Inkoum is a calm, all-in-one productivity app that brings your tasks, notes, calendar, habits, goals, and focus sessions into a single, unified flow โ so you stop juggling five different apps just to plan your day. Everything lives together and works together. A task can carry a due date, a reminder, a checklist, and a project. A calendar event can turn into a focus session. A habit streak feeds directly into your weekly review. Nothing is disconnected. WHY INKOUM - One flow, not five apps โ tasks, notes, calendar, habits, goals, and a focus timer, all in one place - Fully offline by default โ your data lives on your device, no account required to start - Calm, distraction-free design โ built for daily use, not to maximize your screen time - Fast capture โ get a thought out of your head and into the app in seconds FEATURES Tasks & Lists Create tasks with priorities, due dates, checklists, and recurring schedules. Organize them into projects and quick lists for anything from groceries to packing lists. Notes Write notes that stay tidy and searchable, with attachments when you need them. Calendar See tasks, events, and reminders together in one calendar โ no more switching between your task manager and your calendar app. Focus Timer A built-in focus/Pomodoro timer to help you protect blocks of deep work, with session history so you can see where your time actually goes. Habits & Goals Track habits with streaks, and connect your daily habits to longer-term goals, so the small stuff visibly adds up to the big stuff. Whiteboard Sketch out ideas, plans, or diagrams on a simple whiteboard, right inside the same app. Reminders Gentle, on-device reminders for tasks and standalone items, scheduled locally rather than routed through a server. Insights & Reviews See your progress over time โ completed tasks, habit consistency, and focus time โ so you can adjust instead of guessing. PRIVACY BY DESIGN Inkoum works fully offline by default. Your tasks and notes stay on your device unless you explicitly turn on optional cloud sync. We don't sell your data and we don't use it for advertising. Whether you're planning your week, tracking a habit, or just trying to get your thoughts out of your head, Inkoum is built to be the one calm place you keep coming back to.
