Timeful for iOS aims to help you make time to get everything done

If you’ve ever lamented that “there aren’t enough hours in the day” to get everything done, an iOS app called Timeful might just be what you’re looking for. Timeful is a calendar and to-do manager that examines how long each of your to-do items should take, where each task will take place, and more to find the perfect opening in your schedule to get it done.

Timeful will automatically figure out what you need to do and when you can best accomplish it, even taking into account whether you’re a “morning person” or a “night person” in order to ensure that you’re at the top of your game for your most important activities.

The app is powered by a set of algorithms based on behavioral science that can assign levels of importance to family outings, meetings at work, and personal goals to decide, all while learning from your own input what items are most important to you.

You can also create new habits with Timeful by scheduling a repeating to-do, such as working out or walking the dog, then tell the app how often you want to do that activity and get scheduling recommendations.

You can even setup your work hours within the app’s settings, which allows it to figure out when to schedule items from your work and personal lists so that you’re not taking care of your own business while you’re on the clock.

Once the app has figured out exactly what you should be doing and when you should be doing it, you’ll start to see suggestions in your calendar for each habit and to-do that you’ve created.

If you’d like to take Timeful’s unique approach to managing your day for a spin, you can grab the app for free right now on the iOS App Store.

    Nice.

  2. Really nice looking app. Check out PaperBox, which is another awesome app for keeping track of stuff – namely documents and receipts.

    Very nice features, I’m downloading this app immediately. I would not need a reminder to read a story to my kids though.
