A visual day planner that also records how the day went
Tiimo and Fezer share a starting conviction: a day you can see is easier to follow than a list you have to hold in your head. Tiimo builds on that with design centred on neurodivergent users and an AI planner. Fezer builds on it with a feedback loop - and no subscription.
Where Tiimo is stronger
Tiimo has been built by and for neurodivergent people from the start, with particular care for ADHD and autistic users, and that shows in the details: a gentle visual timeline, widgets that show what is next without opening the app, a focus timer designed to anchor rather than pressure, mood logging, and an AI planner that turns a brain-dump into a realistic schedule. It runs on iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, Android and the web, and reports over half a million users.
Fezer was not designed specifically around neurodivergence, has no AI assistance, no Apple Watch app and no web version. If Tiimo’s specialised design is what makes planning workable for you, that is a real reason to choose it, and this page will not pretend otherwise.
What the two apps share
Both apps reject the wall-of-text to-do list in favour of a visual day: time made concrete, the current thing made obvious. Fezer’s Now view keeps a single commitment in front of you - what is live, what is next, what is due - which is the same "reduce the day to one step" instinct that makes visual planners work for so many people.
Both also treat routines as first-class: Tiimo through its visual routines, Fezer through repeating blocks that rebuild your standing structure every morning without re-planning.
What Fezer adds: the day, recorded
Tiimo’s timeline shows the day as intended, and its focus timer helps you stay inside the current activity. What it does not keep is a record of the day as it actually ran, placed against the plan.
Fezer does. One tap begins a tracked session, checkpoints mark how the work unfolded, and Compare mode then draws planned and actual as two columns on the same hours. For anyone whose time perception runs optimistic - which is most people - that record is the difference between feeling like the day vanished and seeing exactly where it went.
A goal layer above the day
Fezer also carries structure that Tiimo’s task-and-routine model does not: fronts for the areas of your life, goals with a written end state, ordered steps, and vision boards attached to each front and goal. Steps get committed onto the schedule as deadlines or blocks of time.
The payoff arrives in the weekly analytics, where tracked time rolls up by front and goal - an honest account of which parts of your life received hours, not just which tasks got checked.
Subscription vs. free, cloud vs. device
Tiimo uses a freemium model: a free version with the essentials and a Tiimo Pro subscription for the full feature set, with cross-device sync as part of the product. That is a reasonable architecture for a multi-platform app with AI features - those things cost money to run.
Fezer is free in full, with no Pro tier, no ads and no account - possible because there is nothing server-side to fund. Everything you plan and track stays on your iPhone or iPad and is never transmitted. The cost is no sync, no watch app and no web access; the benefit is that a fairly intimate record of your days is never in anyone’s custody but yours.

Frequently asked questions
- Is Fezer designed for ADHD like Tiimo is?
- Not specifically. Fezer is a general-purpose planner. Some of its choices help anyone who loses the thread of a day - the visual timeline, the single-commitment Now view, one-tap tracking - but Tiimo’s design is purpose-built for neurodivergent users, and if that is what you need, Tiimo is the more considered choice.
- Is Fezer completely free where Tiimo has a Pro tier?
- Yes. Everything in Fezer - repeating blocks, tracking, Compare mode, goals, analytics, vision boards - is free, with no subscription, ads or in-app purchases. Fezer has no servers or AI infrastructure to fund, which is what makes that sustainable.
- Does Fezer have an AI planner?
- No. You place blocks yourself, and repeating blocks carry your routines forward automatically. Fezer’s bet is that the Compare view - seeing what actually happened against the plan - teaches realistic scheduling faster than delegating the plan.
- Does Fezer work on Apple Watch or Android?
- No. Fezer runs on iPhone and iPad only. You can request Android access from the homepage and we will let you know when there is something to try.
- Does Fezer sync between devices?
- No. Everything is stored on the device and never transmitted, so there is no sync between an iPhone and an iPad. That is the deliberate trade for keeping your data entirely in your custody.
- Can I move my Tiimo routines into Fezer?
- There is no automatic import. Most routines translate directly into repeating blocks - daily, weekdays, weekly or biweekly - and rebuilding a typical set takes a few minutes, once.
