Daily ADHD Planner

How to Manage Your Daily Tasks Efficiently with the xTiles Daily ADHD Planner

In this section, we will take a look at technical aspects of using the xTiles Daily Planner for ADHD and provide a few tips on how to optimize the process and increase your productivity.

Let’s start with the customization. You may have your favorite color, or colors you know help you focus. Hover the cursor over the tile header and press a button with a brush. Then, choose the tile style and color from the menu, whether you prefer bright colors or neutral ones. Also, you can assign different colors to tiles, or keep your planner within one color palette. Repeat this with all the tiles on the page. You can choose a different color for every tile if you want colors to serve as your navigator whenever you open the planner.

Customization doesn’t end with tile colors. You can also change the tab color using the three-dot menu and you can change the cover to a picture you like. Hover the cursor over the cover and press “change cover” in the lower right corner. Then, choose a picture or photo you like.

The xTiles planner is a one-pager with a markup for hours. Simply add a daily task when you need to do it. For example, at 12 pm you’re having a meeting with your manager to plan a month ahead for your team, or you’re having a dentist appointment. Simply add this task to the relevant hour. When the task is done, you can strike through the text by selecting the task and choosing the needed option from the menu that will appear. Another option to mark your task as done is to add a colorful banner. Select the text, and choose the relevant option from the menu.

Also, you can use this approach to prioritize your tasks. Create a color coding system where every priority has its color for quicker navigation in your planner. You can even add a new tile with a map to remember everything when you only start.

Additionally, your tasks can be much more than a text in your to-do list. You can create tasks that will appear in your calendar and a separate menu bar accessible from anywhere in xTiles (a checkmark button left to your avatar) menu where you can track everything. This way, you will get reminders to remember that it’s time to do something that was planned.

The planner also has a bullet list for tasks that can be done anytime or you can use this section as a brain dump for a day adding important items that might need your attention later, and then for planning the next day. 

The xTiles planner consists of one page to avoid elements accumulation within your daily planning. However, if you want, you can add more tiles (use the side panel menu to your left) or even a blank page for planning a week, quick notes, information storing, etc. Just click on the “+” button right to the current tab.

If you want to add more pages to your daily planner to ensure you don’t have to prepare your planner all over again every day, press the three-dot menu on the tab, and choose “Copy to clipboard.” Then, press the “+” button and choose “Paste page.” Repeat this action 6 more times to get 7 pages.

If you use the xTiles Mobile app, you can have quick access to your planner from your smartphone. This is the quickest bridge to your tasks while you’re on the go. Add new tasks and mark them as complete and write down important information. Also, you can use the mobile app as your web clipper, by sending important information directly to your xTiles Inbox, which will be synchronized with your desktop version. Just select the text or element on the page you want to save, press share, and choose xTiles.
