Keep Your Tasks and Schedule Organized — Easy and Quick! This is a full digital equivalent of a classic pocket paper planner with a weekly view and traditional page-flipping, turning any number of tasks into a clear plan for your day, week, month, or year. It lets you plan all your personal and work-related tasks with maximum ease, simplicity, and speed, giving you an instant overview of how busy your time is. The planner combines a notebook, scheduler, calendar, habit tracker, and to-do list—all in one app. It replaces your familiar paper organizer with a perfectly identical, high-tech version so you can effortlessly create plans, track their progress, and achieve your goals. Remember: a dream written down alongside a date becomes a goal! Millions of people worldwide already use our planner. It helps create schedules, take notes, manage client lists, keep track of tasks and shopping lists, build habits, stay productive, and never forget anything. The interface mimics the classic paper notebook with page-flipping that people have used for centuries. It’s the simplest and most intuitive way to plan—like a school diary or a minimalist paper planner. On the main screen, you see all your plans for the week—the most manageable timeframe for convenient planning. You can easily flip forward or backward through as many weeks, months, or years as you want. Any tasks, plans, habits, or lists are easy to add, edit, or delete. No complicated data entry systems, no filling out forms—just type or speak your notes as you would in any regular memo. Key planner features: • Smooth page-flipping just like a paper calendar (planner, organizer). No need to carry a paper notebook anymore. • Full-week view plus an expanded single-day view for more notes. All your plans at your fingertips. • A variety of background designs to suit even the most discerning taste. Change them as many times as you want. • Calendar for easy navigation to any date, past or future. • Highlight notes with color, underline, strikethrough, bold, or italic font—all to prioritize tasks and mark completed ones. • A separate notes page (to-do list) not tied to any date. Use it for shopping lists or jotting down valuable thoughts. • Week numbers displayed and one-tap return to the current date anytime. • Customizable color and font size for entries and events. • Language selection. • Choice of the first day of the week. • Voice input for adding entries, plus Apple Pencil support on iPads. • iCloud backup and restore—your data is always safe. By popular demand, we also added: • Recurring events (daily, weekly, biweekly, monthly, yearly, etc.) Perfect for birthdays, workouts, schedules. • Automatic reminders (notifications you requested). • Checkboxes to mark completed tasks. • Hourly breakdown for days, making it easier to plan consistent schedules. • Ability to share your schedule with colleagues, friends, and family. • Word search function. • Integration with calendars like Google Calendar and iPhone Calendar. • And much, much more.

Proximum puts your next events where you actually look — the Home Screen, the Lock Screen, and StandBy — in a clean, customizable widget. No app to open, no clutter. Just what's coming up. It reads every calendar already on your iPhone, so iCloud, Google, Exchange and Outlook all show up together the moment you grant access. Nothing to configure, no extra sign-ins. THREE WAYS TO SEE YOUR DAY • List — a dense, glanceable agenda grouped by day • Spotlight — your next event front and center with a bold countdown • Timeline — a vertical time-spine with a live "now" marker SMART, AT A GLANCE • Automatic event icons — flights, workouts, birthdays, meetings, calls and more • A free/busy summary line: how many events today and when you're next free • A live progress bar on whatever's happening right now • Relative countdowns ("in 25m") so you always know how long you've got WIDGETS FOR EVERY SPACE • Home Screen — small, medium and large • Lock Screen — inline, rectangular and a countdown ring • StandBy — glanceable on your nightstand • A "+N more" row so a packed day never gets cut off awkwardly MAKE IT YOURS • Six hand-tuned themes, or build your own colors • Recolor every event to match the theme, add an ambient glow, or keep your calendar colors • Choose how many events, how many days ahead, and the density • Group by day; sort by time, duration or title • Font design and text size — including Easy-to-Read Times • Pick exactly which calendars appear, and mute events by keyword • Every widget can override the defaults with its own look A BEAUTIFUL IN-APP AGENDA Open Proximum for the full, scrollable version of your widget feed — the same curated events, grouped by day, with rich detail a tap away. PROXIMUM PRO — OPTIONAL, ONE-TIME Unlock once and keep it forever. Never a subscription. • One-tap Join — Zoom, Meet, Teams, Webex, Whereby and more, straight from the widget • Leave-by travel alerts — Proximum works out when you need to head out for your next event and tells you before you're late • Live Activity — your next event on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island, counting down • Week at a Glance — a heat-map widget showing how busy your next seven days are • Day briefing and double-booking alerts, written entirely on your device • An optional morning digest notification, at a time you choose PRIVATE BY DESIGN Proximum reads your calendars read-only and renders them on your device. Your events are never uploaded, there are no accounts and no Proximum servers, and there is no tracking or advertising. What's on your calendar stays on your iPhone. Leave-by travel alerts are opt-in and off by default. Turn them on and your location and your event's address are used to ask Apple Maps for an ETA — exactly like asking for directions. Proximum never receives, stores or transmits that anywhere else. BUILT FOR iOS Native SwiftUI and WidgetKit, designed for iOS 17 and later. Light and dark, Dynamic Type friendly, and fast. Add Proximum to your Home Screen and always know what's next.
