What Dayblok is
Dayblok is an iOS app that turns a to-do list into a time-blocked daily schedule. Tasks can be dragged from an inbox onto a timeline, and schedule gaps help users plan around the time they have available. The app imports existing Apple Calendar events to help avoid double-booking. Calendar access is one-time and read-only, and selected-day events are processed on-device. Dayblok says tasks and plans stay on the device and are not sent to its servers; it does not require an account or provide cloud sync. The free plan includes visual time blocking, task planning, and calendar import. Pro adds unlimited tasks, unlimited calendar imports, and planning hours from 6AM to 10PM. The app is designed for iPhone and requires iOS 17.0 or later. Pro subscriptions are handled through Apple's in-app purchase system, and Dayblok says it does not collect or store payment information. Support is available by email.
