The spread stays on the desk. The day goes in your pocket.

One account, any browser, nothing to install. The planner meets the screen it’s on — and it’s the same day everywhere.

The pain

Thirty-five years of paper had one flaw. You had to carry it.

The paper planner never crashed, never needed charging, never lost your week. But it lived where you left it — and the day doesn’t stay at the desk.

The answer

Sign in anywhere. Today is already open.

There’s nothing to install — the planner lives on the web, and the screen in your hand is the whole setup. Phone, iPad, desktop: one account, the same tasks, the same notes, exactly where you left them. Nothing synced by hand, no backup to remember, no device to pair. No device limit on any plan.

Your planner opens on today — exactly as you left it on the last screen you used.

On a phone

Everything, one column, thumb-first.

The daily page on a phone, tabs at the foot of the screen

The tabs move to the bottom of the screen where your thumb already is. The day stacks into one column — focus, then tasks, then the schedule. Nothing is hidden and nothing is cut; it is the same day, read top to bottom instead of side by side.

On an iPad

The two-page spread, and room to think.

Planner view on iPad, the day on the left page

The extra width earns the paper layout back: the day on the left, notes and the hour-by-hour schedule on the right, with the gutter down the middle exactly where the binding used to be. This is Planner view, and it is the closest thing to the book you already know.

On a desktop

The sidebar comes out, and everything is one click.

The desktop layout, sidebar on the left

Every section sits in a permanent sidebar rather than behind a tab — Daily, Week, Projects, Notes, Shopping, and the whole Life Planning set beneath them. Nothing is more than one click from anything else, which is what a big screen is for.

The argument

You don’t have to take the planner with you anymore.

Planner view, the two-page daily spread

The spread can stay open on the desk where it belongs, because the phone carries the day for you. Speak a task in the car; it’s on the spread when you’re back at the desk. That’s the thing no paper planner — and no other app — can offer.

Planner view is iPad and desktop. On a phone you get the same day in one column, built for the smaller screen.

The planner lived on my desk and the work lived everywhere else. Half my day happened further than arm’s reach from the thing that was supposed to be running it.
