Your work, scheduled for you

Stop planning your work.
Just do the next thing.

My Next Thing turns your projects, deadlines and meetings into a day-by-day schedule, so every morning you know exactly what to work on and that it's enough to hit every due date.

The Today view: a meeting at 3 PM, three tasks planned for today with hours done and planned, and progress cards for each project.

How it works

A to-do list that knows when things will get done

Most task apps give you a long list and leave the scheduling to you. My Next Thing does the scheduling and keeps it up to date as things change.

  1. Step 1

    Add your work

    Projects, tasks with hour estimates and due dates, meetings, recurring chores and days off. Rough estimates are fine.

  2. Step 2

    Get a schedule

    My Next Thing spreads every hour of work across your work days, backward from each deadline, around your meetings and in the right order.

  3. Step 3

    Plan the day, then do it

    Each morning, say how much time you have. Confirm the plan and get to work. Whatever doesn't fit moves to later days for you.

Features

Built for people who juggle more than one project

Freelancers, makers and anyone whose week is a mix of client work, side projects and admin.

Plan your day in under a minute

Having a normal day, a short one, or taking it off? Tell My Next Thing and it suggests today's plan with meetings already counted. Adjust hours, add or remove tasks, and start your day. The rest of the schedule reflows on its own.

  • Fewer hours today? The leftover work moves to later days.
  • Meetings take time out of the day automatically.

See every day ahead

The Everything view lays out your schedule day by day, as a week, or as one prioritized list. Filter by project or search across tasks, projects and notes.

  • Each day shows how full it is: "6h of 6h".
  • Pin work to a specific day when you need to.

Know why everything is where it is

Open any task to see exactly when it's scheduled and why: what it's waiting on, which deadline it's working back from, and how priority and project limits shaped it.

  • No black box. You can trust the plan because you can read it.
  • Change an estimate or a due date and the whole schedule updates instantly.
A task titled Cloud sync: conflict handling, scheduled Mon Nov 9 (3h), Tue Nov 10 (5h) and Wed Nov 11 (2h), with the reasons listed below.

Everything included

The details that make a schedule realistic

Deadlines that hold

Work is planned backward from each due date, so it finishes on time without crowding out urgent tasks.

Dependencies

A task that waits on another is scheduled after it, never before.

Meetings & days off

Fixed-time meetings shorten the day; holidays and time off are skipped entirely.

Recurring tasks

Weekly reports, monthly invoices, every second Tuesday. Set it once.

Time tracking

Run a timer or log hours. Estimates update as you go: "5h of 8h done".

Notes & checklists

Rich-text notes on every task, plus project notes and checklists for everything else.

Project limits

Cap a project at a few hours a day so one client doesn't eat your whole week.
