## What is CalNote?

Your calendar, as a leather-bound planner.

CalNote turns the events in your iPhone Calendar and Reminders into a leather-bound paper planner. No handwriting or Apple Pencil needed: tap to add plans on your iPhone, and decorate big days with stickers and markers (the month page, stickers and markers are free). Your plans are saved right in the iPhone Calendar, so CalNote works alongside the calendar you already use.

PAGES YOU CAN FLIP
Open the cover and turn the pages. Paper texture, ruled lines, and the curl of the page all feel like a real planner.
- Month page (free): a whole month on one page, with all of the selected day's plans in the list below
- Two-page week: your week on a vertical timeline across two pages
- Weekly grid: seven days in large boxes
- Day page: one day, large, on a timeline
- Year page: the whole year on one sheet

WRITE RIGHT WHERE IT GOES
Tap + at the top right, or press and hold an empty spot in a month box or on a timeline to add a plan at that date and time. Save plans you use often as templates.

REMINDERS AND NOTES, TOO
- Reminders page: see today, overdue, no due date, incomplete, completed, and each list, including reminders without a due date. Pick one on the left page and it opens on the right
- Notes page: keep phone numbers, packing lists, and anything you want to look back on, with checkboxes and photos. Place the bookmark on a note to jump straight back to it

MARK THE BIG DAYS
- Stickers: add them next to a date. New designs are added the more days you open the app
- Markers: frame deadlines and big days with a highlighter and a short note
- Sticky notes: stick them on the top edge of a page and jump to that month
- Bookmark: keep your place and come back from anywhere

MAKE IT YOURS
Choose the leather color and grain, a name on the cover, paper color, ruled lines, typeface, ink color, how today is marked, and whether weeks start on Monday or Sunday. Lock the planner with Face ID or Touch ID. Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets are included.

YOUR PLANS STAY ON YOUR IPHONE
No account needed. Plans are saved in your iPhone Calendar and Reminders, notes and photos stay on this iPhone, and nothing is sent to our servers.

PRICING
The month page, Reminders page, Notes page, stickers, markers, sticky notes, bookmark, templates, and look settings are free. Premium adds the two-page week, weekly grid, day, and year pages, My Stickers, the medium and large Home Screen widgets, and the circular and inline Lock Screen widgets. Choose monthly, yearly (7-day free trial), or a one-time purchase.

## Version history (last 4 releases)

### 1.3 — 2026-10-30

- Open your iPhone Duo and turn it sideways to see a two-page spread, like an open planner. Sticky notes and the bookmark work on the spread too.
- Notes in event and reminder details now use a smaller font with tighter lines, so long notes are shown in full instead of being cut off.

### 1.2 — 2026-10-27

What's new in 1.2
- Jump to a date: press and hold the title at the top of a page to open a calendar. Pick a date to go there on the same kind of page.
- Better on iPhone Duo when it's open: buttons and the Sunday column are no longer hidden behind the clock area at the top right.
- Fixed event titles and dates in widgets sometimes being cut off with "…" even when there was room.

### 1.1 — 2026-10-21

What's new in 1.1
- Monthly List (Premium): see a month's events and reminders in date order. Press and hold a date to add stickers or a marker.
- App icon badge: show the number of reminders due today or overdue, or today's date, on the app icon (Settings > Other).
- Page buttons: show only the page buttons you use.
- Sheepskin covers, plus paper and covers that age as you use them: Worn after 7 days, Vintage after 30 (right away with Premium).
- A widget that shows your day page (large and medium, Premium).
- Timed reminders now appear at their time on the week and day pages.
- Multi-day events are drawn as one connected line on the month page.
- Share or copy your notes.
- Set up repeats on one screen. Reminder date and time are laid out like the iPhone's Reminders app, and date pickers follow your week-start setting.
- Many smaller improvements, including today's mark and faster detail cards.
