Six moments
A busy week, one short list a day
01When you think of it
Add a task as fast as you'd say it.
"Dentist fri 3pm" is a task on Friday at 3pm. Put the project, a label and a priority in the same line, and it's sorted as you type.
- "fri 3pm", "tomorrow" and "every monday" read as dates
- The project, a label and a priority in the same line
- No date yet? It waits in your Inbox
- Buy groceries for the weekToday
- Write the cover letterToday
02Today
See only what's due today.
Today shows what's due and nothing else. Yesterday's leftovers wait at the top under Overdue. Tap Reschedule, then Today or Tomorrow, and they all move.
- Late tasks grouped in red at the top
- Reschedule moves them all to today or tomorrow
- Move a single task to any other day
- Pay the electricity billYesterday
- Return the library booksSat 10:00am
03Planning the week
Plan the week ahead on one screen.
Upcoming shows the days ahead side by side. Spot the crowded day early, move what won't fit, and give a task a deadline that's separate from the day you'll do it.
- The week ahead, a day at a time
- A deadline separate from the day you'll do it
- Move a task to a quieter day

04Moving house
Break the big job into steps you can tick.
Make a project for the move and put the steps under it: book the van, redirect the post, cancel the gym. Each step gets its own date, and the task above it counts how many are done.
- Sub-tasks under any task, each with a date
- Projects with their own colour
- Project templates for a move or a trip
- Book the vanSat 3 Oct
- Redirect the postMon 5 Oct
- Cancel the gymWed 7 Oct
- Hand back the keysFri 9 Oct
05Repeats
Repeat the weekly jobs without writing them again.
Type "bins out every tuesday 8pm" once and the task comes back each week. Add a reminder and your phone tells you at the time you picked.
- "every tuesday" or "every weekday" in the same line
- Repeats that stop on a date, like "until 31 dec"
- A reminder at the time you choose
- Buy groceries for the weekToday
- Write the cover letterToday
06At the shops
See only the errands when you're out.
Label the jobs you do out of the house @errands, and one saved filter shows just those. Make another for your p1 tasks and open either in a tap.
- Labels like @errands or @calls
- Saved filters, one tap away
- Search any task by a word in it

Questions
The one you still open next month. Pick one where a task takes one line, Today shows only what's due, and late tasks wait where you can see them. That's what Palby Planner is built around.
It might, but you won't face all of it every day. Today shows only what's due. Yesterday's leftovers wait in one group at the top, nothing moves on its own, and Reschedule moves the whole group to today or tomorrow.
Yes. "Dentist fri 3pm", "tomorrow" and "every monday" are read as you type, along with a #project, an @label and p1 to p4.
Yes. Set a reminder time and you get a notification then. On iPhone, add Palby Planner to your Home Screen first, or the notification can't reach you.
Not yet. There's no import, so start with this week's tasks and add the rest as they come up.
