Plan your day. Then see how long it actually took. Most task apps only record whether you finished something. Timlin measures the time you actually spent and puts it next to what you planned. ■ Planned vs. actual Start a timer on any task. Timlin logs the real duration and shows it against your estimate. After a few days, patterns appear — the 30-minute task that always takes 50. ■ A vertical timeline for the day Drop tasks onto the timeline and drag to adjust start and end times. You can see the density of your day at a glance, and notice when it's overloaded. ■ Brain dump Write everything down first. Decide order and timing later. ■ Focus timer Tap a task to start. The remaining time stays visible, and the measured time becomes your record. ■ Built for plans that change Long-press to move tasks around when the day shifts. Timlin doesn't assume you'll follow the plan exactly. ■ Pricing Timlin requires a Timlin Pro subscription. A 3-day free trial is included — cancel during the trial and you won't be charged. Timlin Pro includes: - Daily timeline planning - Time tracking and logs - Brain dump - Focus timer - Morning carry-over - AI planning and task breakdown - Google Calendar sync - Automatic rescheduling - Themes and colors Monthly / Yearly / Lifetime options available. ■ Made by one person Built by an indie developer in Japan, originally for personal use.

1年前の僕は、副業にチャレンジしてみたいのに仕事に家事にやることが多すぎて時間が足りない、という悩みを抱えていました。そんな時に出会ったのがタイムボクシング。 ざっくり言えば仕事、娯楽、家事など1日のToDoを全て洗い出し、それをカレンダーに落とこむだけのシンプルなテクニックなので、最初は予定に縛られて自由がなくなりそうで嫌だな、と思っていたのですが、この後なにしようか、と迷ってる時間が無くなったことで驚くほど集中でき、実践してから1週間で生産性が上がったことを実感できました。 実際、私は本業をしながらタイムボクシングで仕事と家事を効率化し、余った時間の副業でこのアプリ作っています。 もしあなたが「余裕がない!」「時間が欲しい!」と感じているであればこのアプリをインストールしてみてください。必ずお役に立てるはずです。 (追伸) 自由時間を増やすコツはキツキツに予定を詰めすぎないことです。詰めすぎると時間に追われる感覚になり疲れてしまうので、重要度が低いタスクをしなくてもよくなる工夫をすることです!このアプリの今週のToDoという機能でやるべきことの優先順位付けが簡単にできるのでぜひ使ってみてください!
