What you get

Give your tasks a place in your day, alongside your meetings.

With Chunk, you can turn a task list into a plan for when you’ll actually do the work. Drag tasks from Apple Reminders onto a 24-hour timeline, then adjust their length to make room for meetings, focused work, and breaks. Your Google, Outlook, and Apple Calendar events appear alongside those blocks, and calendar changes sync both ways.

You can see how much time remains in your current block from the menu bar, without opening your schedule. When plans change, bring up the panel over your current app—even in fullscreen—and move things around without switching away.

For recurring routines, you can save a typical day and have it applied automatically on chosen weekdays. You can also connect Claude to draft or rearrange your schedule using natural-language requests.

  • Turn tasks into scheduled work

    Drag your Apple Reminders onto your day so you know when you plan to tackle each task.

  • Keep calendars in agreement

    See your Google, Outlook, and Apple Calendar events together, with changes synced back to their source.

  • Know your remaining time

    Check the menu-bar countdown to see how long you have left in your current block.

  • Reuse your usual routine

    Have saved day templates fill selected weekdays automatically instead of rebuilding the same schedule.

Best for

  • You want to schedule tasks around existing meetings
  • You use Apple Reminders but need time set aside for each task
  • You follow recurring weekday routines

Skip it if

You probably don’t need Chunk if your calendar already covers your planning needs and you prefer an unscheduled task list.
