Description
Apple's App of The Day in 150+ countries & TechRadar’s best iPhone apps of 2020!
“Take control of your own schedule” - Apple
“Hour Blocks solves key problems in digital calendaring” - TechRadar
"You're going to love this" - iMore
“Hour Blocks rethinks digital calendars” - Stuff
“The idea is simple but brilliant” - Gizmodo
“The simplest way to schedule your days” - TapSmart
Effortlessly take control of your day with Hour Blocks, a day planner app that’s both simple and beautiful. Whether you’re a student, a small business owner, or even a full-time parent, Hour Blocks is the organisational tool that’s missing from your day-to-day life.
FOCUS ON YOUR DAY
Hour Blocks presents a chronological timeline of your next 24 hours, allowing you to focus on what’s truly next, rather than crowding you with anything and everything you have coming up in your life. You can even take advantage of the new iOS 14 home screen with the Hour Blocks widget to show you what's coming up next.
MINIMAL EFFORT, MAXIMUM CONVENIENCE
Simply tap on an Hour Block, type in what you have planned, and you’re done- with a nice icon automatically generated for you. Over time you’ll also start seeing suggested hour blocks based on your previous activity, making the experience even more effortless. You don’t have to abandon using the Calendar app either, as Hour Blocks automatically pulls in events from your calendar.
A SATISFYING EXPERIENCE
Every part of the Hour Blocks experience has been developed to make it as satisfying as possible for you to use. From the playful language to the laid back colour scheme, organising your day doesn’t feel like a chore.
GET IN TOUCH
If you have any questions or feedback, please get in touch. Hour Blocks was created by an incredibly small team of one and I'd love to hear your thoughts. You can reach me on Twitter @j_t_saeed.
