About

Time Spiral

Features
Read full description

You plan your day the night before. Careful, optimistic. Then morning comes, life happens, and your calendar just sits there, frozen, unable to adapt. Every planner assumes you're perfect. Every time tracker only looks backward. You end up juggling multiple apps just to get through a single morning, and none of them talk to each other. Time Spiral is different. It's a realistic planner that combines scheduling, prioritization, and time tracking into one beautiful spiral, and it reshapes your day in real time when things don't go as planned. HOW IT WORKS Create tasks in 2 taps. Set your priorities and pin your fixed events (meetings, classes, appointments). Time Spiral automatically fills your free time around your obligations, scheduling your most important tasks first. As your day unfolds, the spiral adapts. Fall behind? It reshuffles. Something runs long? The rest of your day adjusts. No guilt, no manual reorganizing, just a plan that moves with you. FEATURES Spiral Day View - See your entire day at a glance on a stunning spiral graph. Your whole active schedule on a single clock-like view, showing your tasks, events, and free time in one place. Priority Queue - Order your tasks by importance and pin your events at specific times. The spiral automatically schedules your tasks around your obligations, filling your free time with what matters most. Seamless Time Tracking - Background tracking records your actual time on tasks. See what you really did, not what you planned to do. Rollover - Didn't finish everything? At the end of the day, unfinished tasks automatically postpone to the next day. Statistics and Insights - Track streaks, discover your most productive hours, see category breakdowns, and compare your estimates to actual time spent. Privacy First - No data is stored in the app or ever leaves your device. THE PHILOSOPHY Time Spiral is built on five principles: You cannot change the past. Track what you actually did, not what you planned. Focus on one task at a time. Multitasking is a myth. Do things you actually want to do. Your priorities define who you become. Adapt to your mistakes with insight. Statistics reveal your patterns. Look forward to work, look forward to rest. A clear plan removes anxiety. You are your time. You will become your priorities. --- Terms Of Service: https://timespiral.app/tos/ Privacy Policy: https://timespiral.app/privacy/

It unlocks calendar sync, widgets, unlimited exports, and an ad-free experience. Calendar sync can also be temporarily unlocked by watching a rewarded ad.
