Jurnie is a goal achievement platform with an AI mentor that takes action. Set life goals (called Journeys), break them into tasks, build daily habits, plan your day on a visual calendar, and let AI handle the execution — creating tasks, managing your schedule, and tracking your progress. Jurnie doesn't just suggest what to do. It does it for you.
The task board is easier to shape around your workflow, the month calendar handles busy days more cleanly, and parent tasks now keep up with subtask progress automatically.
Added
Custom Kanban columns — add, rename, reorder, and color-code your board columns. Mark the columns that count as complete so moving a task there updates its completion state automatically.
Column cleanup with task moves — when deleting a Kanban column, choose where its tasks should go next instead of losing your board organization.
Smarter month calendar events — Google Calendar events now render with clearer cards, calendar colors, tooltips, and proper multi-day all-day spans across the month grid.
Changed
Parent tasks now stay in sync with subtasks. Complete every direct subtask and the parent is completed too; reopen a subtask and the parent reopens with the right board status.
Kanban status chips are more intentional. They appear when they add useful context, use each column's accent color, and stay out of the way on compact mobile task rows.
Signed-in visitors now land directly in the app from the root URL, while signed-out visitors see the public landing page.
Fixed
Google Calendar data refreshes in the background even when cached events are shown first, so the calendar feels fast without getting stuck on stale data.
Due date menus now open in better positions from task rows and calendar cards, reducing clipped or awkward popovers.
The root page now checks your signed-in state before rendering, which makes signed-in page loads and auth redirects more reliable.
This update adds a new board view for task workflows, makes your AI mentor more useful with uploaded files, and removes several small pieces of friction from daily planning.
Added
Kanban board view — switch from List or Calendar to Board on desktop and drag tasks through workflow columns grouped by Journey. Board swimlanes can be collapsed and reordered when you want less visual noise.
AI chat file uploads — attach images, PDFs, text files, Markdown, or CSVs to a mentor conversation. Paste screenshots, drag files into chat, or use the attachment button.
Click-to-rename task titles — open a task and click the title to rename it inline. Press Enter to save, Escape to cancel, or click away when you are done.
Inline auth on the landing page — the main call to action now opens a focused sign-in panel directly on the page instead of forcing a separate modal flow.
Changed
The AI mentor now asks for confirmation only before irreversible actions, such as deleting a task or deleting a scheduled action. Routine updates run immediately and then show the result.
Jurnie's public landing page now lives at jurnie.co, while the authenticated app is also available at /app.
The mobile landing menu now opens as a smoother expanding panel with spring motion.
Install-as-app behavior is more consistent across browsers and home screens, helping devices recognize Jurnie after install.
Fixed
Task deletion from the details menu now uses a reliable confirmation dialog instead of a menu item that could close before the confirmation appeared.
Push notifications now preserve the context needed when opened, so reminders can take you back to the relevant Jurnie experience.
Your AI mentor can now take action on a schedule, your conversations persist across sessions, and a new chat icon keeps you in the loop when the mentor has something to say.
Added
Scheduled actions — ask your AI mentor to do something later (e.g. “remind me tomorrow to review my goals”). The mentor queues the action and runs it at the right time using background scheduling. You stay focused now; the mentor follows up when it matters.
Chat persistence — your AI conversation history now saves across sessions. Close the browser, come back later, and pick up where you left off without losing context.
Chat notification icon in header — a chat icon in the navigation bar shows an unread badge when your AI mentor has new messages. Tap it to jump straight into the conversation without scrolling.
Floating chat input — a compact pill sits at the bottom of your screen. Tap it, type your message, and it opens the full AI chat with your message ready to send. No extra taps.
Fixed
The unread badge on the chat icon now correctly restores if marking messages as read fails, so you never miss a mentor response.
Google Calendar events now respect your timezone when created through Jurnie. Previously, events could end up at the wrong time if your timezone differed from UTC.
Mobile keyboard no longer covers the chat input on iOS and Android.
Your AI Mentor Can Take Action
Previously, the AI mentor could only chat. This release gave it 14 tools so it could actually do things on your behalf — creating tasks, updating your schedule, logging habits, and more.
Added
AI tool-calling with action UI — ask your mentor to create tasks, update due dates, log habits, set daily intentions, check consistency stats, or manage Google Calendar events. Jurnie shows progress as actions run, confirms the outcome, and asks for approval before irreversible actions like deleting a task or scheduled reminder.
