Open the menu again → Go to first unread. Check that its day is dated today and continue reading.

If you read without marking it

Open the corresponding days and mark assignments individually if you read out of order.

If you completed everything before a particular day:

  1. Select that day in the calendar.
  2. Open the three-dot menu → Mark previous days as read.
  3. Check which earlier days will be marked before confirming.
  4. Review the marks and find the first genuinely unread assignment.

This command changes progress. Use it for completed reading, not just to remove a date backlog.

When to restart

Restart clears marks for the current run and is for reading the entire plan again. Use schedule adjustment to keep completed work and change only dates.

See repeating and deleting plans for details.
