Is there some app that combines a standard checklist and an hourly agenda? As in, I would like to be able to make a checklist, but give each item a duration, and then block them out into my calendar. Everything I find either uses fixed 30-minute blocks on the calendar (Google Tasks), or has no integration with a checklist at all. All of my tasks can be in a checklist, but not all of them necessarily fit onto a calendar or need to be scheduled right away, and having the two lists separated drives me crazy.

TickTick can add tasks to a calendar but is not a calendar manager so won't do events. This is what I primarily use, the devs push frequent updates which I appreciate.

Opus One does tasks and events in calendar.

Fantastical can also integrate with Todosit to do tasks in the calendar but I found the sync to be slow.

acreom does exactly what you described and more. You can have your notes there together with tasks that can be scheduled for any time interval or just a single point in time (it also supports repeating tasks) using either calendar or by just typing it out in note using natural language (e.g. do yoga every other day at 7am). You can then group them by note they are in, labels or date. It also has daily note and a review feature where it shows all the overdue tasks plus the tasks for today on top of the daily note.

I have used Fantastical 2 with Google Calendar and reminders for years to do this and it works amazingly. It does exactly what the LPT suggests.

Reminders are set to a certain time float to another day if not completed. They are shown alongside Calendar events and can be sorted by list and different sets of lists / calendars can be activated at different locations.

I like the quick-add feature, too, if you type “lunch with mom” it automatically sets time to 12pm.
