Drift is a visual daily planner built around one vertical timeline. It combines a todo list, schedule planner, calendar alternative, and time blocking app into one quiet view of your day. Drag on the timeline to create a todo for a time range. Long-press a bubble to move or resize it. Swipe a bubble across the timeline to mark it done, or pull it farther away to remove it with undo. Drift is useful for: - Daily planning and time blocking - Todo lists, task management, and personal schedules - Work blocks, study sessions, errands, meetings, reminders, and routines - People who prefer a visual timeline over a traditional calendar - Quickly rearranging a day without filling out forms On supported Apple Intelligence devices, you can also hold the bottom date pill and speak naturally. Drift can help add a time block, rename a todo, reschedule it, mark it done, or remove it. Voice understanding runs on device on supported devices; Drift does not process voice commands or todos on a server. Drift is built for private personal planning. There are no accounts, no analytics, no ads, and no tracking. Your timeline stays on your device, with iCloud sync when available and local storage as fallback.
