Anchor: Daily Planner & Focus

Plan your focus, not your time.

Most planners ask you to predict your day down to the minute. Anchor doesn't. Instead of scheduling every task to exact times, you organize your day around focus blocks — flexible containers for the work that matters. Things move around. That's fine. The plan adapts with you.

Built for people who already know how to work; they just need a calm place to lay it all out.

HOW IT WORKS:

Capture what's on your mind. Type naturally or use Smart Dates to turn "finish proposal by Friday" into a real task. No forms, no friction.

Drop tasks into focus blocks. Drag them into blocks that match your day. Big projects span blocks. Small things group together. Your calendar events show up alongside them.

Anchor in, one block at a time. Focus on what's in front of you. When a block's done, move on. Something left over? Move it forward. No guilt.

WHAT'S INSIDE:

Time blocking that bends around your day

Smart Dates

Calendar and Reminders sync

Widgets, Live Activity, and Siri shortcuts

Focus mode with distraction shielding

Freelancers juggling clients and context switching. Founders wearing too many hats before lunch. Parents balancing deep work and school runs. Students navigating coursework and side projects. Anyone who doesn't need to be told how to work.

MADE BY A HUMAN
