ZenUI also includes two features — What’s Next and Do
It Later — designed to free users from the actively having to manage the
multitude of information they are confronted with daily and enable them to be
more productive. What’s Next puts the information currently most important and
useful to the user — such as upcoming
appointments, new messages and missed calls from VIP contacts, weather at the
next destination, and more — front and center on the lock screen, the home
screen and in the notification drawer.

Do It Later frees the user to focus on the task at
hand without forgetting about other important things to do later. If a user is
in the middle of writing an email and receives a phone call, a simple button
tap automatically creates a reminder to call that person back. Users can also
save interesting items, like articles, YouTube videos, or any web page, to read
later. Each reminder and saved item is collected in the separate Do It Later
app and includes a shortcut to perform the related action, such as call a
contact or view a webpage.
