Hour Blocks: Day Planner 4+

“Hour blocks presents you the timeline of your next 24 hours” (source: app’s AS description)

No, it doesn’t. In fact, I can only view my schedule from 6am to 11pm. Apparently I don’t exist in any other time of the day.

Bold of you to assume I don’t need to wake up at 4am and commute to work which starts at 6am. I mean yeah, I wake up at 2pm at best, but can you at least include the extra hours from 12am to 6am? Some people may be partying or, perhaps, have to work night shifts.

To top that, I’ve never seen a normal person organise their timetable strictly by hours. It makes little to no sense to limit users from creating a task at say, 4:30pm or 5:15pm. It never works like that. Yes, I know, only includes hourly tasks for the sake of clean design, but you’re making an organiser, not an art project. You can’t just include sub-tasks and call it a day.

Perhaps you as a developer propagate some brand new method of day-planning where only hourly tasks and unicorns exist. I mean hell, the app’s name is “Hour blocks”. But for god’s sake, if you’re calling your app that, at least include all 24 blocks available. Is this some sort of trial version of my life where a quarter of it is non-existent?

Overall the app is ok, love the design and the UI, it’s very intuitive, Hour Blocks are a lot more easy to navigate than Google Calendar. Doesn’t overwhelm you with a ton of useless information, but also fails to provide something necessary at times.

Но пока что сырое, пожалуйста сделайте, чтобы часто используемые картинки для оформления блоков были в быстром доступе, также просмотр Sub Block’ов нужно сделать жестом, например, двойной клик по блоку, который хочешь развернуть, буду очень рад если увижу отклик на мой отзыв, вижу что приложением занимаются, а оно мне понравилось

I start doing something at about 1 AM but there is no a hour block for 1 AM! And no blocks for 2, 3, 4 and 5 AM either. And no way to add them. It is funny that app is not really tested that the author forgot to include 1/4 of 24 hour blocks or options to add or remove them. The app is pretty much useless anyway without easy and quick way to add and remove blocks. It supposed to help me focus, right? Then let me remove some hour blocks if I know I will be doing something few hours. Let me add multiple block if I need them. Let me name each block, what if I want to do something from 3:30 to 6:30? I want to create or rename a single block for that. Implement this basic functionality and then maybe the app could be useful. It is not practical to organize a day by hour exactly. Hour blocks could be a starting template but nothing more.
