Elegant Planner vs One Block

See your whole day as a timeline instead of a list. Give each task a time, a length, a color and an icon, and watch the day take shape — including the gaps you actually have. SPEAK YOUR DAY Say "gym at 9 for an hour, then lunch at noon" and get tasks with times, durations and titles filled in. Speech is processed entirely on your device. Nothing is uploaded, and nothing is saved until you review it and tap Apply. A VISUAL TIMELINE • Your day from morning to night, at a glance • Color-coded tasks with icons and durations • A live line showing where you are right now • Week view to see what is coming CAPTURE NOW, PLAN LATER • An Inbox for thoughts that do not have a time yet • Move them into the day when they fit • Reusable templates for days that repeat FOCUS • Focus sessions drawn straight from your plan • Choose 15, 25, 45, 60 minutes or your own • Sessions survive closing the app END THE DAY WELL • Close the day and move what is unfinished to tomorrow in one tap • Everything keeps its time of day • Undo if you change your mind SEE WHERE YOUR TIME GOES • A week of your own patterns • How much you planned against how much fits • No streaks to protect, no guilt WIDGETS AND WATCH • Home Screen widgets in small, medium and large • Lock Screen widgets for what is next • An Apple Watch app for today's plan on your wrist PRIVATE BY DESIGN • No account. Nothing to sign up for. • Your planner stays on your device unless you turn on iCloud Sync • Calendar access is read-only and optional • No third-party analytics, no advertising, no tracking ELEGANT PLANNER PRO Pro adds planning that thinks ahead: calendar-aware planning, Repair My Day, Voice Planning, Weekly Review, Advanced Filters, Bulk Actions and Custom Repeat.

End the day-of-busy-but-nothing-done. Most days don't fail for lack of effort. They fail because everything felt urgent and nothing got decided. One Block fixes that with a single rule: choose ONE thing that matters today, protect the time with a focus timer, and see how it actually went. One block. One thing that mattered. Every day. ONE KEY SCENE A DAY — JUST ONE Pick the single most important thing to focus on today. One Block refuses to let you have two — by design. Do fewer things, deeper. The decision is the whole point. PLAN IT BEFORE IT HAPPENS Time-block your Key Scene on a clean calendar with day, week, and month views. Set it the night before, get a reminder before it starts, and let the timer carry you in. Time blocking that fits one focused day. A FOCUS TIMER THAT KEEPS YOU HONEST Start your block and the focus timer runs. Pauses are recorded as they happen, so deep work becomes something you build — not something you pretend. A calmer, more honest take on the classic pomodoro timer: one block, full attention. SEE HOW THE DAY ACTUALLY WENT Planned vs. actual. A Focus Score from 0 to 100. Streaks, Deep Focus Time, completion rate, your best time window, and recovery rate. Receipts you can trust — no more guessing what you got done. INSIGHTS THAT COACH, NOT JUDGE Clear progress summaries across day, week, month, and year. Optional AI insights turn your numbers into short, practical coaching so you keep improving. WHO IT'S FOR - Students preparing for exams - Side-project builders, coders, and indie makers - Writers, researchers, and creators - Anyone tired of confusing "busy" with "productive" WHY ONE BLOCK You don't need more tasks or another endless to-do list. You need to do fewer things, deeper. One Block is a focus and productivity app built so you end every day knowing exactly what you accomplished. FREE & PRO Plan your Key Scene, run the focus timer, and track day and week progress for free. Upgrade to Pro for month, year, and lifetime insights, AI coaching summaries, more execution reminders, and an ad-free experience. PRIVACY FIRST No account required.