Full Google Calendar editing — create, edit, move between calendars, and delete events directly from the day, week, or month view. Click any event to open an inline edit popover with a calendar selector. Subscribed and shared calendars are automatically detected as read-only so you won't accidentally try to edit events you can't change.
Right-click context menus — right-click any task on the calendar to quickly reschedule (“tomorrow,” “next week”), mark it complete, or edit it. Works across month, week, and day views — and on Google events too (open in Google Calendar, edit, or delete).
Click-to-create on calendar — click or click-and-drag on any time slot in the day or week view to create a new task pre-filled with the selected time and duration.
Changed
Signup flow simplified — analytics showed most users dropping off at the email confirmation step, so we removed it. You can now start using Jurnie immediately after signing up.
“Visions” renamed to “Journeys” across the entire app to better reflect what they represent — ongoing life goals, not static destinations.
Timezone handling standardized — dates now consistently reflect your local time, not the server's. Your browser timezone is synced to your profile on every sign-in.
Settings reorganized — Schedule and Integrations tabs merged into a single Calendar tab.
Fixed
Google Calendar sync is now more reliable. If your connection to Google becomes permanently invalid, Jurnie now automatically disconnects and prompts you to reconnect instead of showing cryptic errors.
Overdue task cards now show a consistent amber border across all calendar views.
Calendar Day Planner
You could see tasks on a monthly calendar, but there was no way to plan your actual day hour by hour. Now there is.
Added
Day and week planner views — a full time grid showing your tasks and Google Calendar events side by side. Drag unscheduled tasks from the tray onto the grid to time-block them. Drag to move, resize to adjust duration. Your working hours are configurable in Settings.
Journey colors — choose from a curated 10-color palette for each Journey. Calendar task blocks display in your chosen color, making it easy to tell which goal a task belongs to at a glance. Unassigned Journeys get auto-assigned colors deterministically.
Hover-to-complete — hover over any task on the calendar to reveal a completion checkbox. No need to open the task first. The checkbox hides during drag to prevent accidental toggles.
Animated view selector with smooth transitions between Day, Week, and Month.
Fixed
Scroll position preserved when switching between Day, Week, and Month views.
Habits, Partners & Google Calendar
Goals aren't just about checking off tasks — they're about building daily habits and having people who keep you accountable. This update adds both, plus deep Google Calendar integration.
Added
Habit tracking — create daily habits linked to your Journeys. Choose which days of the week each habit applies to. Track streaks and see your consistency on a visual grid that shows your progress over time. Streak milestones show toast celebrations.
Accountability partners — invite friends by email to follow your Journeys. Partners can see your tasks, streaks, and recent activity in a read-only view. Send each other cheers to celebrate progress. You can revoke access at any time from Settings.
Google Calendar sync — connect your Google account to see calendar events alongside your tasks in the month view. Events display with their actual Google Calendar colors. Toggle individual calendars on/off from a popover in the calendar header.
Install as app — Jurnie prompts mobile users to add it to the home screen as an installable web app with push notifications.
Responsive task creation — on mobile, adding a new task opens a bottom drawer instead of an inline expander for a more natural touch experience.
AI Images, Focus & Notifications
Your Journeys got a visual upgrade, and now Jurnie actively helps you stay focused throughout the day.
Added
AI-generated journey covers — generate a unique cover image for any Journey using AI. The image appears instantly so you never wait. Each image gets a watermarked Jurnie logo.
Today's Focus — a daily intention card that highlights the tasks you plan to complete today. Pick your focus tasks in the morning, and they stay synced across all your devices — no more different lists on your phone and laptop.
Push notifications — opt in to daily reminders that arrive at the time you choose (timezone-aware). Jurnie nudges you to check in and keep your streak alive, with overdue tasks included in the reminder.
Share journey cards — share a visual card of your Journey and its progress with friends.
Overdue tasks and tasks due today are automatically added to Today's Focus each morning so nothing slips through the cracks.
Smooth animations added across the app for polished transitions.
Animations & Streaks
Small touches that make the app feel alive.
Added
Animated sunrise illustration on empty states — a warm welcome when you're just getting started.
Daily streak counter with smooth counting animation and motivational messages at milestones (7 days, 30 days, etc.).
Quality of Life
Added
Option to show or hide completed tasks — keep your task list clean or review what you've accomplished.
Changed
UI polish across task lists, Journey cards, and settings.
