Widgets and Controls

Bunplan's widgets for the Home Screen, Lock Screen and StandBy, and its Controls for Control Center and the Action button.

This content is not available in your language yet.

Widgets show your plan and the running session at a glance. Controls start and pause the timer with a tap.

Add a widget

  1. Touch and hold an empty part of the Home Screen until the apps jiggle.
  2. Tap Edit, then Add Widget.
  3. Search for Bunplan, choose a widget and a size, and tap Add Widget.

For the Lock Screen, touch and hold the Lock Screen, tap Customize, choose the Lock Screen, then tap the area under the time.

Home Screen widgets

Widget Sizes What it shows Needs
Today Small, medium, large How much of today's plan is done, and your next tasks. The large size adds how long you've focused today and your next deadline Free
Today, interactive Small, medium, large The same, with Start on each task. Tick a task, or the first task's current step, right on the widget Plus
Deadline Small, medium Your nearest deadline: its track, how much is done, the days left and your pace Free
Focus Small The running session with Pause or Resume. Otherwise the task you left off with Continue, or Start Free

Tap any widget to open Bunplan at that place.

If you've planned nothing for today, Today says "Nothing planned for today". If no project has a date, Deadline says "Give a project a date to see its pace."

Lock Screen widgets

Widget Shapes What it shows
Today's plan Rectangular, circular, inline The running time, or your next task and how much of today's plan is done
Finished this week Circular A paw print and how many tasks you've finished this week

While Show task names on the Lock Screen is off, Lock Screen widgets leave task names out. A running session reads "Focus session". Change it in Settings → Lock Screen and Watch.

The running session also shows on the Lock Screen as a Live Activity. See Lock Screen and Dynamic Island.

StandBy

When your iPhone is charging on its side, StandBy shows the small Bunplan widgets you've added, and the Live Activity of a running session.

Controls

Controls are part of Plus.

Control What it does
Start Focus Starts a session with your usual timer
Continue last task Starts a session on the task you left off
Pause or resume Pauses the running session, or resumes it

You can put them in Control Center on iPhone and iPad, at the bottom of the Lock Screen, and on the Action button of iPhones that have one (Settings → Action Button → Controls).

On the Mac, the menu bar timer does the same job.

When Plus ends

The Today, Deadline and Focus widgets keep working. Today, interactive and Controls open Bunplan when you tap them, and start working again when you renew Plus.
