and decisions. I bookmark Lists I am actively working on for quick access in my Menu.

  • My Menu and bookmarked Lists

  • Search

  • - When I need to remember some Thing (links, names, addresses, etc.), I simply use search.

  • Searching “memory”

  • - I can search any Thing in Twos to quickly find what I am looking for.

  • Select + Move

  • - At the end of the day, I can quickly select and move the Things I don't finish to tomorrow and move other Things to specific lists.

  • Selecting Things to Move to Tomorrow

  • Real-Time Sync

  • - Because Twos syncs between my phone and computer, I can quickly write some Thing down from anywhere to remember later.

  • My List for “Today — Sep 13” on desktop at www.twosapp.com

  • - Lastly, Twos has a few helpful tools to remember Things I'd otherwise forget.

  • - Stars: all of the Things you've marked with a star

  • - Your Week: all of the Things I wrote for a given week

  • - On this Day (my personal favorite): all the Things I wrote one week ago, one month ago, one year ago, two years ago, etc. (2020, 2019, 2018, 2017, ...)

  • My “On this Day — Mon Sep 13, 2021”

  • - There are many other features that make Twos the quickest, easiest, and most organized place to write Things down, e.g. pull-down to load Today, move, reorder, select, share, etc., which I will share more about soon.

  • Summary

  • - Twos is the quickest and most organized place to write any Thing you don't want to forget.

  • - By using Twos, you’ll have a history of your life to go back to and share with others forever.
