Planning Update - Time Planning

August 20, 2024

We’ve enhanced our Planning feature so that you can now plan not just the date, but also the time and duration.

We’ve been busy working on improving the stability of the product, like identifying where performance might be lagging and addressing infrastructure gaps, so the update list is a bit shorter this time. But don’t worry, we’ll walk you through every detail. 

⭐This Week's Highlights

Planning Update - Time Planning ⏰

Now, when you press the ‘ H ’ shortcut to plan your tasks, you can set not only the date but also the time and duration. When you plan the time, it automatically creates a time block in your calendar.

How to Use 📚

  • Time Planning: Add a time after the date to plan your tasks. We support both 24-hour and 12-hour formats.
    • Tomorrow 13:00
    • Tue 3PM
  • Duration Planning: Plan your task duration using keywords like 'to', '~', '-', or 'for'.
    • Tomorrow 4pm to 5pm
    • Today 5pm for 1 hour
    • Mon 4pm ~ Tue 8am
    • Mon 4pm - Tue 8am

Heads Up 📢

To use the updated Planning feature on the desktop app, please press “CMD + R” to refresh the app.

💎 Hidden Gems

New option for recurring events update

We’ve added a new option for editing recurring events. Previously, you could only choose between "This event" and "All events," but now you can also choose "This and after." It’s a basic feature, but we’re glad to finally bring it to you. (It may seem simple, but trust us, some things are trickier than they look!)

🐛 Bug Fix

  • We’ve fixed part of an issue where WebSocket wasn’t working properly, causing real-time updates to fail.

🚀 Upcoming

  • Tagging Feature: Soon, you’ll be able to add tags to your tasks, helping you organize them in a way that fits your style, beyond just using lists.
  • List Reordering: We’re working on a feature that lets you reorder lists easily by dragging and dropping, instead of adjusting them in the display settings.
  • Natural Language Task Creation: We’re preparing a feature that lets you create tasks more easily and quickly with natural language input, capturing all the details you need.
  • Todoist Integration: We’re planning to add a light integration with Todoist so you can use it alongside our app.

💬 Behind the Scenes

  • This week, we’ve been focused on identifying and addressing any issues with the product, so there are fewer updates than usual. While new features are exciting, we believe it’s just as important to ensure the basics (like login, speed, and integration stability) work flawlessly. We’re making sure everything is set for a smooth experience.
  • Since our global launch, things have been both hectic and dreamlike. We’ve had the pleasure of speaking with users from France, Prague, Japan, Israel, and Ukraine, learning about what’s missing in our product and what we can improve. It feels like we’re taking the first steps toward our dream of creating a global user base. And it’s all thanks to you.
  • But this week has also been a time to realize where we still have room to grow. We’ve noticed that our product speed in some regions isn’t quite what it is here in Korea (where it’s blazing fast). We’ve also seen that it’s crucial to handle the basics well, like ensuring smooth logins for all users.
  • We have so many features we want to build, but above all, we’re committed to making a service that gets the basics right, every time. Even without flashy AI, we believe the most important thing is to deliver a service that feels natural, easy, and fast in your hands.
