Dayward: Calendar Day Planner

Time blocking around meetings

Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.

Lots of meetings, no time for real work? Dayward plans your tasks into the gaps, automatically. Dayward reads your real calendar, finds the free hours between your meetings, and turns your tasks into time blocks you can see and move. Tap Confirm day and your plan lands in your calendar, synced both ways. Training day or conference? Mark it busy from when until when, and nothing is planned in those hours. WHY DAYWARD IS DIFFERENT A task list is not a plan. Dayward schedules your work around the commitments you already have, then learns from how your days actually go. • Two-way Apple Calendar sync. Confirm your day and blocks become real calendar events. Move, rename or delete one in Calendar and Dayward follows. A new event can become a task. • Learns your pace. Dayward credits focus time back to each task and compares it against your estimate, then sizes future blocks on what the work really takes — after five finished tasks, not before. • Plans in your best hours. Demanding work is placed in the hours your own past focus sessions ran to completion. • The Big 3. Pick at most three priorities that would make today a win. The cap is the point — Dayward won't let you add a fourth. • Your hours, your days. Set working hours per weekday, a best time per task, and hours per project. Dayward tells you what won't fit instead of quietly dropping it. NEW IN 1.4 • Keep a list in sync: Apple Reminders, Microsoft To Do or Google Tasks. Tick a task off in Dayward and it is ticked off there too. • Training days count as busy: an all-day event can block the hours you choose, and things that clash sit side by side. • Confirm day, then two-way calendar sync in both directions. • Shape your day: tap a free slot to fill it, drag a block to move it, swipe to push it to tomorrow or later today. • A quicker Quick Add: a title, a project, a due time and any length, such as 2h30. • Plan with AI: type a braindump and review the tasks and steps before anything is added. • Time away: plan trips, flights and days off that keep those days free and pause your streaks and reminders. FOCUS A Pomodoro-style focus timer with an optional app shield to quiet distractions while you work, plus a Home Screen widget and a Lock Screen and Dynamic Island Live Activity. PRIVACY FIRST No account, no login, no Dayward server. Everything is stored on your device, and every core feature works offline. Optional sync runs through your own private iCloud. No ads, no tracking, no third-party analytics of any kind. ABOUT AI (OPTIONAL) Dayward's planning engine is plain on-device arithmetic, not AI. The optional AI features run on an API key you supply yourself — Google Gemini or a compatible endpoint of your choice. We don't resell or proxy model access, and AI is not a paid feature. DAYWARD PRO Free includes unlimited tasks, three projects, the day planner, calendar sync, the focus timer, the widget and your first weekly review. Pro adds a weekly review every Friday, the full analytics history, unlimited projects, the Eisenhower matrix, renewal tracking and export. Dayward Pro Monthly: 2.99 USD per month, after a 7-day free trial. Dayward Pro Yearly: 19.99 USD per year, after a 7-day free trial. Dayward Pro Lifetime: 49.99 USD, a one-time purchase that does not renew. Payment will be charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours prior to the end of the current period, at the price of the plan you chose. You can manage your subscription and turn off auto-renewal in your Apple Account settings after purchase. Any unused portion of a free trial is forfeited when you purchase a subscription.

  • This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.

Dayward plans your tasks into the free time between your meetings. • A shorter setup: connect your calendar, set your hours, add today's tasks, and your day is planned. Set up on a day off, and it plans your next working day. • Run setup again now keeps your own hours, routine and focus settings, and changes only what you change. • With notifications off, focus sessions still start the Lock Screen timer and the focus shield. • Today's timeline shows what already happened as soon as you open the app.
