FluidGetting started
Two steps. Then Fluid opens on Today.
Install it and sign in with Apple. First-time setup helps you choose your Mac extras; you can change them later in Settings.
Download and install
Download Fluid for Mac. Open the .dmg and drag Fluid into Applications. If you already have Fluid, choose Replace. Open Fluid from Applications; the first time, macOS may ask you to confirm.
Sign in with Apple
Choose Continue with Apple to create an account or sign in. It asks for your name and email only, and Hide My Email works. Your session stays in the Keychain, so you sign in once. Invited accounts can also use Sign in with email; public email sign-up is not available.
Sign in with the same Apple ID on your iPad or iPhone and your tasks, notes, events and settings are already there.
That's it
Fluid opens on Today. The pages are Today · Tasks · Jot · Calendar; press 1–4 to switch. Settings are behind the round sun button at the top-right of Today.
