How to Complete an Item and Write a Reflection

Who this is for: Anyone who has accomplished a goal and wants to mark it done and capture the experience.

Florence, a retired principal, has finished her volunteering at the literacy center and is ready to mark it complete with a meaningful reflection.

Steps

1. Open the item you've accomplished.
2. Change the status to "Completed." Tap the status field and select Completed.
3. Watch the confetti animation. A full-screen celebration plays — this is the moment of acknowledgment.
4. Write your reflection (optional but recommended):
   • Text: Write freely about the experience.
   • Star rating: Tap 1–5 stars to rate the experience.
   • Completion date: Defaults to today; change if the completion happened on a different day.
   • Photos: Add photos from your device gallery.
5. Tap Save. All reflection fields are optional — if you want to skip, tap "Skip" or dismiss the prompt.
6. Find your item in the Completed tab. It appears with its reflection preview: star rating, completion date, and a text excerpt.

Expected Outcome

The item is in the Completed tab as a permanent memory. The confetti animation plays at 60fps. The reflection is saved and viewable (and editable) any time you open the completed item.

Notes

• You can edit your reflection at any time by opening the completed item and tapping the edit button on the reflection.
• The Completed tab becomes a personal journal of accomplishments over time — browsing past reflections is a rewarding experience in itself.
• If you accidentally marked an item complete, you can change its status back to "In Progress" or "To Do" from the item detail view.
