Hobbies gives you a dedicated space for the personal projects you work on for enjoyment — anything from woodworking to photography, music, painting, gardening, coding side projects, or collecting. Your four most recently updated hobby projects appear on the Life Dashboard so they are always a tap away.
Under the hood, hobbies are projects tagged as the hobby type, so everything you can do with a project — tasks, notes, photos, linked people, linked activities — is available in a hobby project too.
What you can track
- 🎨 Name and description: give your hobby a name and describe what it is about
- ✅ Tasks: break the hobby into tasks — useful for projects with steps, like building something or learning a skill
- 📝 Notes: free-text notes for ideas, references, or progress updates
- 📸 Photos: attach photos to document your progress over time
- 👥 People: link people who are involved in the hobby with you
- 🏃 Activities: link activity records to the hobby — for example, a pottery class linked to a ceramics hobby
