01 Method
What is time blocking?
Time blocking means giving each task its own slot in the week instead of a place on a list. The time blocking method is simple: decide what matters, guess how long it takes, then give it a block with a start and an end.
This time blocking planner puts the week on a grid of half-hour rows. A block repeats every week, until a date if you like, or happens one time, and you can skip a single week without deleting it. Unlike a paper time block planner, nothing needs copying out again.
Planning classes and homework instead? Use the study planner: the same grid, with subjects for school.
02 How to
How to use the time blocking planner
-
Block out the time
Drag across the grid, or tap a time on your phone. The Add block button opens the same form from the keyboard.
-
Name the block
Pick a subject for the project or the client, and add what to do. Each subject keeps its own color.
-
Repeat it or keep it one time
Every week repeats a block. One time is for a deadline or an appointment. Press several days to add the block to each of them.

Print, export or share
Print the week on one landscape page, copy it as text, save a calendar file or share a link to the plan.
03 FAQ
Questions about time blocking
How is time blocking different from a to-do list?
A to-do list says what to do; a time block also says when. Giving a task a place in the week shows at once whether it fits. Many people keep both: the list for everything, the blocks for this week.
Is this a time blocking template?
Yes, one that fills itself in: set up your weekly time blocking once, and every repeating block shows up in the weeks after it. Print the week, save it as a PDF from the print window or keep it in your browser. For a sheet with room to write, use the printable weekly planner.
Can I plan my work week with it?
Yes. A subject can be a project or a client, and blocks and repeats work the same way. Put meetings in first, then block out time for focused work. Overlapping blocks get a warning, but you can still save them.
Do the hours from the timer count toward my blocks?
Yes. The play button on a block opens the timer with its subject, and every finished session goes to the same log as the other timers on the site. Under the grid you see the hours logged next to the hours planned; the study tracker shows them by day and week.
Can I add my blocks to Google Calendar?
Yes. Export to calendar saves an .ics file for Google Calendar, Apple Calendar or Outlook. Weekly blocks come in as repeating events with their end date and skipped weeks, one-time blocks from this week on as single events.
Is the time blocking planner free?
Yes. It works like a time blocking app in your browser: no sign-up, no ads, nothing to install and no limit on blocks. Your plan is saved in this browser.
