How Wannado Works

From activities to time tracking, learn how to organize your goals and track your progress

Wannado is a personal productivity app that helps you combine what you want to do, when you plan to do it, and how much time you actually invest. Unlike traditional to-do lists, Wannado connects your activities with a recurring weekly schedule and automatic time tracking—all in one place, offline-first.

The Building Blocks

Every activity in Wannado is built from three core components:

📝

Activities & Notes

Start by creating an activity (e.g., 'Learn Guitar', 'Write Novel', 'Study Math'). Give it an emoji, title, color, and achievement description. Add rich notes to capture ideas, progress, or next steps.

✅

Tasks

Break your activity into concrete tasks. Each task can have a due date, time estimate, and budget. Mark tasks as done as you complete them, and track the work sessions invested in each.

📅

Weekly Schedule

Define recurring time blocks (e.g., 'Monday and Wednesday, 9 AM–11 AM') when you plan to work on this activity. Weekly times act as your visual calendar commitment and help the scheduler auto-generate your daily plan.

How Wannado Stores Your Progress

At the data level, every activity contains the same structure so tracking stays consistent over time:

Activity

Identity and planning context: avatar, title, color, achievement, label, daily session goal, weekly goal, and monthly guide.

Tasks + Weekly Schedule + Notes

Execution plan: tasks for concrete outcomes, notes for context, and weekly schedule times to define when in the week you should work on that activity.

Work Records

Evidence of effort: every timer session or manual entry creates a work record with start, end, and minutes worked. Those records feed your goals, Progress and the Copilot.

Understanding Session Length, Goals & Pace

Wannado helps you set and track work pace at three levels:

Daily Session Goal

Set a target duration for a work session (e.g., 1 hour per day). This helps you commit to focused blocks without overload.

Weekly Goal

Define a weekly target in hours (e.g., 10 hours per week). This becomes your main pace metric, visible in Progress and the pace indicator.

Monthly Guide

Automatically computed from your weekly goal (weekly ÷ 7 × 30). Gives a long-term projection to help you plan quarterly milestones.

Your Pace

On Home and in Progress, you'll see the pace indicator:

>>>>> (full) | >>>>> (partial) | >>>>> (empty)

The more ">" symbols shown, the closer you are to your weekly goal. This visual gives you instant feedback on your pace.

The User Workflow: Step by Step

Step 1: Create Your Activity

Tap the '+' button to add a new activity. Choose an emoji (🎯 🎸 📚), give it a title and color. Optionally assign a label (Trabajo, Studio, Lifestyle, or Others) for better filtering. Set your daily session goal and weekly hour target.

Create activity workflow

Step 2: Add Tasks & Notes

Inside the activity, add concrete tasks ('Learn C chord', 'Record practice session'). Optionally schedule them with date/time and set a time estimate. Add activity notes to capture goals, tips, or progress updates. Notes can be rearranged and edited anytime.

Add notes to activity

Step 3: Set Up Your Weekly Schedule

Create recurring weekly times for your activity (e.g., 'Monday & Wednesday, 6 PM–7 PM'). These weekly times appear on your calendar and help the app auto-generate your daily plan by suggesting tasks during available time windows.

Set up weekly schedule

Step 4: Record Your Work

Start work on a task by tapping the ▶ button to launch the countdown timer. Set a duration ('1 hour', '30 minutes') and let it count down. When done, the app records a session with your start time, end time, and minutes invested. Alternatively, add manual work entries using the clock picker to select a custom start time and duration.

Step 5: Review Your Progress

Check the Progress tab to see a heatmap of work by day, your weekly/monthly totals against goals, and breakdowns by activity. Use filters to focus on specific activities or labels (Trabajo, Studio, Lifestyle). The pace indicator shows you at a glance if you're on pace.

  4. Review & Act: Read the suggestion in the IA tab, apply insights to your activities, and come back next time the cooldown expires for fresh feedback.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is session length calculated? ▼

Session length is the ratio of hours worked in the current week to your weekly goal. If your goal is 10 hours and you've worked 7 hours so far, you're at 70% of your target. The pulse indicator (>>>>>) updates daily as you log work.

Can I share an activity with a friend or team? ▼

Yes! You can share an activity by email. Existing Wannado users will be invited as editors; new users will receive a pending invite. Once they accept, all tasks, weekly schedule, and work history are visible to both of you in real-time.

What happens if I go offline? ▼

Wannado is 100% offline-first. All your activities, tasks, weekly schedule, and work records are stored locally on your device. You can work completely offline with no loss of functionality. When you reconnect and sign in, Wannado automatically syncs your data with Firebase in the background.

How do I export or backup my data? ▼

Go to Settings > Export/Import. You can download your entire database as a JSON file. Automatic backups are also created before each import. You can store backups on cloud storage (Google Drive, Dropbox) for additional safety.

Can I change languages or use Wannado in Spanish? ▼

Yes! The app supports both English and Spanish. You can switch languages anytime from Settings without losing any data. The Wannado website also supports EN/ES.

How does the AI Copilot activation gate work? ▼

To unlock the AI Copilot, you must meet two thresholds: (1) Use Wannado for at least 7 days, and (2) Log at least 70 hours of work across all activities. Once both are met, the IA tab unlocks and you can start using it. The gate ensures you have meaningful data before suggestions begin.

Is Wannado really free? ▼

Yes! All core features (activities, tasks, scheduling, timer, stats, AI Copilot) are free forever on the web. Android Pro adds extended AI usage, notifications and sync for USD 20/year or USD 2/month (2026 promo, regular USD 50/year · USD 5/month). AI usage limits depend on the user's profile, plan and corporate usage, so we can offer the best experience while keeping AI service costs low. You'll never be forced to upgrade.
