About

Mornel

Read full description

Mornel is a gentle planner for people who find planning itself the hard part. Say everything on your mind, out loud or in a chat, and Mornel turns it into a calm, structured plan you can actually follow. Designed with ADHD and neurodivergent brains in mind, and for anyone whose thoughts move faster than their to-do list. BRAIN DUMP β†’ PLAN Tap or hold the mic and talk. Mornel transcribes your ramble, spreads it across the right days, and shows you a review sheet before anything lands on your plan. Nothing is added without your say-so. It never invents times you didn't mention; it just proposes them. It understands English and five other languages. PLAN BY CHATTING Ask Mornel is a planner you can talk to. It knows your schedule, your focus history, and your synced calendar events, and it proposes changes as tick-box suggestions. You approve each one, and anything applied can be undone for five minutes. The AI never edits your plan on its own. A CALM DAILY PLANNER β€’ A gentle day timeline with time blocks, colours, and icons β€’ Quick add with date, time, reminders, and subtasks β€’ An inbox for thoughts that don't have a day yet β€’ "Break into steps": AI splits a daunting task into small, doable sub-steps β€’ Routines in their own band above the day, ticked off with a tap β€’ Mood check-ins as often as you like, with the shape of your day in Insights β€’ Yesterday check-in: tick off what you actually did and keep your streak honest FOCUS, BEAUTIFULLY Start a focus session from one minute to hours, single or multi-round. Sit inside hand-painted scenes that shift from day to golden hour to night, with ambient soundscapes (rain, cafΓ©, brown noise and more). A lock-screen Live Activity keeps the countdown in view (iOS 16.1+; interactive buttons on iOS 17+). A PRIVATE JOURNAL Notebooks, a clean block editor, moods, and photos, protected by an optional Face ID lock. Export your words any time as PDF or plain Markdown; your writing is never trapped here. MEET YOUR PET A small companion that grows only from real work: focused minutes and genuinely completed tasks earn XP; tapping and buying never do. Levels never decay. Watch it evolve through title bands from Stray to Legend, keep it on a home-screen widget, and bring friends along. Share plan tags with people you invite, and cheer each other's streaks in a friends-only feed. FREE, HONESTLY The planner, focus timer, journaling and moods, streaks, cloud sync, and the Live Activity are free forever, with a fresh daily allowance of AI planning, chat, and journal assists. Mornel Pro removes the AI limits and adds Apple & Google Calendar sync, weekly repeats, custom reminder times, every soundscape, more journal photos, and full journal export, with monthly, yearly, and one-time lifetime options. Subscriptions are billed to your Apple Account and renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends; manage or cancel any time in your App Store settings.
