What's New in Inku

2.0.1

August 6, 2026

Know what your Inku is doing. DEVICE ACTIVITY (BETA) A new Activity tab shows the last 24 hours of your Inku's life — when it checked in, when it redrew its screen, and when it rested overnight — so you can tell at a glance that everything's working. A GUIDED START After you connect a device, a short tour explains how Inku actually behaves: it fetches on its own over Wi-Fi, sleeps between check-ins, and only redraws when something changes. No more wondering if a still screen means a stuck device. TEACH YOUR PLANNER When Inku gets an event or task wrong, you can correct it right from the detail sheet — and your correction sticks. Rate the daily commentary with a thumbs up or down and leave a note, split or merge duplicate events that came in from two calendars, and review every rule you've taught it in Settings. FASTER HELP WHEN SOMETHING'S OFF Report a Bug now asks what kind of device issue you're seeing and surfaces the right help article before you type a word. FOCUS FIXES Weekday Focus schedules now register reliably, the From/To time pickers open inside the session sheet, and you can dismiss the Focus mini-bar for a running session. SMOOTHER SETUP Open (password-free) Wi-Fi networks are now supported, Wi-Fi scanning retries after a brief Bluetooth drop, and the Continue button stays reachable on smaller iPhones. POLISH & STABILITY Fixed a crash when editing or deleting a local calendar event, hardened the home screen widget against rate limits and a rare crash, repaired Founding Member card sharing, and quieted background network warnings. The app can now also deliver smaller improvements to you directly, without waiting on an App Store update.

User reviews

Refreshing, whimsical, inspirational

Inku is a refreshing, minimalist, and streamlined way to view a summary of my day. The AI gives it a bit of personality, and a nudge of encouragement when I need it. The avatar gives it cute, friendly character and makes my days more whimsical.

Response from developer

So glad you are enjoying Inku! We will continue to improve any and all aspects of the app.

World-class app support, great product.

I was a kickstarter backer for the e-ink calendar Inku device this app supports, and was very happy to see that it came exactly as described. The app is just as cute. When I encountered a hiccup with the device setup through the app, the Inku team on Discord immediately jumped on the issue and was able to help me resolve it the same day. I don’t think I’ve ever had a better experience with any app ever honestly. The makers are definitely passionate about this app/device and it looks so cute on my desk and in my iPhone widgets! Highly recommended.

Thank you so much for this review! We want to make sure that our users have the most delightful experience with Inku!

No use to me

I did not know what exactly the app did because there was no free trial. So I purchased it and realized it just reiterated whatever was in my calendar. I really don’t need a second calendar. I already have a calendar for free. I quickly asked for a refund but they declined. So I’m basically down a years subscription with an app I will never ever use.

I’m wondering why it has high reviews, please tell me what it’s good for and what I’m missing here.

Response from developer

Hi there! We are sorry that Inku did not provide the experience you were hoping for. I just wanted to be clear that we have not denied any refunds. In fact we do not get set any say in refunds. Apple processes them without contacting us or asking us for anything based on the user's usage of the app, their past behavior on the app store, and what they think is fair. If you would like to discuss options, please reach out to support@inkboard.ink. The team is very busy at the moment with fulfilling our hardware orders but I am sure that we will be able to assist you in some way, shape, or form once we get to it. The Inku Team

I really REALLY wanted to love this app

I have RAGING ADHD and I’ve been on the market to find the best apps to help me manage my life. I really wanted to like this app because the premise of it is so wonderfully designed! However, it’s just not usable because it’s so laggy. The most important feature, which I think is the calendar sync is always wrong and doesn’t work properly.

Love my Inku

It’s very helpful
And reliable especially with multiple calendars to manage.
