Free online schedule maker
Work schedule maker and weekly planner
Make a weekly schedule visually with drag-and-drop time blocks. This free schedule planner turns a vague week into a structured plan, and you can export to your calendar or print it out.
How to make a work schedule online
Open the weekly grid and click any hour to add a block. Drag blocks between days, pull the bottom edge to resize, and color-code each block to customize how the week reads. It works like a visual schedule builder: the whole week stays easy to scan.
Pick a template for a 9-to-5 work week or student schedule, or start from a blank week. This free schedule builder saves automatically in the browser. Export a standard .ics file for Google Calendar, Outlook, or Apple Calendar, or print a clean weekly view.
Pair this weekly planner with the Pomodoro timer to protect focus blocks, or use the meeting time zone planner when scheduling calls across regions.
Why use a visual schedule builder
A visual schedule maker turns a vague week into a concrete plan. Instead of hoping you'll find time for deep work, you block it first and fit meetings and errands around those anchors. Time blocking makes overload visible before the week runs away from you.
This schedule planner is deliberately lightweight: one weekly view, drag-and-drop editing, local browser storage, and calendar export. No account, no sync service, and no ads. Use it as a work schedule creator, personal week planner, or simple schedule organizer for small teams sketching shift patterns.
Tips for a better weekly schedule
- Block focus time before adding meetings so deep work does not get squeezed out.
- Color-code work, personal time, and breaks; a crowded day then jumps out at a glance.
- Start with a template, then adjust one day at a time instead of rebuilding the whole week.
- Recurring blocks put daily habits on the grid once, so a standup or lunch repeats without re-adding it.
- Export to your calendar once the template feels right, then treat it as a recurring weekly plan.

Frequently asked questions
Answers about this free online schedule maker, weekly planner, drag-and-drop builder, export, and print.
-
No. The schedule maker runs entirely in your browser. You do not need a Koalendar account, and your schedule data stays on your device unless you export it.
-
Open the grid, click any hour to add a block, and drag blocks to build your week. Choose a template or start blank. Your schedule saves in the browser automatically—no signup required.
-
Click any hour to add a block, drag it between days to reschedule, and pull its bottom edge to resize. Color-code blocks for focus time, meetings, and admin so the week is easy to read.
-
Yes. Your schedule saves to your browser's local storage as you edit. Return on the same browser to pick up where you left off. Clearing browser data removes the saved schedule.
-
Yes. Start from a blank week, a 9-to-5 work week with focus and meeting blocks, or a student week with classes and study sessions. Templates load into the editor so you can customize them.
-
Yes. Open the export menu in the left toolbar and choose Export image. Koalendar generates a PNG of your weekly schedule that you can share or drop into docs and slides.
-
Yes. Open Settings to choose the first day of the week, toggle weekends on or off, and adjust the visible time range and slot duration.
-
Yes. Mark a block as recurring and it appears at the same time every day, which works for habits like a morning standup, lunch, or a daily focus session. Export to your calendar to repeat the pattern each week.
-
Yes for sketching a work week or a simple shift pattern for a small team. It's one visual planner, not multi-employee rota software, so it doesn't track staff availability, roles, or auto-assign shifts.
-
Yes. Download the .ics file and import it into Google Calendar, Outlook, Apple Calendar, or any app that supports the iCalendar format. Exported blocks repeat weekly on the day you placed them.
-
Yes. Use the Print button to open a printer-friendly weekly view. Print styles hide editing controls so the grid is easy to read on paper.
