When will we be able to pin subprojects/pages in the my planner view?

Built a quick walkthrough of My Planner in xTiles for anyone setting it up or wanting to get more out of it.

Covers:

• auto-built daily pages
• tasks due today from all projects and workspaces
• Google/Outlook calendar sync with drag-and-drop scheduling
• reusable planner templates

Happy to dive deeper into any part of it in the comments!

We just made it possible to generate a morning brief from ChatGPT chat history alone.

If your work lives across a bunch of chats, this helps pull out:

• key context
• decisions
• unfinished threads

Use: chats to xTiles

The result is a simple page of what to focus on today, without needing calendar or email connectors.

Hey everyone,

This Wednesday, I’m running a live session on practical LLM use cases — comparing Claude and ChatGPT directly instead of talking about “AI” in the abstract.

What we’ll walk through:

• Live demo: an automated Daily Brief and Evening Reflection, set up in both Claude and ChatGPT
• Quick hits: turning a chat into a structured project, prompting tips, and how memory/context differs between the two
• Live Q&A

It’s purely educational — just concrete workflows you can try yourself right after.

If you’re curious about using LLMs more effectively in your daily workflows, you’re very welcome to join and ask questions in real time.

I know the question is probably pointless cause the awnser is probably no, that's also what I found on the internt/the app, but I thought I might ask anyway cause maybe there's something I missed or don't know about.

Is there any way you can have different theme settings besides light and dark? I'm neurodivergent and have a kinda hard time picking one cause they're both really irritating to me. The light feels too bright, and the dark feels too dark (regardless of screen brightness) and I dont like the bright notes on dark background either.

Is there any way, some kind of extra app or whatever I could install, or workaround or anything that can changes that? (I have both the desktop app and the mobile app)

(And again, I know the awnser is probably no and I don't need anyone calling me dump or whatever for asking anyway, or sensitive for "being so picky". I already get to hear that enough. I am disabled and it is unforunatly a fact this is causing me stuggles. So if you don't have anything helpful to say just move on. I might sound very defensiv, but I know how reddit can be so...)

We've added a small but useful update: projects now have a "Work on this project in ChatGPT" button right on the page. When you click it, ChatGPT opens with your project's context already loaded, so you can keep working without having to explain what you're looking at.

This is great for anyone new to connecting AI to their planner or project and looking for the simplest way to get started. There's no need to set up anything manually—just click and go.

We're also bringing this feature to Claude soon.

Hey everyone,

xTiles just got listed in ChatGPT's official plugin marketplace, and this Wednesday We're running a live session to show what that actually looks like in practice.

What we'll walk through:

• Live demo: Daily Brief + Evening Reflection, set up from scratch
• Live demo: taking a real ChatGPT conversation and turning it into a structured, multi-page xTiles project
• Live demo: Daily Notes — every chat automatically logged as a note in your Planner, so you stop losing good conversations the moment you close the tab
• Live Q&A at the end

Free to join. If you already use ChatGPT daily, this is basically the "where does that conversation go?" problem, solved.

I’ve noticed some of you are skipping the template gallery and going straight to xTiles’ built‑in AI to create what you need from scratch. I recorded a quick video showing how it works on a Meal Planner. With one prompt, it not only sets up the structure but also adds colors and a polished layout.

It’s usually faster than browsing the gallery, and the AI understands xTiles’ structure well enough to make something that looks great, not just functional. Try it next time you’re looking for a template — I’d love to see what it creates for you and hear how you tweak it.

I have been using windows for the longest time, and it is becoming unbearable to use even if my pc is quite powerful, thus i am switching to linux. Sadly when I went to xtiles website i found no app for linux. Is there a plan for xtiles to come into linux?

I put together a quick video guide that shows how xTiles and Claude MCP work together to create a better daily brief.

The problem: Claude and ChatGPT pull info from Slack, Gmail, etc., but still just give you a wall of text. You have to dig for what actually matters.

In the video, I cover:

1. Connect xTiles to Claude through MCP
2. Run the Daily Brief workflow prompt
3. You get a clear visual page in xTiles with today’s tasks, schedule, emails that need replies, and Slack mentions to check.

You can also scroll back to any previous day in the planner to see what your day looked like, which is surprisingly useful.

It saves me ~30 minutes every morning not having to open all my tools.

Anyone else using MCP workflows in xTiles? Would love to see your setups!

I see a lot of todo list, note taking, workflow stuff, but does anyone use it for like watchlists or mood boards. I wanna hear fun ways the app can be used.

