How It Works

From task list to daily schedule in seconds

Most schedule planners are just calendars. Super Productivity combines your task list with a visual timeline so you can plan, execute, and track in one place.

1) Add your tasks

Create tasks or import them from Jira, GitHub, or GitLab. Set time estimates so the planner knows how much space each task needs in your day.

2) Drag into your schedule

Drag tasks into the daily timeline. See at a glance whether you have enough hours for everything. The schedule view shows overload warnings before you overcommit.

3) Execute and adapt

Start the timer on each task. If something takes longer, drag to reschedule the rest. Your day stays organized even when plans change.

More than a calendar

Unlike standalone calendar apps, Super Productivity connects your schedule directly to task management and time tracking. Every scheduled block is a real task with notes, subtasks, and logged time. For the method behind visual scheduling, read our time boxing guide.

See Your Entire Day at a Glance

A timeline view that shows exactly what you planned, what you finished, and how much capacity remains.

Plan Realistically, Adjust Instantly

A good daily plan is not rigid. It adapts. Super Productivity makes rescheduling as easy as dragging a block, so you stay organized without fighting your tools.

  • Drag-and-Drop Scheduling

    Move tasks into time slots by dragging. Resize blocks to adjust duration. Rearrange your day in seconds when priorities shift.

  • Capacity Visualization

    See how many hours you have available versus how much work is scheduled. Catch overcommitment before it happens.

  • Day and Week Views

    Plan a single day in detail or zoom out to see your entire week. Switch between views to balance short-term execution with weekly goals.

  • Integrated Time Tracking

    Start a timer directly from your schedule. Actual time is logged against the planned block so you learn how accurate your estimates are.

How People Plan Their Days

" I used to start every morning wondering what to work on first. Now I drag my tasks into the schedule the night before and hit the ground running. "


Rachel Wu

Product Designer

" The overload warning saved me from saying yes to too many things. Being able to see that I only have 2 hours of free capacity makes it easy to push back on last-minute requests. "


Kevin Okafor

Engineering Manager

" As a freelancer juggling multiple clients, having a visual schedule with time tracking built in means I always know where my day went. Invoicing at month-end takes minutes instead of hours. "

Learn From Your Schedule

Estimates vs. Reality

The gap between what you planned and what actually happened is where productivity improvements live.

Your Data, Your Improvement

Most schedule planners only show the future. Super Productivity also shows the past, so your planning gets better every week. For more on time awareness, see our time tracking & work analytics guide.

  • Estimated vs. Actual Time

    Every task tracks both planned and actual time. Over weeks, you see patterns: which tasks you consistently underestimate, and which you overplan.

  • Daily Work Log

    At the end of each day, review what you accomplished. The work log captures every task, every time entry, and every session.

  • Better Planning Over Time

    Historical data makes future schedules more realistic. Stop guessing, start planning based on evidence from your own work.

FAQs

Schedule Planner Questions

Common questions about daily planning and scheduling with Super Productivity.

Is Super Productivity free as a schedule planner?

Yes. Super Productivity is completely free and open-source. The schedule planner, task management, time tracking, and all other features are included at no cost. There are no premium tiers or feature locks.

How is this different from a calendar app?

Calendar apps show appointments. Super Productivity is a task-based schedule planner: you create tasks with time estimates, drag them into a visual timeline, and track actual time spent. It combines planning, execution, and analysis in one tool.

Can I plan my week in advance?

Yes. The week view lets you distribute tasks across multiple days. You can plan an entire week, then refine each day as it arrives. Unfinished tasks carry forward automatically.

Does the schedule planner work with Jira or GitHub?

Yes. Import tasks from Jira, GitHub, or GitLab. Schedule imported tickets alongside your personal tasks. Time tracking data stays linked to the original issue for easy reporting.

Does it work offline?

Yes. Super Productivity works entirely offline. Your schedule, tasks, and time logs are stored locally on your device. No internet connection or cloud account is required.

What is the difference between a schedule planner and time boxing?

A schedule planner helps you map tasks to time slots in your day. Time boxing adds the constraint of a fixed duration per task. Super Productivity supports both: plan your day visually, then optionally set strict time boxes for individual tasks.
