The Daily view provides a calendar-style visualization of your activities, organized by custom categories you define. It transforms your timeline into an actionable workflow overview.
The Daily view requires an access code to unlock. This feature is currently in beta.

​
What is the Daily View?

The Daily view displays your activities in a grid format, showing:
  • Time blocks from 9 AM to 9 PM (configurable)
  • Color-coded categories for different types of work
  • Activity distribution across your day
  • Workflow statistics and insights

​
Categories

Categories help you organize and visualize how you spend your time:

​
Default Categories

Dayflow includes four default categories:
  • Work (Purple) - Professional tasks and focused work
  • Personal (Blue) - Personal activities and life admin
  • Distraction (Red) - Context switches and interruptions
  • Idle (Gray) - Breaks and inactive time

​
Custom Categories

You can create and customize categories to match your workflow:
  1. Click the Settings icon in the sidebar
  2. Navigate to the categories section
  3. Add, edit, or organize your categories
  4. Assign colors to visually distinguish each category

​
Standup Summaries

The Daily view can generate AI-powered standup summaries of your day:

​
What’s Included

  • High-level overview of your activities
  • Key accomplishments extracted from your timeline
  • Time distribution across categories
  • Focus periods and context switches

​
Generating a Summary

1

Select a date

Navigate to the day you want to summarize using the date controls
2

Generate standup

Click the Generate Standup button at the top of the Daily view
3

Review and copy

Review the AI-generated summary and click Copy to use it in your standup or notes
Standup generation requires an active AI provider (Gemini, Local, or ChatGPT/Claude) to be configured.

​
Workflow Statistics

The Daily view displays real-time statistics about your workday:
  • Total active time - Hours spent on activities (excluding idle time)
  • Category breakdown - Percentage of time in each category
  • Focus score - Measure of sustained concentration vs. context switching
  • Peak productivity hours - When you were most active

​
Timeline Window

The Daily view shows a visual timeline at the bottom, highlighting:
  • Activity density throughout the day
  • Category transitions (where you switched tasks)
  • Gaps and breaks in your workflow
Click any time block to jump to that period in the timeline.

​
Use Cases

​
Track Deep Work vs. Meetings

Use categories to distinguish between focused work and collaborative time, helping you balance maker vs. manager schedules.

​
Identify Context Switching

Visualize when you switch between different types of work to identify interruption patterns.

​
Prepare for Standups

Generate concise, accurate standup summaries in seconds rather than trying to recall your day from memory.

​
Optimize Your Schedule

Review weekly patterns to identify your most productive hours and schedule important work accordingly.

​
