ReturnKit setup guide
One planner.
Wherever life happens.
ReturnKit is the same full planner across laptop, iPad, iPhone and Android. Start with the device in your hand. Add capture tools only if they make your day lighter.
Full planner on phoneLocal firstSync is optional
Set up the calm route first. The extras can wait.
Start here
You only need two things.
No long setup ritual. Your planner works in the browser before you install or connect anything else.
Keep it within reach
Pin the tab on a laptop, or add ReturnKit to your Home Screen on a phone or iPad. That is the whole essential setup.
Using Chrome, Safari, Perplexity or more than one browser? ReturnKit is local first, so each new browser begins as its own local home. Sign in and enable sync if you want the same workspace there. A browser being quiet does not mean you stopped using ReturnKit elsewhere.
Pick the screen in front of you
Setup that matches the device.
Each route lands in the same Life Planner and Creator Studio. The phone version is adapted for the smaller screen, not reduced.
Laptop · about 3 minutes
Give planning room.
Use the wider canvas for the whole week, Secretary drafts, Creator Studio and focused work.
- 1Open returnkit.life/app and sign in.
- 2Pin or bookmark the tab. Light Today opens first. Full and Rhythm stay one tap away.
- 3If useful, add Capture or Focus. They are companions, not requirements.
iPhone and iPad · about 5 minutes
Carry the full planner.
Install the full ReturnKit PWA from Safari so it opens like an app. On iPad you keep the wider canvas. On iPhone the navigation and cards reshape for touch.
- 1Open ReturnKit in Safari, tap Share, then Add to Home Screen.
- 2Open the installed app and sign in with the same email.
- 3Optional: in Capture, expand Send to ReturnKit Shortcut to add a Share Sheet action. Screenshots can extract text first.
Android · about 2 minutes
Install, then share into Capture.
Android installs the full ReturnKit PWA. Links and text shared from other apps can open directly in Capture for you to review.
- 1Open ReturnKit in Chrome, open the browser menu, then choose Install app or Add to Home screen.
- 2Open the installed app and sign in.
- 3From another app, tap Share and choose ReturnKit when you want something to land in Capture.
Optional doors
Add only what earns its place.
The planner is complete without these. Connect a door when it removes a repeated step from your real day.
Browser Capture
Save a page or selected text without opening the planner. The capture only key cannot read your workspace.
Add Capture →
Focus companion
Protect a timed block with optional site guardrails. It starts when you ask and stays separate from your planner data.
Add Focus →Email into Capture
Forward newsletters, forms or receipts from your account email. It can add a note, never read your planner.
Set up inside Capture →What happens after capture
Nothing silently becomes a task.
ReturnKit holds the thought, then leaves the decision with you. That boundary is deliberate.
1 · Something appearsA link, screenshot, school email or loose thought.
2 · Capture holds itIt waits in one inbox. Nothing is filed behind your back.
3 · You decideMake it a task, place it in a life area, save it or let it go.
Capture once. Decide when you have the capacity.
Before you go
Small questions, clear answers.
Is the phone app a smaller version of ReturnKit?
No. It is the full responsive planner, including Life Planner, Creator Studio and Capture. The layout adapts to a smaller screen, while the underlying workspace stays the same.
Do I have to install anything?
No. ReturnKit works in a modern browser. Installing the PWA simply keeps it within reach and gives it an app like window.
Why can a new browser look empty?
ReturnKit is local first. Each browser has its own local home. Sign in and use cloud sync if you want your workspace to follow you between Chrome, Safari, Perplexity, your phone and other devices.
Do Capture tools see my planner?
The browser Capture companion uses a capture only key. It can add an item to Capture but cannot read the planner. Email capture follows the same one way boundary.
Where is the feature tour?
Open ReturnKit and choose Menu → How it works. This page is only for device setup and optional capture doors.
Ready when you are
Start with today.
The rest can wait.
Open the planner in this browser now. Install it later if that would make returning easier.
