Timeline day planner
Flint vs Structured
Structured is one of the most-downloaded day planners on the App Store: a single vertical timeline where every task gets a time and an icon. It is beautiful and simple. Flint is aimed squarely at ADHD executive function — the messy part before the timeline exists. You dump everything, Flint helps you extract the tasks worth keeping, you check in on your energy, and only then do you build a day that actually fits.
The short answer
Structured is great if you already know what your day contains. Flint is better if deciding what the day should contain is the hard part.
