OnlyListWeekly task planner
Give your week a shape without over-engineering it.
The Planner shows a backlog on the left and a column for each day. Drag a task into a day and its date updates. That's the whole trick.
Backlog to day
Drag into a day. The date takes care of itself.
Overdue tasks, tasks for later and tasks with no date sit in the backlog. Drag one into Tuesday and it's due Tuesday. Drag it to Wednesday when Tuesday gets crowded.
- Each day shows how much time is planned and when you're free after.
- Timed tasks show their time. The rest stay anytime tasks.
- Plan across all your lists, or filter down to one.
Plan my day
Then plan each morning in a minute.
When the day arrives, Plan my day helps you pick what actually fits, with time estimates adding up as you go.
- Tasks without an estimate count as 30 minutes.
- Works together with Today's list, timeline and grid.
Upcoming
See the week as a simple list, too.
Upcoming groups the coming tasks by day. It's a quick way to check the week without leaving the list view, and it's free.
- Tomorrow and the days after, each on its own sheet.
- Snooze or reschedule without opening a calendar.

FAQ
Questions people reasonably ask.
How does the weekly planner work?
A backlog column holds overdue tasks, later tasks and tasks with no date. Next to it is a column for each day. Drag a task into a day and it gets that date. Drag between days to reschedule.
Is the Planner different from Plan my day?
Yes. Plan my day helps you choose what fits today. The Planner maps the whole week ahead of time. Many people use the Planner on Sunday and Plan my day each morning.
Does the planner show tasks from all my lists?
Yes, by default. Filter to a single list, like Work or Home, when you want to plan one area at a time.
Is the Planner free?
The Planner is part of Premium, along with Timeline, Calendar, Board and Matrix. The free plan includes Today, Plan my day, Upcoming and the Today grid, which cover most daily planning.
