  description

  Most productivity tools fail because you have to remember to open them. CardTab flips that, your habits, tasks, reminders, and goals are passively in front of you every time you open a tab, dozens of times a day. The repetition is the whole point.
  
  Free to install. No account required. Your cards are saved locally in your browser.

  Most productivity tools fail because you have to remember to open them. CardTab flips that — your habits, tasks, reminders, and goals are passively in front of you every time you open a tab, dozens of times a day. The repetition is the whole point.
  
  CardTab replaces Chrome's blank new tab page with a dashboard you build from cards: task lists, habit trackers, notes, a whiteboard, countdowns, bookmarks, reminders, and a clock. Drag, resize, snap to grid, swap backgrounds.

  WHY PEOPLE INSTALL CARDTAB
  ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
  
  • Sticky notes pile up and todo apps sit unopened. CardTab puts your day where you'll already be looking — the new tab you open dozens of times.
  
  • Habit tracking only works if you see the tracker. Daily lists reset automatically and live in front of you.
  
  • Other new tab dashboards paywall the good features, ask for an account, or stream your data home. CardTab is free, account-free, and runs entirely in your browser.
  
  • You don't need another app. You need fewer. CardTab lives where you already are.
  
  ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
  PRIVACY
  ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
  
  CardTab requires zero permissions. No account, no cloud sync, no analytics, no telemetry. Your cards and settings are stored in your browser's local storage and never leave your device.
