Morning, Afternoon, and Evening bands make time easier to see, while three focused views let you choose the amount of detail you need right now. PLAN WITH THE RIGHT KIND OF ITEM • Events have a specific time. • Plans belong to a part of the day without needing an exact time. • Things hold ideas and tasks that are not ready to schedule yet. BUILD A DAY THAT WORKS FOR YOU • Shape each day around Start of Day, Noon, and Bed Time anchors. • Switch between Overview, Timeline, and Present views. • Break events and plans into smaller subtasks. • Save repeatable routines and add them to a day in one tap. • Choose warm or cool colors and use light or dark mode.
