PLANZ
Read full descriptionHide full description
Every planner makes you figure out when to do things. PLANZ does it for you. Add your tasks, set your available hours, and PLANZ auto-schedules everything into your day — no manual time-blocking, no drag-and-drop, no guesswork. No account. No email. No trial countdown. Free to start. THE ONLY PLANNER THAT SCHEDULES ITSELF Most planning apps are just fancy to-do lists. You still have to drag tasks around, guess how long things take, and rebuild your schedule every time something changes. PLANZ is different. Its auto-scheduling engine finds the best open gap in your day and drops your task there — automatically. You add the what. PLANZ figures out the when. HOW IT WORKS 1. Tell PLANZ your available hours (once). 2. Add a task with a rough duration. 3. PLANZ slots it into the right time — no drag, no guess. Add an urgent task, change your availability, or defer something, and PLANZ reflows your whole day instantly. BUILT FOR PEOPLE WHO ACTUALLY WANT TO GET THINGS DONE • Auto-Scheduling Engine — best-fit gap finding places tasks into your real free time. Not a rigid template. Your actual day. • Brain Dump + Siri — capture an idea the second it strikes, by typing or voice. PLANZ schedules it later. • Day Timeline — a clean morning / afternoon / evening view with a "Next Up" card so you always know what's next. • Focus Timer — Pomodoro, Custom, and Flow sessions tied to each task, with streaks and a daily goal. A live timer follows you on the Lock Screen and Apple Watch. • Routines & Templates — build morning routines, workouts, and weekly rituals that repeat and reschedule themselves. • Week Planner — a 7-day drag-and-drop view to see and rebalance your whole week.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Daily Planner at none against PLANZ's 2. Daily Planner also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 8 days vs every 6 weeks). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
