Is Obsidian Down?
Written By The Aftertone Team
Check https://obsidian.md for live status. If Obsidian is not listed as having an active incident, the issue may be on your end -- try restarting the app or checking your internet connection.
What to do right now
1. Open Google Calendar directly. Your events sync there regardless of whether Obsidian is working.
2. Write your three priorities for the day. Open Notes or grab a piece of paper. Three things that have to happen today. Obsidian going down does not change what matters.
3. Check Obsidian's status. Obsidian is a local-first app -- most issues are local rather than server-side. Try relaunching the app. Sync issues may relate to Obsidian Sync or your third-party sync service.
4. Start on your first priority. The real cost of a planning tool outage is not the 20 minutes it is down -- it is the hour you lose waiting for it instead of working.
If this keeps happening
Obsidian handles your notes and knowledge base. If you want a daily planning layer alongside it -- tasks, time blocking, and weekly reports -- Smart Capture makes adding Aftertone straightforward.
Obsidian is a local-first knowledge management tool. Aftertone is a daily planning and execution system. They solve different problems and work well alongside each other.
