Not just a calendar

It does the work, not just the showing

The assistant being told about a sick day, offering a button that says Move 3 tasks to Friday.
Ask it in plain words. It proposes, you press the button, and anything it does can be undone.
A bar chart of the next two weeks, with the busiest day, a Thursday with two tests, standing out.
See the heavy week coming. So a bad Thursday is something you knew about on Monday.

Reminders that name the thing. Tick it off without opening the app. Quiet hours keep them out of class.
  • Sorted for you. Grouped by class, soonest first, tests flagged early, a colour each.
  • Add your own. Type it in, or photograph the board. It files under the right class.
  • Plan tonight. Your homework, timed out until bedtime.
  • The week in review. Each Sunday: what got done, what is still open, and what is next.
  • Grades, with a goal. Set one for each class and see where you are. Canvas grades come in too.
  • Class pages. Tap a class to see when it meets and everything due for it.
  • Big stuff only. One switch hides everything but tests, essays and projects.
  • Works when your school doesn’t. Portal down? Your last update stays put, and says how old it is.
  • Read it your way. Bigger text, more contrast, an easier font, less motion. It can read to you, and you can ask out loud.
No calendar? No problem

Simple mode

A week you type into. Nothing to find, nothing to log into. Add a calendar later and everything you wrote stays where it is.

Simple mode: a full-width week, Monday to Sunday, with a few typed tasks under each day and a Someday row below.
A task opened: its date, a notes field with a formatting toolbar, and two subtasks.
Open anything. Notes, subtasks, a colour, a reminder, a repeat — and a real calendar to pick the day from.
Search: the word essay typed in, the green colour selected, and matching tasks going back weeks.
Find anything. Every task you have ever written, by word or by colour, however far back.
  • Type on any day. Click a day, write the thing. That’s the whole interaction.
  • It knows what things are. Write “chem lab” or “audition” and the line labels and colours itself.
  • Steps and notes. Break one thing down, tick the parts off, write as much as you like underneath.
  • Repeat and remind. Any pattern you need, and a nudge by phone or email at a time you pick.
  • Move it in a tap. Tomorrow, next week, or Someday — for things with no day yet.
  • Share a task. A read-only link, or straight to somebody’s email.
  • Invite a friend. Send your link to someone in your classes, with your first name on it if you like.
Setup takes a minute

Good to know

  1. Grab your link. Setup asks which portal your school uses and shows you where to look.
  2. Paste it once. Or skip it and use simple mode.
  3. Glance and go. Every morning, your day is already waiting.

Stuck? The assistant is one tap away inside the app, and it will help you find the link.

Is it free?

Yes — no card, no trial.

Will it work with my school?

If you can subscribe to your school calendar in Apple or Google Calendar (an iCal / “.ics” link), Daily Overview can read it.

Do I need an app?

No — it runs in any browser, and you can add it to your home screen.

What if a teacher never posts the homework?

Type it in — “bio essay friday” is enough, and it works out the day and the class. Or photograph the board.

My dashboard would be a mess — five classes, dozens of tiny items.

Every class gets a colour, and “big stuff only” hides everything but tests, essays and projects.

What happens if my school’s portal goes down?

Nothing breaks. Daily Overview keeps your last successful sync and shows it with a note saying how old it is, rather than going blank at the moment you need it.

I do more than classes — sport, theatre, a job.

So does this. A line labels itself as a rehearsal, a practice, a game, a shift, a club meeting or an application, and you can switch off the kinds your year does not have.

Can I use it without a school calendar link?

Yes. Simple mode is a week you type into — seven days, a line under each, nothing to set up. Add a calendar link later and your classes appear alongside what you wrote.

Ready to stop missing things?

Set it up in a minute. Let tomorrow take care of itself.

Calendar

Read a calendar

Optional. Paste a calendar link and everything on it lands on your board as ordinary lines — rename them, move them, colour them, tick them off. A small calendar marks the ones that came from it.

Where your calendars go

The full app and the week board can each read any of them. Tap to put a calendar on a board or take it off.

Your boards

Up to five separate weeks — school on one, everything else on another. One shows at a time.

Share your week

A read-only link. They can open it without an account, and put anything on it onto their own board if they want it.

Photos and files

Open a task to attach a photo or a PDF — six per task, 10 MB each. PNG, JPG and PDF.

A file goes two weeks after its task’s day, unless you have opened it since. The task and its notes stay.

Share a task or a board and its files go with it.

Take your week with you

Copies everything unfinished on your board into full mode’s to-do list. Your board stays exactly as it is, and pressing it again won’t make duplicates.

Display

Theme

Task colours

An uncoloured task takes its colour from what it is — a test red, a rehearsal pink. The label says so either way.

This device

The board is laid out differently on each.

Carry unfinished items forward

Ticked means unfinished work from that calendar keeps showing after its day has passed. Unticked, it stays on the day it was due.

Summer break

Home shows a countdown. Days-off reminders stop until school is back.

Grades from Canvas

Connect once, and each class’s grade shows in Your marks, next to your goal.

  1. In Canvas, open Account, then Settings.
  2. Press “+ New access token”, give it a name, and make it.
  3. Copy the token and paste it here.

Some schools turn this off. If there is no “+ New access token” button, yours has, and typing marks in still works.

The token stays on this device. It is only sent to fetch your grades, and is never kept anywhere else.

Sharing & simple mode
