An intentional task operating system

A personal task management system, organized by the parts of your day.

A task management app for Android and iOS. Instead of fixed time slots, tasks live in time-of-day lanes — Early Day, Mid Day, Late Day — so your plan still holds when the day doesn't go as scheduled.

Not a checklist. A system you operate.

Plan with intent.
Execute with structure.

One system · three horizons

One task. Every horizon.

Up close, it's today's execution. Pulled back, the week's plan. Further still, the month's pattern. The same task — seen from wherever you're standing.

Time-of-day lanes, not clock timesEvery task carries its mode
Up closetoday · DayVu

The day, in full.

Tasks fall into time-of-day lanes — Early, Mid, Late — not rigid clock times. This is where intention becomes action.

See the week before it fills.

A seven-column grid for comparing load day to day, so overload gets caught in planning — not in the middle of a Tuesday.

Weekdays become rowsThe same task, traced across the month
The long viewthis month · MnthVu

Patterns you can plan around.

Not a grid — weekdays run in rows. Every Monday in a line, every Tuesday below it. Dense stretches become impossible to miss.

One task — Field Network — followed up close, across the week, and over the month.

The difference

Tasks that know their purpose.

Some work ends. Some you repeat. Some you steward — with no finish line at all.

Completion

Finishable work.

A clear end — the classic to-do. Mark it Complete, and once its final date passes, it winds down and archives on its own.

Complete
Guide

Work you come back to.

Structured work, not a routine — you Follow through when it's time and return as needed, at your own pace, with no streak to maintain.

Follow through

Or none at all. No mode is a valid choice — start simple, discover depth at your own pace.

Lifecycle Intelligence

The lifecycle runs itself — on your terms.

The mode you choose shapes the whole life of a task. VuCalendar watches it — ending-soon alerts, grace periods, automatic archiving — all aware of that mode. Completion tasks close, practice tasks stay open, and nothing happens without a reason.

The inbox surfaces three categories: Attention for urgent lifecycle events, Upcoming for import-tray reminders, and Log for archived history — each with its own unread count.

Task Active

Scheduled and in calendar flow — it appears in DayVu, WkVu, and MnthVu based on its dates.

Ending-Soon Notice

An inbox alert surfaces as the task nears its final date — time to act, extend, or close it out.

Completion & Legacy
30-Day Grace Window

After the final date passes, the task is held for 30 days before any automatic action. Nothing disappears without warning.

Mode-Aware Resolution

What happens next depends on the kind of work the task represents — the two tracks below diverge from here.

Archived — Never Lost

Archived tasks stay fully accessible — view them in settings, restore any of them anytime. Your history is permanent.

The organization layer

Structure that scales with your complexity.

A task can stand on its own. When your work gets layered, gather related tasks into groups — and nest those groups inside bigger ones, the housings your work belongs to. A Bulk Set runs alongside them, gathering related tasks across any group when you need to act on them together, without moving them out of their home. Set a color anywhere and it cascades down — so a glance always tells you where something belongs.

The sky you've been reading on

Weather Adaptive Background

Behind everything you plan, a living sky tracks the real weather where you are — pulled in live and redrawn in real time, never a stock loop. The sun and moon arc with the hour, clouds drift on the actual wind, rain and snow fall, and on clear nights the stars come out. When your weather turns, the app turns with it.

This week, seen whole

“Early Day held the clearest planning rhythm this week.”

  • Workout anchored 6 of 7 days.
  • Reading returned mid-week after a 9-day gap.
  • Late Day quietly absorbed what slipped.
  • A family call you’ve kept up since winter.

Reflect · HistoryVu

Not a report. A vantage.

It hands your weeks and months back whole — where a rhythm held, when a task returned after a gap, which window the work really landed in — read in the same voice your tasks carry: completion, practice, or guide.

It remembers the smaller things too — the calls you kept up, the errands you ran — not to grade them, just so you can see you did them. It observes; you decide.

Part of ProVu.

Questions

The honest answers.

What is VuCalendar?

VuCalendar is a task management app for Android and iOS that organizes work by time-of-day lanes instead of fixed clock times. Tasks carry an optional tracking mode — Completion, Practice, or Guide — so the app treats finishable work, repeatable habits, and open-ended follow-through differently, and three calendar views (DayVu, WkVu, MnthVu) show the same tasks at the scale of a day, a week, or a month.

Is VuCalendar free?

Yes. The free tier — BasicVu — includes all three calendar views, full time-of-day planning, tracking modes for up to 20 active tasks, the weather-adaptive sky, and calendar export, with no account required. Paid tiers add depth; they don't unlock a crippled core.

How is VuCalendar different from Todoist or TickTick?

Todoist and TickTick organize tasks around due dates and checklists. VuCalendar organizes them around time-of-day lanes instead — a task lives in a part of your day, like the top of the morning or the afternoon, rather than needing an exact time or date to make sense. Same general job, a different underlying structure.

What is time-of-day planning?

Time-of-day planning means giving a task a part of the day — Early Day, Mid Day, or Late Day, with six narrower sub-blocks underneath — instead of an exact clock time. A task assigned to a lane stays valid as the hours move, so a meeting that runs long doesn't invalidate everything scheduled after it the way a minute-precise time-blocked grid does.

Put your work in. Then see it clearly.
