Scheduling
Maximum Block Duration
- The longest single work session the scheduler will create (default: 2 hours)
- Longer tasks are split into multiple sessions — unless marked "do not split," in which case they're kept whole
Buffer Between Tasks
- Optional break inserted between consecutive blocks (off by default; 5-60 minutes)
Default Time Window
- The time window assigned to new tasks unless you pick another
How Samvise Schedules
- Blocks are placed inside the task's assigned time window
- Higher-priority tasks are scheduled first; overdue tasks get top priority
- Scheduling starts from the next full hour
Timezone
- Critical for accurate scheduling — all times are interpreted in your timezone
- Changing it updates your schedule automatically
