HomeTechReview: This app combines your calendar and tasks

One of the many modern-day annoyances that we all seem to accept is the fact that calendars and to-dos live in their own separate silos. Sure, you can connect your calendar to a to-do app, but that’s not the same. When planning your day, something akin to a day planner that can show you your calendar appointments along with related to-dos would be much better for most of us.

Luckily, there’s an app that’s managed to combine both of these features into an intuitive day planner interface. If you’re getting tired of jumping between apps, it might be time to try the Structured app, which works seamlessly across iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Android.

The approach with the Structured app is to add a task with a time frame in mind. Let’s say you have to finish an email today. Great. Before, you would write that task down in an app and then forget about it. Instead, in Structured, you can say, I have to write an email to my HR head and I’ll work on it between 2:00 and 2:30. It will then appear on your timeline and help you visually block out your time. When you schedule a day like this, you’re much more likely to finish the tasks because they’re now anchored to a time block. Plus, you can be sure they don’t overlap (something the app will warn you about).

Structured starts with a visual timeline of all your tasks. When you first set up the app, it will ask you when you wake up and when you go to sleep.
