Plan a day that fits — and fix it when life changes. DayPace is a daily planner built on time blocking that learns how long your work really takes. Put your tasks on today's timeline, see before you start whether the day fits, and when something runs long, repair the plan in one tap. Most planners assume your estimates are right. DayPace measures. Start a task when you begin and finish it when you're done; your real pace appears next to your estimate, and your estimate is never overwritten. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Plan today and tomorrow on a clear timeline • Add a task in one line — "Deck review 45m at 2pm" becomes a scheduled block • Time every task from the app, your Lock Screen or Apple Watch • Replan in one tap when a task overruns: keep your finish time, finish later, or choose yourself • Build routines with repeating tasks and reusable day templates • See your calendar events on the same timeline • Review the day in the evening and carry unfinished work forward • Home Screen widgets, Live Activity, iCloud sync, export and import MADE FOR REAL DAYS For people who plan carefully and still run late — including many with ADHD. No streaks, no scores, no guilt. Just an honest picture of your day and a plan that adapts when it has to. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. Task and calendar titles never leave your device. Analytics are counts only. FREE AND PRO Free, always: unlimited tasks, today and tomorrow, timers with Live Activity, the evening review, your overall pace, calendar on the timeline, iCloud sync, one template, a widget and the Apple Watch app. DayPace Pro adds guided placement ("Make today fit"), Replan with preview and Undo, your pace by kind of work, calendar-aware placement, unlimited templates, full history and trend, and the complete widget set.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: IFocusTimer at none against DayPace's shown. IFocusTimer also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). DayPace's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 4 months). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
