# Daybreak

Daybreak is your on-demand morning briefing in Notaday. It gives you a quick,
focused overview of what matters today, what is coming up soon, and which
journals may need a fresh update.

Open Daybreak from the sidebar when you want a calm starting point for the day.
Nothing is generated automatically when the page opens. You will first see a
preview, then you can create your briefing whenever you are ready.

## What You Get

Your briefing can include:

- A short greeting and summary for the day.
- How much of today's work is already done.
- The planned focus time for open tasks.
- Overdue tasks that need attention.
- The most important things to handle today.
- Work coming up in the next few days.
- Journal entries that have not been updated recently, with a suggested next step.

## How To Use It

1. Open **Daybreak** from the sidebar.
2. Select **Create briefing**.
3. Read the summary and focus list.
4. Use **Snooze for 1 week**, **Snooze for 1 month**, or **Never** on a journal
   reminder if it is not useful right now.
5. Use **Refresh** if you want a newly generated briefing later in the day.

Daybreak uses the tasks, routines, and journals already in your workspace. The
better your due dates and journal notes are, the more useful the briefing will be.

## Journal Reminders

Daybreak only surfaces journals that still look relevant. A journal is more
likely to appear when it is pinned, favorited, connected to open tasks, has a
nearby due date, or has been active recently.

Journals are not tracked by Daybreak by default. Open a journal and turn on
**Track in Daybreak** when you want it to be considered for reminders.

You can control this per journal:

- Select **Snooze for 1 week** or **Snooze for 1 month** to pause a reminder.
- Select **Never** to remove that journal from Daybreak reminders.
- Open the journal and turn **Track in Daybreak** back on if you want it to
  appear again later.

## Pro Access

Daybreak is available with Notaday Pro. If your account does not have Pro access,
you will see an upgrade prompt instead of the briefing.

## Good To Know

Daybreak is meant to be short and practical. It will not replace your full task
list or journal, but it can help you decide where to start and which updates are
worth touching before they get stale.
