The review
What it does
Type or dictate everything on your mind and Pebble Planner sorts it into must-do, could-do and not-today, picks three priorities and blocks realistic time for them on your calendar, including buffers. At the end of the day it asks what got done and adjusts tomorrow.
Why we like it
It's opinionated in a good way: three priorities, not twelve, and it pads its own time estimates because it knows you'll underestimate. The end-of-day check-in is quick and slightly therapeutic. People who bounce off complicated task managers tend to stick with this one.
Watch out for
- The strict three-priority rule frustrates people with genuinely fragmented roles.
- Calendar sync can double-book if you also edit events elsewhere at the same moment.
- Advanced recurring tasks need a paid plan.