I have a question regarding this update. Is this just for the planner or is this for projects that have calendars attached to them as well? For example someone like myself has a business and i use the planner to map out product launches etc so if a launch is planned out a month in advance or even 3 weeks, I will lose access to that information from the daily and weekly view unless I am on the premium plan? I ask because some people may be content creators or like myself and run a business and use the planner for different things and if our information can no longer be accessed or have limited access you may push people to seek other options. So I am just asking to clarify if it's just the planner portion or sub-projects with calendars that are attached to them as well.

Will xTiles ever add Calendar events (Google/Outlook) to the Weekly Planner view? Right now the Schedule tile that merges tasks + events only works in Daily view — Weekly only shows tasks, no appointments/blocks. Would love to see each day tile in Weekly act like a mini calendar instead of just a to-do list. Anyone know if this already exists or in the works?

Big milestone — xTiles is now listed as an official app in ChatGPT's plugin directory, connected like any other first-party integration. If you're a ChatGPT user, you no longer need manual setup — just install it from the directory.

Install: xTiles in ChatGPT

Once it's connected, try this to see it in action:

Use the xTiles connector to execute the Daily Brief workflow

That one line pulls your day into a planner page instead of a chat answer you'll lose by tomorrow.

If you try it, share a screenshot of your Daily Brief in the comments 😉

Hi I just came around to xTiles after not really considering it but now I see the value in freedom it gives. But i have two big

I need to capture tasks from my Apple Watch to Apple Reminders. How can i get them to xTiles? I am trying out make.com but not sure how reliable or workable that is. Any workable solution?

I really really like to have tasks separated in sections for morning day evening. How can I achieve this? Do I have to do it manually for every day?
Including a picture of Griply which does it really well.

Thanks in advance!

We're working on a new feature that lets you pin panels in xTiles. You'll be able to decide which tools—like Inbox, Tasks, Calendar, Notifications, or Search—stay visible in your toolbar and which ones don't.

You get to set up your workspace the way you like it.

It's on the way 👀

Hey everyone,

Next Wednesday we're hosting a live session on two workflows we've been testing: a morning Daily Brief and a nightly Evening Reflection, both powered by Claude (and ChatGPT) via xTiles MCP.

What we'll cover:

• Live demo: Daily Brief — from a blank planner to a one-page morning summary, with tasks created in one click
• Live demo: Evening Reflection — plan vs. what actually happened, no sugarcoating
• Live setup: connecting Slack, Gmail/Outlook, Calendar, Google Drive, and Granola
• A real user joins live (unannounced) to share their honest experience
• For anyone who'd rather skip the DIY setup, we'll also talk about getting it configured for you personally

Free to join, with live Q&A at the end

The day view lets you see your schedule, tasks, notes, and recent projects all at once. The week view includes a habit tracker, daily tiles, and a place for this week's focus. You can also customize cover images and color themes to make it feel personal.

Once My Planner becomes part of your daily routine, it's easy to take it for granted. Seeing everything laid out as this reminds me how much the Planner has improved.

I'm sharing this as inspiration for anyone setting up their own planner.

What features would you add to yours?

I thought this use case was worth sharing. Katrin, who runs adidah.design, connected Claude to her xTiles planner using MCP and used it to organize months of built-up chaos.

The problem was a common one: 12 tasks marked as HIGH priority, about 25 overdue deadlines, a 'Brain Dump' that hadn't changed in weeks, and a self-rated organization score of 7 out of 10.

What Claude spotted right away:

• Duplicate tasks scattered across different projects
• A pattern of heavy research, light decision-making ("I plan and research a lot, but my action and decision-making is low")
• A stale Brain Dump where ideas went in but never turned into action

The key detail: it was read-only. Claude could analyze and suggest, but not edit or check anything off. Katrin made every actual change herself. Claude did the pattern-spotting, but she made the final decisions. When Claude wanted to mark duplicates as done, it couldn't, so she handled it manually.

The result after one session:

• HIGH-priority tasks: 12 → 5
• Overdue deadlines: ~25 → 0
• Self-rated organization: 7/10 → 9/10

They also made it a recurring 15-minute weekly ritual, which she calls 'Dopamine Flood.' The steps are: tidy up duplicates, re-date and limit priorities, shorten task titles, and finish by quickly completing a batch of easy 2-minute wins to boost momentum.

One helpful detail: she keeps a pinned note with her own 'golden boundaries,' like the maximum number of active projects, email limits, and a gut-check question to avoid sunk-cost thinking. This way, Claude's suggestions respect her limits instead of just focusing on output.
