A daily planner that picks the one thing that matters today. Firstcall reads your calendar, protects time for it, and keeps household jobs and home upkeep from slipping. Most planners hand you a longer list. Firstcall does the opposite — it distils your whole day into one clear call and a few critical moves, so you start with what actually matters and nothing important slips. ONE CLEAR CALL EACH MORNING • A calm morning brief names the single thing to start with — and the goal it moves forward. • Protect time for it in a tap: Firstcall blocks your moves into the open space on your calendar. CAPTURE WHAT WAS AGREED — NO DEVICE NEEDED • Tap Listen in a meeting and Firstcall turns the conversation into text right on your iPhone. The audio is deleted once it's done. • After a meeting ends, Firstcall asks what you agreed to — talk for twenty seconds or type it. • Your promises become dated tasks. What others promised you becomes "Waiting on…", and your morning call nudges you at the right moment. • Start it from the Lock Screen, Control Center, the Action Button or Siri. FAMILY, ON THE SAME PAGE • Everyone's plans on one board, in colour, from the calendars each person chooses to share. • Who's driving? Claim a pickup in a tap. Clashes and uncovered pickups show up before they bite. • Shared lists, chores with stars for the kids, a week of dinners, countdowns and away days. • Add the Family widget to see what's next, who's driving and what's for dinner. • On iPad, the Family tab becomes a kitchen board: readable across the room, awake by day and dimmed to a clock at night. EVERY PROJECT, ONE VIEW • Tap a project to see its next move, open tasks, scheduled time, who you're waiting on and the notes from its meetings. YOUR TASKS, WOVEN INTO YOUR DAY • Type it like you'd say it — "Call dentist tomorrow 3pm #home !" — and Firstcall sets the date, time, list and star. • Lists, repeating tasks, steps, and Today, Upcoming and Anytime views. Swipe to finish, with undo. • Your list feeds your call: the next task on your top project becomes your first move, and anything overdue can earn a slot. • Break it down: turn a stuck task into a few concrete first steps. • Fit it in: book a task into a real free slot on your calendar. • Let go or recommit: a calm way to clear tasks that have sat overdue for a week. HANDS-FREE • Ask Siri: “What’s my call?”, “Complete my move”, “Recalculate my day”. • Keep the current move on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island, with one‑tap done. • Quick‑capture a new input or add a task from the widget or Siri — it folds into your day without opening the app. BRING YOUR TOOLS • Connect Apple Reminders, Todoist, Linear and Notion so you never retype commitments. The most pressing one quietly informs your call — never a backlog to triage. HOME & HOUSEHOLD, HELD FOR YOU • The Vault remembers recurring upkeep — services, warranties, renewals — and surfaces each only on the day it matters. CLOSE THE DAY • A calm 60‑second evening debrief celebrates what you did and quietly shapes tomorrow. Start in a minute: pick a ready-made setup for founders, busy parents, tradies or a new job. Calm, private, and on your side. One clear call each morning. Nothing important ever slips.

Share a board with your household: everyone's plans, who's driving, shared lists, chores and stars, meals, countdowns and away days. Family widget: what's next, who's driving and what's for dinner, right on your Home Screen. Firstcall now runs on iPad, with a kitchen board made for a shared family screen. ### 1.6.1 — 2026-10-21 Listen, made dependable. • Recording starts properly on every iPhone — fixes "Couldn't start recording". • A big Start button: nothing records until you tap it. Say "Hey Siri, Listen with Firstcall" and it starts straight away. • Clearer results: "No speech" or "Silent" instead of a vague error, and more reliable transcription on older iPhones. • The "what did you agree to?" card now appears only after real meetings — not after solo calendar blocks like the gym. ### 1.6.0 — 2026-10-11 Listen — capture what was agreed, without buying a gadget. • Tap Listen in a meeting: your iPhone turns the conversation into text on the device, then deletes the audio. • After a meeting, Firstcall asks "what did you agree to?" — talk for twenty seconds or type it. • Pro: a short summary plus "You'll…" and "They'll…" follow-ups you can add to your tasks in one tap. • Waiting on someone? Firstcall remembers, and nudges you in your morning call when it's due. • Start Listen from the Lock Screen, Control Center, the Action Button or Siri, with a Live Activity to stop it. • Every project now has its own page: next move, open tasks, scheduled time, waiting on and meeting notes. • New here? Start from a ready-made setup for founders, busy parents, tradies or a new job. ### 1.5.0 — 2026-10-10 Tasks — your own to-do list, now part of your day. • A new Tasks tab. Type it like you'd say it — "Call dentist tomorrow 3pm #home !" — and Firstcall sets the date, time, list and star. • Lists, repeating tasks, steps, and Today, Upcoming and Anytime views. Swipe to finish, with undo. • Your list feeds your morning call: the next task on your top project becomes your first move, and anything overdue can earn a slot. • Break it down — turn a stuck task into a few concrete first steps (Pro). • Fit it in — book a task into a real free slot on your calendar (Pro). • Let go or recommit — a calm way to clear tasks that have sat overdue for a week. • Ask Siri: "Add a task to Firstcall". • Settings now lives behind the gear at the top of Today. ### 1.4.0 — 2026-10-10 A sharper daily planner — plus two ways to feed it without lifting a finger. • Quick Capture — drop a new input into your day from the Home/Lock Screen widget or Siri (“Capture to Daybreak”). It folds straight into today; no app needed. • Notion — connect your tasks database so due items quietly inform your call (joins Todoist, Linear and Apple Reminders). • A clearer focus on what a planner should do: one clear call, time protected, nothing slipping. ## More apps by Stuart McMillan - [iRecall](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/irecall/id6766152955) - [Crustly: Pizza Night Planner](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/crustly-pizza-night-planner/id6778322805) - [Anchori: Safety Inspections](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/anchori-safety-inspections/id6792967016) - [NORTH: Leadership Coach](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/north-leadership-coach/id6795054326) - [RECKON: Call It](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/reckon-call-it/id6796254965) - [Boondockr: Camping Log](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/boondockr-camping-log/id6797116459) All apps by Stuart McMillan: https://appshunter.io/developer/1896215546 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
