Configura Cria Planner en 10 minutos
You don't have to migrate your whole life to get something out of a planner. Add one real thing, share one plan, and let the rest grow from there. Here's the shortest path to a setup you'll actually keep, with a timer running so nobody can accuse us of exaggerating.
Step 1: Add your first thing (1 minute)
Open the app and use the quick-add bar at the bottom. Type the way you'd say it out loud: "dentist Friday 10:00" or "buy milk tomorrow". Cria Planner turns it into the right kind of item with the date already set. That's the whole trick. Don't decide up front whether something is a task or an event. Just type it and let the alpaca sort it.
- Something with a time becomes an event on your calendar.
- Something to finish becomes a task you can tick off with great satisfaction.
- Something to remember becomes a note.
Step 2: Check My Day (30 seconds)
Tap the sun to open My Day. Everything happening today sits in one list: events, tasks due, dated notes. This is the screen most people live in. The rest of the app is for planning ahead, and My Day is for getting through today without a single "wait, what?"
Step 3: Make a plan (2 minutes)
A plan is a folder for one thing: a trip, a house move, a birthday, "the week". Create one, give it a colour, and drop related tasks, events and notes inside. Now they travel together and show up colour-coded on the shared calendar, so one glance tells you which bit of life you're looking at.
Step 4: Share it (2 minutes)
Open a plan's member list and invite someone by email. They join for free. Sharing never costs the people you invite, and from then on you both see the same tasks and events, with reminders reaching everyone in the plan, not just whoever typed them. This is the step that turns a personal to-do list into a household that's actually in sync.
Tip: start by sharing one low-stakes plan, like a grocery run or a weekend, before you move the big stuff over. It's the fastest way to feel what shared reminders are like. Spoiler: quite nice.
Step 5: Let Cria AI do the heavy lifting (2 minutes)
Tap the assistant and describe what you're planning: "a weekend camping trip for four" or "organise my week around two deadlines". Cria AI builds the whole thing, events, packing list, tasks, who does what, and keeps answering as things change ("what's left before Friday?"). It's the difference between a blank planner and one that's already started for you. (Cria AI is included from the Family tier up.)
Step 6: Make it yours (30 seconds)
Pick a theme colour in Settings and turn on the reminders you want. Two worth knowing: the morning digest sends a short summary of your day, and notes can lock behind your fingerprint or face for anything private. Then you're done. The planner fills in as life does, which is to say, quickly.
