What we think about the Design of Timestripe?

Timestripe is an interesting application in terms of design. It has some features that allow you to be a bit more creative and make it your own. Customizing your boards and areas in Pro is very nice, but largely the design is minimal and simple, nice but not wow.

What is Timestripe?

Timestripe is a daily planner app designed to manage tasks & calendars in one.

It is popular for long-term planning as you can open tasks in day, week, month, year, and 5-30-year views. Many people find this perfect for co-ordinating focus for goal planning. It comes on a range of devices.

How does Timestripe work?

Timestripe works by not focusing on just your goals for today and the week.

Goal planning is the name of the game inside Timestripe. You can plan the day ahead but also consider how that day affects the week, the month, the year, and onwards. This makes it a perfect combination of task planning and goal planning.

Tools like Sunsama have similar features, like weekly objectives, but Timestripe helps you plan for the future from the ground up. Having tasks (goals) in mind, like your monthly goals, enables you to plan your weekly goals more accordingly.

Using Timestripe can take some time. Some features allow you to plan the week, but boards allow you to plan projects and workload statically. Boards in Timestripe can be copied from the community or started from scratch, separating tasks into list-like areas for better, more aligned planning.

A smart feature in Timestripe is Climbs, which, alongside task and goal management, allows you to weave in habits that might help you be a better person daily.

Best Timestripe Features

Here are some of the features that make Timestripe tick as a task app:

Features	Helpful for
Task Management	Basic task management in Timestripe allows you to plan for the week, month, year, and day. This allows for a better way to see things alongside each other. Working like many other task management systems, you can also in the day view see a calendar view that allows you to time-block for your day.
Goal Planning	Zoomed-out task management is something many people flock to Timestripe for and it is one of the best bits. Being able to see your goals and sub-goals that can be added to your goals next to your longer-term goals allows you to plan and zoom out of things you're working on - always asking yourself "Is this what I should be focusing on?".
Habit Tracking	Climbs, a feature in Timestripe, allows you to plan your goals. This allows you to copy habits, or create your habits, from a gallery area perfect for starting to implement healthy habits like exercises, meditation, and new skills. This isn't a habit-tracking app but it will allow you to manage habits that you add in there.

Pros:

Better for planning holistically
Designed for goal-focused task management

Cons:

Not as smooth to use as apps like Todoist or Akiflow
Can be overwhelming to see goals next to tasks

Timestripe Pros

Pros	Reasons
Great for daily planning	Timestripe is easy to use for daily planning. You can add your tasks in and see a calendar view of the day ahead and whilst this doesn't connect with Google Calendar, which is a shame, it will allow you to see what's ahead for the day that other task management apps just don't get.
Perfect for holistic planners	A holistic view of your tasks will better your approach to getting things done and those who need that will love it. The ability to just see your monthly goals next to your weekly goals has such an impact on how you plan. That trickle-down effect of planning means you can better align those days with weeks, those weeks with months and that can make a difference.
Boards allow for static work	At first, we didn't like the board features, but they are very useful for planning work. They allow you to plan those goals that aren't time associated allowing you to break them into columns like a Kanban-board style approach.

Timestripe Cons

There are some bad things that we didn't like about Timestripe and here they are:

Cons	Reasons
Climbs can be annoying	One of the benefits of climbs is that you can weave habits into your daily routine. This can be good, but removing them can be a pain, as sometimes a large number of tasks are added when you might need a lot less. You can stop a climb and delete it in bulk, but removing the intensity of it is harder.
Too intense for some people	For many people, this level of planning might be too much for them. If you're not the type of person that would reflect on goals every few weeks for the month, this tool might not be for you.
