EventMonkey helps you capture event information without the tedious data entry. Point your camera at any poster, flyer, or screenshot, and the app extracts the date, time, location, and description using smart text recognition. Then it creates a calendar event for you. How it works: Take a photo of an event poster (or upload one from your photo library). EventMonkey reads the text, figures out what's relevant, and shows you a preview. Review the details, make any tweaks, and tap to save it to your calendar. That's it. Perfect for: - Concert and show tickets - Class schedules and syllabi - Work conferences and seminars - Community events and meetups - Sports games and tournaments - Any printed or digital event information The app works with your existing calendars (iCloud, Google Calendar, Outlook, etc.). Events get saved wherever you normally keep them. No separate app to check. We built this because manually typing event details is annoying. You're looking at all the information right there on a poster, and you still have to type it all into your phone. EventMonkey fixes that.

About

AI Planner

Features
Read full description

Tempa is a voice-first day planner for ADHD adults — and for anyone whose to-do list has quietly turned into a wall of guilt. Say your day out loud, and Tempa's AI turns it into a real schedule: times, durations, and an order that fits how your energy actually moves. Then it does the part that matters most. It hides the wall and shows you one thing — the one you're doing right now. No streaks to lose. No red overdue badges. No screen telling you how far behind you are. When a day falls apart, Tempa reshapes it and moves on with you. Tempa is free to download. Using it requires Tempa Pro, an auto-renewable subscription — and new subscribers get 3 days completely free on the yearly plan, so you can test every feature before paying anything. WHAT YOU GET WITH TEMPA PRO • Speak Your Day: Talk the way you think — "gym at eight, focused work until lunch, call Mum in the evening." Tempa writes the schedule; you tap once to keep it. • One Thing at a Time: The Right Now block shows the single task you're on, with everything else deliberately out of sight until it's their turn. • Break It Down: Stuck on something big? Tempa splits it into steps small enough to actually start, so beginning costs almost nothing. • Ask Tempa: Ask what to do next, what to drop, or where something could fit — and get an answer that already knows what's on your day. • Focus Sessions: A dial-based timer with a gentle nudge if you wander off, never a scolding one. A session survives an app switch, a phone call, or a full restart — you come back to exactly where you were. • Built Around Your Rhythm: Tell Tempa when you wake up and when your energy dips. Demanding work stays in your good hours; the dip gets the light stuff. • Your Week, Without the Report Card: See your golden hours as a heat map, your focus minutes, and what you planned against what you did — as information, never a verdict. • Yours, Everywhere: Your day syncs privately across your iPhone and iPad through your own iCloud account. No sign-up, no ads, no tracking. Plan out loud. Do one thing. Move at your tempo. — — — SUBSCRIPTION Tempa Pro is a paid auto-renewable subscription required to use Tempa. • Subscription: Tempa Pro Yearly • Length: 1 year, auto-renewing • Price: $29.99 USD per year (prices may vary by region) • Free trial: 3 days for new subscribers, then $29.99/year • Subscription: Tempa Pro Monthly • Length: 1 month, auto-renewing • Price: $3.99 USD per month (prices may vary by region) Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase.
