Schreibe Aufgaben, Notizen und Termine auf ein sauberes Punktraster — strukturiert wie auf Papier, aber durchsuchbar und synchronisiert.

Erledigtes verschwindet nie. DEINE LISTEN • Today, Next und Someday — Einträge per Wisch verschieben. • Projekte bündeln zusammengehörige Aufgaben. • Monats-Tracker als Punktraster für Gewohnheiten. HANDGEMACHT • Skizzen und Sticker pro Seite — mit Apple Pencil oder Finger. • Prioritäten und Ideen markieren. DEINE DATEN GEHÖREN DIR • Kein Account, kein Login. • iCloud-Markdown-Sync: deine Seiten als sichtbare .md-Dateien in iCloud Drive oder einem selbst gewählten Ordner — kompatibel mit Obsidian. • Lokal gespeichert, optional über iCloud synchronisiert.
