Plan your week

A week planned in minutes.

Monday starts with a list too long for the week; here is how to see it, fit it and finish it.

Week

Step by step

From a long list to a week.

Four steps: once at the start of the week, once a day, and once at the end.

  1. Step 1: Look at what is coming

    Upcoming shows the next seven days one by one, then the rest of the month. Move what does not fit to another day, or to Someday.

    Upcoming
  2. Step 2: Give each task its hour

    Drag tasks into the week's hour grid, next to the meetings from Google, Outlook or iCloud. A block is as long as the task's duration.

  3. Step 3: Plan each morning

    Each morning, Today offers to plan: overdue tasks, the Inbox and what is coming, with one click for today, tomorrow or Someday.

  4. Step 4: Close the week with a review

    Add a weekly review that repeats every Friday. From 16:00, Wrap up shows what got done and moves the rest.

Views to use

Three views for one week.

  • Upcoming

    The week ahead, day by day, to see what is coming and move what does not fit.

  • Calendar

    The hours of the week, with your meetings in grey, to give each task its time.

  • Today

    The day in front of you, with Plan your day in the morning and Wrap up at the end.

Tips

Small habits, calmer weeks.

  • Give tasks a duration (“for 45m” in quick add) so the calendar shows how full the week really is.
  • Save a filter for P1 and P2 tasks due in the next seven days, and start the review there.
  • Park ideas in Someday instead of giving them a date you will move anyway.
  • Away a week? Skip this time moves the review on without marking it done.

Questions and answers

Is there a separate weekly planner?

No. The week is Upcoming and the calendar's week view, which show the same tasks as your lists. Plan your day and Wrap up help each day.

Can I see my meetings while I plan?

Yes. Add the secret iCal link of a Google, Outlook or iCloud calendar and its events show read-only in the week view and the day plan.

Will thisflow move my tasks for me?

No. Plan your day and Wrap up suggest; nothing moves unless you move it.

Can my planned tasks show in Google Calendar?

Yes. A private calendar link puts your dated tasks in Google Calendar, Apple Calendar or Outlook.

Plan next week on Friday.

Create an account, open Upcoming and drag your first task into the week.
