Time blocks

Time blocks are intended to reflect time working on a particular task or project. Plan your work day by blocking off periods of focus. Once your work is complete, convert the time block to a time log to make sure all of your time is accounted for.

  • Time blocks are time-based and cannot be created in the all-day panel.
  • Time blocks must be associated with a project. They can (optionally) be associated with a specific task in that project.
  • You can create overlapping time blocks.
  • Use the task planner to create time blocks for any tasks regardless of whether their start and due dates fall in the period being viewed.

📖 Learn about creating and managing time blocks.

Tasks

Your assigned tasks are displayed in the all-day panel at the top of the calendar view.

  • Tasks with start and due dates show on every day within the task's duration.
  • Tasks with due dates but no start dates only show on the due date.
  • Each day shows a maximum of four tasks.
    • Click the arrow on the all day section's left to expand the view. Alternatively, click more on a day to expand.
