  • Daily planner/Bullet Journal

    I love this app. I use it as my daily planner/ bullet journal. It’s helped me be so much more prepared for the day and very productive. I’ve come up with a layout that’s perfect for my needs. Of course there are quirks and bugs but the support team is pretty quick in fixing them so far. I’ve been using the app since the beginning of the year. One thing I would like would be a he ability to create sub folders inside of projects. For instance, with me using Agenda as a daily planner I create a plan for every day. I would like to when I finish whatever month I’ve completed to put that month into a folder labeled after that month. I hope that makes sense (lol)I think that would extremely helpful. Other than that great app!

  • Works like my own mind!

    This was so easy to learn. I dumped everything swirling around in my mind into notes and it’s organized like a timeline! Very little effort. I am even make notes for a future date as a “to do”. Such a relief to have it out of my head and stored on my Mac, my iPhone and my iPad. The best anti-anxiety remedy! Instantaneous syncing so I’m good to go from one device to another on the fly. The text styling is wonderful. Make a text note or a checklist, bold or italicized. Love the Calendar sync. I can plan in real time with my other commitments. I bought the full program and don’t regret it at all. Looking forward to future developments.

  • Brilliant, simple, beautiful, fascinating

    This changed the way I think about projects and access information. It makes notes smart with a cleverly simple twist. It’s more powerful than attaching a date to a note; it teaches me to think more about how notes relate to each other as I create them, assign them to past and future days and link them to each other. The Agenda view is excellent and the app is superbly designed (the dark theme is gorgeous). It’s a top-class app in terms of performance and polish. Yet, I think its best feature is that it quietly nudges my note-taking habits away from one-off thoughts and toward connected, progressive ideas. It makes all the difference.

    Thanks! Great review.
  • Life changing at work

    Overall, I’m thrilled to have this app!!!!!! Nothing else is like it exists (linking note taking to calendar events) and it’s an indispensable for keeping my work organized. I am more than happy to pay for this application and I love not being forced into subscription pricing!! That said, I hope the iOS version eventually gets to the same level of polish as the Mac version....

    The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is because text entry on iOS is frustratingly inferior to the Mac version of Agenda. For example, I am constantly recorrecting style assignments that render incorrectly or seem to change on their own, and simple things like setting my text insertion point at the end of a line (using touch) is crazy hard. I fear these iOS shortcoming are so fundamental that they threaten Agenda’s long-term survival. If I hadn’t tried the Mac version first and experienced what the developers were capable of, I would have given up on the iOS version by now over text manipulation and rendering problems. Because I mainly live on an iPad, I hope I don’t have to suffer this silliness much longer.

  • Pretty decent but buggy

    I like the concept and the pricing model. But it's definitely bugger than average in general and super buggy when used with SwiftKey. I'm not sure what kind of non standard stuff they're adding to their text fields, but it's the only app I've ever had problems like that using SwiftKey. The autocorrect is completely bonkers, it will straight up refuse to output some of the keystrokes I enter (like "..." For instance... It will only let me add one single period 😅).

    I'd most likely pay for this app, but as it is, I'm considering un installing it instead.

    Bummer!

  • A great app or project and program managers

    This app was a recommendation from a host on Macbreak Weekly. I use Agenda when I’m really trying to focus on some client issues and need to have a repository for referring to things. Agenda has often times shown me when I need to incorporate a company wide means of communicating and I do a lot of prototyping here. As an example I used to create weekly roundup for client and then the most immediate things would go into a master doc and ultimately that master doc went from being an email and is now a shared company document where my team works to deal with the most pressing issues. Agenda helps me to focus.

  • Exciting!

    I really love this app. I’d been dreaming of something & I think this is it. iPhone was so basic upon first arrival & Apple has done a wonderful job sticking to simplicity. That said I felt it was time to ratch it up a notch when it comes to productivity as I felt so pulled apart when trying to move from calendar to notes back to calendar then over to reminders. I fell like this work, to bring this tools together while still having independent uses for each, while also trying into built in apps (like adding to calendar) is unprecedented in iOS. This app rocks! Kudos I hope apple buys your framework & just integrates it.

  • More and more impressed

    I have to wonder if the people who are giving bad reviews took enough time to learn to use the app. At first I was not impressed and did not understand the brilliance of Agenda. I even deleted it thinking it had nothing special to offer. After a few days of wondering why it got an Apple award I figured I must have missed something. So I downloaded it again for a second look.

    I'm so glad I did. The app is really amazing. The features and syncing you get for free will be more than enough for most users. Paying for the upgrade, a one time purchase, will help support ongoing development.

    Agenda's approach is unique and you'll need to spend a little time with it to see its genius. After initially feeling it had nothing to offer I now have it installed on my mac, iPad, and iPhone. I'm using it for my notes, shopping lists, research notes, and journal. Oh, and yes, for my agenda.

    I'm looking forward to seeing how it continues to develop. I haven't been this intrigued or felt such promise for an app in a long time.

    Glad you gave us a second chance!
  • Unique but needs one feature

    Agenda is unique among App Store apps. I have been searching for a calendar based note taking application for a while and Agenda is the only one that I have found that comes close. There is a need out there for it and Agenda addresses that need. However one of the features that I and others have been wanting is support for Apple Pencil and handwritten notes. The ability to add handwritten notes would make it so much more useful to me. I like the app but I doubt I will invest any more in it until support for Apple Pencil has been added.

  • Promising, but still needs lots of work.

    This is a very promising app. It allows you to create and organize notes and sync them with your calendar. This last feature, which is a premium feature, is really useful. However, at this time the functionality is limited and some really basic features are missing. There is currently no way to include images or files, although the developers have promised this as an upcoming feature. The last thing is that it seems the developers are only focused on the Apple ecosystem. It would be nice to have an OS independent Web interface, but I do not know if one is being planned. Despite these shortcoming, I plan to keep using it and hope the app will mature to fulfill its potential.

    You can delete projects by swiping them like in Mail. Tap the three dots button that appears, and delete is an option in there.
