I personally paid for the 5-year subscription because it works well for my needs :)
On top of the discount they give you for trying to leave I ended up only paying $3.21 USD/month, but will probably continue using it as long as it is under $10 USD
If you would like for me to make tutorials or showcases on how I use it please let me know!
For the most part though, you can just check out my [[#Use Cases]]
## Benefits
The goal with Akiflow is to stay in flow
For someone with [[ADHD]], this is facilitated through having a meaningful plan and reminders.
## Use Cases
### Task management
[[Task management]]
- Creation, just use command bar and add the relevant details
- Alt/option + space
- Folders -> Label -> Section
- Align Akiflow labels with meaningful toggl areas
- [[#Task groups]]
#### Combinations
Task management system alongside akiflow
someday/maybe in akiflow is for things that are already part of projects that are being worked on, and should be reviewed on a weekly basis
Things that aren't there should be kept in Obsidian for a more "archived" feel
If you don't need to do it for a while, keep it in Obsidian under correct area, and then use the tasks there
this is what i could use [[My Tasks#Inbox]] for so the things in akiflow are still relevant
### Time management
[[Time Management]]
- Customizable reminders
- [[#Time slots]]
- Can help you just move things to the next period if you don't finish
- 5-minute reminder gives you a notice to wrap up or take a break
- Large-scale organization
### Workflows
[[My akiflow workflow]]
- Go through today's task list at the beginning and at the end of the day
- Just move through each item and use shortcuts to plan or edit it
#### Snooze
- Just to remind you, doesn't necessarily mean you have to (planned to do)
- Useful for postponing the assignment of when to do something
#### Morning
- Can use ritual workflow
- Fill time slots
- Fill empty spots
- Select up to 3 highlights, essential to do
