The Hour Draft

The Hour Draft is a day planner built around an hourly timeline. Instead of a flat list of tasks, your schedule lives on a visual grid that runs from early morning to midnight, so you can see exactly how your day is shaped at a glance.

Create time blocks in seconds. Assign each one a color category, set a start and end hour, and drag it up or down the timeline to reschedule without reopening a form. The layout makes it obvious when you are overcommitting an afternoon or leaving a midday gap you could fill.

Color-coded blocks let you separate work meetings, personal errands, exercise, and downtime without reading a single label. The visual weight of each block reflects how long it runs, giving you an honest picture of where your hours are going.

Everything is stored locally on your device. No account, no sync, no internet connection required. Open the app, plan your day, close it. Your schedule is there when you come back.

Settings let you switch between 12-hour and 24-hour time display, and choose how events are sorted by default — by time, name, or priority. A short two-screen introduction on first launch walks you through the core gestures, then stays out of your way.

The Hour Draft does one thing: it helps you see your day as it actually is, laid out hour by hour, and gives you the tools to shape it the way you want.
