What Chunk is
Chunk is a time-block planner built specifically for macOS. The idea is simple: you divide your day into blocks, each with a task and a length, and the app keeps you moving between them. It syncs with Apple Calendar, Google Calendar and Outlook so you can see existing commitments while you plan, and you can save common layouts as templates to reuse. The app sits in the menu bar rather than demanding a window, and when a block ends a full screen reminder appears so you actually notice. It was designed with ADHD users in mind, and all task data is stored locally. There is a 7 day free trial with no credit card, then a one time payment for a lifetime licence.
What you can do with it
- Plan the day in timed blocks around real commitments.
- Pull in events from Apple, Google or Outlook calendars.
- Save repeated schedules as templates for quick reuse.
- Run instant timers and get full screen reminders.
Who it is for
- People with ADHD who need visible external structure.
- Busy professionals balancing meetings and focused work.
- Students splitting study time across several courses.
What to watch out for
It is macOS only, so anyone on Windows or Android is out of luck. After the 7 day trial you need to buy the lifetime licence, so it is not a permanently free tool. Calendar syncing across three providers takes a bit of setup and occasionally needs troubleshooting. As a small independent app, the trial terms and the one time price are current offers and can change, and long term updates depend on the developer continuing to maintain it.
