Weekly and daily planning are the short routines that turn your quarterly plan into what you actually do. This walkthrough covers setting your reminders, then planning a week and a day. Watch below, or read the written steps that follow.

Weekly and daily planning in Sonto

The guided planning flow is currently a Mac feature. On iPhone you can view and schedule your day and week, but the guided flow itself isn’t available there yet.

​
Set when you’re reminded

Open Settings → Planning. Here you choose when Sonto nudges you:
  • Daily — by default on weekdays at 9am, not at weekends.
  • Weekly — pick a day that suits you (the default is Friday).
The nudge appears both as a reminder at the top of the app and as a system notification — so even when Sonto isn’t running, you’ll get a prompt, and clicking it drops you straight into planning. When a reminder appears you can start planning, or snooze it for a day, dismiss it for the whole week, change the settings, or cancel.

Plan your week

1

Review last week

Sonto surfaces what’s still open from last week. Jump over to see everything you completed if you like, then add a short reflection on how the week went.
2

Set your intention and pull work in

Say what this week is about. Then bring in the work: drag items from anywhere, or schedule tasks for the week. You can pull from your active quarterly plan so the week moves your bigger goals forward.
3

Right-size the week

If you’ve planned a lot, Sonto gently points it out — a cue to add priorities or trim. Flag the handful of tasks that matter most so they stand out.
4

Put key work on the calendar

The last step invites you to block time and, where you can, assign tasks to specific days. You won’t always know the day yet — that’s fine, leave those for later. Click I am done and your week is ready.
Because you’ve just planned the week, Sonto notices the next day isn’t planned yet and offers to plan it too — say yes to roll straight into daily planning.

​
Plan your day

1

Review today

See what’s still open and add a quick reflection.
2

Choose tomorrow's tasks

Today’s unfinished tasks can be carried forward automatically. On the right you’ll find this week’s tasks, your active quarterly plan, your inbox, and your calendar — pull whatever’s relevant onto the day.
3

Schedule it

Lay the day out in time, blocking the calendar for your bigger tasks. Click Done and you land on the day, tasks and schedule in place.
A small tab marks whether a day or week is planned. See a blank one — next week, say — and you can click it to plan ahead whenever you like.
