Everything Weeklane does — free and with Pro
Weeklane is a minimalist weekly planner for iPhone, iPad, Mac and Android. The weekly view is free; Weeklane Pro adds Task Lock (an app blocker for iPhone and iPad that lifts when today's list is done), Plan with AI (connect Claude or ChatGPT to plan your week), sync across devices, reminders, recurring tasks, connected calendars and shared projects. Here's exactly what's inside.
Your whole week on one screen
Seven days stacked in a single view. Today is expanded by default with your tasks visible. Every other day is collapsed to just its name — tap any day to expand it. No calendar grid, no month view, no navigation.
Task Lock: an app blocker for your to-do list (Pro)
Since Weeklane 2.5. Choose the apps and websites that steal your time under Settings (the gear) → Task Lock. On iPhone and iPad they stay locked while today still has open tasks, and unlock automatically when today's list is done. Tasks later today only lock from their time, an optional 15-minute break is there when you need it, and it runs on Apple's Screen Time API, so Weeklane never sees which apps or sites you use. Not on Android yet (planned).
How Task Lock works →
Plan with AI: Claude or ChatGPT plans your week (Pro)
New in Weeklane 3.0. Connect Claude or ChatGPT to Weeklane and ask it to plan your week. It can add, edit, move and check off tasks, set reminders and repeating tasks, and on iPhone and iPad turn Task Lock on or off, set when it starts or switch between your saved block lists. Every AI change is listed under Settings → Plan with AI, where you can undo the last one or disconnect the assistant. Weeklane is listed in Claude's connector directory; in ChatGPT and other MCP apps you add it with the server URL.
Set up Plan with AI →Sync across your devices (Pro)
New in Weeklane 3.0. Sign in with Apple or Google if you like, and your week stays in sync across iPhone, iPad, Mac and Android. The account is optional: without one, your tasks stay on your device. You can delete the account and synced data at any time in Settings → Account.
Connected calendar events (Pro)
Weeklane can show the day's calendar events right above your task list, so meetings and to-dos live on the same screen. Calendar access is read-only, stays on your device, and can be switched off any time.
Your day on the Home Screen
Add the Weeklane widget and today's tasks sit right on your Home Screen — completed items struck through, what's next in plain sight. Tap the widget to jump straight into the app.
Tap to check things off
Tapping a task fills its checkbox orange and strikes through the text. Unchecked tasks stay put until you deal with them — you decide what to do, not the app.
Recurring tasks — set it once, keep moving (Pro)
Some tasks come back every day or every week. Choose Daily for everyday routines or Weekly for the same weekday. Each occurrence is completed independently, and you can remove one without disrupting the rest of the series — or stop future repeats entirely.
Reminders and task times (Pro)
Add a time to any task and receive a local notification when it's due. Times & Alerts are off by default and enabled in Settings. Notification permission is only requested when you save your first alert — reminders are scheduled on your device.
Choose your colour
Orange is still the default, but completed tasks can now use pink, blue, or green instead. Your selected colour also appears in Weeklane's Home Screen widgets, so app and widgets stay consistent.
Home Screen widgets for iOS
Medium and large widgets pin today's list to your Home Screen. The medium widget shows up to 5 tasks with incomplete ones prioritized. The large widget shows up to 10 tasks — or today plus tomorrow when today is light.
Date-specific tasks, no automatic rollover
Every task belongs to a specific day. Weeklane never silently moves your unfinished work to tomorrow. Your Monday list stays your Monday list until you change it.
Light and dark mode
Weeklane follows your system appearance out of the box and includes appearance controls in settings, plus a default for how many days should be open when you launch the app.
Personal and shared projects (Pro)
Group related tasks into personal projects, or invite people to a shared project. Invited members collaborate in real time, assign and complete tasks, and keep project deadlines and reminders in sync.
Private by design
Without an account, your personal weekly tasks stay on your device. With the optional account, your week syncs between your devices. Shared projects use a private cloud identity so invited members can keep their project tasks synchronized, and connected calendar access is read-only. Weeklane does not sell your data.
Free to plan, Pro when you need more
The weekly planner is free, with no time limit. Weeklane Pro, which includes Task Lock, Plan with AI, sync, reminders, recurring tasks, connected calendars and projects, comes with a 7-day free trial, then costs $4.99/month or $34.99/year, with localized store pricing. Cancel during the trial and you are not charged. Earlier lifetime purchasers keep their access.
