component
- Agenda view
The same events as a chronological list grouped by day, so the next thing is at the top instead of somewhere inside a grid.
- Calendar
A month grid of dates that can be read, navigated and selected from, whether standing alone or living inside a date field.
- Complication
A slot on a watch face filled with one live figure from an app, sized to be read in the second a wrist is raised.
- Contribution graph
A year of days as a grid of week columns, each cell shaded by how much happened that day, so a habit reads as a pattern instead of a number.
- Date picker
A field that opens a small calendar so a date can be chosen by looking at the month rather than typing it.
- Date range picker
A calendar that takes a start and an end date in one pass, highlighting the span between them as you move.
- Gantt chart
One row per task with a bar along a time axis, the bar showing when the work runs and lines between bars showing what waits for what.
- Relative timestamp
A time printed as a distance from now, two hours ago or in three days, updating itself and holding the exact time in its tooltip.
- Scheduler
A grid of days crossed with hours where each event is a block in its own slot, so a week's free time is visible and an event is moved by dragging it.
- Scrubber
The seek control of a media player: a track showing elapsed and buffered time with a playhead you drag to move through it.
- Time picker
A control for choosing a time of day, either as a dial you tap around or as hour and minute lists.
- Timeline
A vertical or horizontal line of dated events, each pinned to the line by a marker and reading in order.
- Trace viewer
The view that lays a request's spans on one time axis, each nested under the span that called it, so the bar that is too long or starts too late is the finding.
pattern
- Activity feed
A reverse chronological list of things that happened, each entry naming an actor, a verb, and an object, grouped when many are alike.
- Countdown timer
A running clock attached to an offer or a held resource, showing how long remains and what will happen when it reaches zero.
- Fake urgency
Presenting a deadline that does not exist, usually a timer that resets on reload, so the reader hurries a decision they had time to make.
- Recurring event
An event stored once as a rule instead of as copies, so every second Tuesday can be edited, skipped for one week, or ended, without touching the rest.
- Streak
A count of consecutive periods in which the reader did the thing, displayed prominently and lost if a period is missed.
- Time zone display
Whose clock a time is shown on, the reader's or the event's, and saying which, because a time with no zone beside it is a meeting somebody is going to miss.
interaction
- Scrubbing
Dragging a playhead along a timeline to move through media by hand, previewing frames as the position changes rather than waiting for playback.
