Hour Blocks: Day Planner

Effortlessly take control

View

Lots of apps can help you track to-dos, but Hour Blocks takes a more detailed approach: it helps you think through how best to spend each precious hour of your day.

What we love: The magic happens on the Schedule tab, which shows you, at a glance, where the gaps in your day are. Here you’ll intentionally fill in each empty block – not only with urgent projects from your to-do list but also equally crucial activities such as catching up with a friend or listening to music. For each hour block, you can add granular subtasks to keep yourself on track.

Prioritise your upcoming projects on the To Do List tab, then find open time slots to sort them into on the Schedule tab.

Quick tip: Not sure how to fill every empty hour? After tapping the plus sign for a time block, check out the Suggestions section. The initial recommendations may seem basic (eat lunch at noon), but over time they’ll get more personal to you (e.g., Brainstorm every Monday at 2pm).

Meet the creator: James Saeed was a university student when he coded Hour Blocks to simplify his life as a student and break away from the conventional calendar.
