Chunk

People with ADHD, students and anyone who plans their day in blocks of time are the natural fit for Chunk, a time-blocking app that lives in the macOS menu bar.

Chunk is a time block planner for Mac that lets you lay out your day as colour-coded blocks and keep a to-do list beside them.

Because it sits in the menu bar, a click opens your schedule even when another window is running fullscreen.

Reusable templates and routines save you from rebuilding the same day every morning.

Chunk syncs with Google, Outlook and Apple calendars, so your meetings show up next to the blocks you set for yourself.

There is also a Claude AI integration that handles scheduling from plain written requests instead of manual drag and drop.

Fullscreen notifications are meant to get your attention when a block starts, which matters if a small banner is easy for you to miss.

It is a native, lightweight Mac app, so it is built for macOS only.

If you work on Windows, look elsewhere.
