Present is a day planner for iPhone and Android that lets you move plans around a visual day without accounts, streaks, scores, ads, or red overdue warnings.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-16 issue.

Field notes

Present describes a visual scheduling model in which plans occupy meaningful positions around the day rather than generic button-driven fields. A drag previews its consequence before release, while fixed commitments remain in place and flexible ones move; unfinished work can be stopped without turning elapsed time into a penalty. The site also shows a natural-language routine format—“Gym 1h mon wed fri”—and separates an always-free daily planner from a planned Pro view for arranging tomorrow.
