Work Todo turns your week into an hour-by-hour grid — because a to-do list hides the one thing that matters: time. Most task apps show you an endless list. Work Todo shows you your actual week: seven days, your working hours, one glance. Free slots are visible. Overloaded days are obvious. Planning becomes honest. PLAN ON A TIME GRID • Tap any hour to add a task — name, priority, reminder, done • Color-coded priorities: Critical, High, Medium, Low • Repeat tasks daily or weekly • Double-tap to mark done, long-press for quick actions • Show only your working hours, hide weekends — your grid, your rules ASK YOUR ASSISTANT Ask in plain language: • "How many critical tasks this week?" • "What times am I free tomorrow?" • "Add a task Friday at 10 to call the dentist" • "Mark dentist done" Every answer comes from your real schedule — computed from your data, never invented. STAY ON TRACK • Reminders for the tasks you choose • Morning digest: your day's tasks at the start of your working hours • Insights: completion rate, streaks, your busiest hour • Charts of work done and missed, by day, week, or month EVERYWHERE YOU WORK • Sign in with Apple or Google — tasks sync automatically across your iPhone, iPad, and other devices • Works offline; syncs when you're back • Dark mode, search, CSV export PRIVATE BY DESIGN No ads. No analytics. No selling your data. Your tasks belong to you — delete your account and everything goes with it, any time, right from the app. Stop managing lists. Start managing hours.
