Hi!
I've noticed more people talking about Kanban boards lately — moving tasks through columns instead of scrolling one long list. Turns out you don't need a separate app for that.
Apple Reminders has had this built in the whole time, it's called Column View. This week I'll share three simple ways I use it in my own Apple productivity setup.

Quick Tip
If you share notes with a partner or family member, they get buried among everything else in Apple Notes.
Create a folder, turn on Make Into Smart Folder, and filter by Shared. Every note shared with anyone lands there automatically — no manual sorting.
It's the fastest way to keep shared life admin in one place without a separate app.

A Note from me
Someone asked me recently where I actually learn about Apple stuff — new features, workflows, the small things I end up writing about here. I had to think about it, and most of it turns out to be podcasts, not articles.
So I put together the seven shows I keep coming back to. The 7 Apple Podcasts I Keep Coming Back To
