DeskPlanFour urgency zones. One clear next step.
AT HOME ON YOUR DESKTOP
Made to stay quietly in view.
The planner sits above your desktop and below other apps. Adjust the background and text transparency separately. Keep it fixed in a corner, or shrink it to the current task and the next two.
Give today some breathing room.
Pick up to three priorities for Today. Arrange the week with time estimates; planned dates stay separate from deadlines.
See what needs attention.
Four colors show urgency. Soon tasks with 48 hours or less remaining automatically appear in Now.
Keep your data close.
No account, no ads, no telemetry. Tasks stay on your computer, with rolling backups and JSON / CSV export.

A few useful details.
Is this a cloud service?
No. This is a desktop app. Task data is local; there is no cloud sync or account. GitHub is contacted for enabled update checks and downloads.
Does it move or upload my files?
No. Attachments are links to files and folders already on your computer. Backups contain paths, not the original files.
Can I use Chinese?
Yes. Switch between English and Simplified Chinese in Settings. Your task content stays in the language you wrote it.
How do I update an older version?
Versions 1.0.10 and earlier need one manual installation after the repository rename. Install over the old version to retain data. Newer versions support downloading updates in the app.
