Rivet vs Simple Schedule

Rivet puts your calendars, to-dos, notes, and workouts on one timeline. Plan what’s next and see what you’ve done, in one app. Smart Add Type or say what you want to add, like “lunch with Sam on Thursday at 1” or “move standup to 4”. Rivet shows the change first. Nothing changes until you tap Add. Plans Your to-dos and threads, one tap from the timeline. Group to-dos, notes, and meetings in a thread. Drag a to-do onto the timeline to give it a time. Calendars See Apple Calendar and Google Calendar events next to your to-dos, and create events from Rivet. Add a Google Meet link to an event and join from the timeline. Your Apple Reminders show too. Later Save links, text, images, and files from Safari or the share sheet. Keep things to watch, read, cook, visit, and buy. Read supported pages in Rivet, highlight passages, and add comments. Drag anything you saved onto the timeline to plan when you’ll do it. Fitness Build a workout, import routines from Hevy or Strong, or paste a workout as plain text. Add it to the timeline, then start it. Rivet takes you through each set and rest. See your rest timer on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island. Finished workouts save to Apple Health. Meeting notes Record a meeting and Rivet saves the transcript to Notes. On an iPhone with Apple Intelligence, Rivet also lists the key points and decisions. Rivet records only after you start a recording. Capsules Your workouts, the music you played, and what you watched show on the timeline as Capsules. Connect Apple Health, Apple Music, and Trakt to fill them. Memory See each week, month, and year: what you watched, listened to, read, and cooked, where you went, your meetings, and how you moved and slept. Time Machine Scroll back through past days and tap one to open it on the timeline. Sky The sky and the Earth behind the timeline follow the sun. Open Sky to choose a fixed time of day instead. Search Pull down on the timeline to search to-dos, events, notes, meetings, workouts, music, and what you watched.

Simple Schedule turns a month of repeat events into a few taps. Create templates for the things you do again and again: work shifts, classes, school pickup, the gym, family dinners. Pick one, then tap or drag across the days it happens. Different templates can share a day, so your work, the kids' school and family plans all fit together. Publish the month to the calendar you already use: iCloud, Google, or any calendar on your iPhone. Each template can go to its own calendar. Change a day later and tap Update Calendar; the same event is updated, never duplicated. • Edit just one day: new times, a different location, notes, or slide it earlier or later • All-day templates for vacations, days off and custody days • Address suggestions, so iOS Calendar can give Time to Leave alerts • See what's already on your calendars, and edit or delete it • Undo and redo, light and dark mode, VoiceOver and Dynamic Type • Export any month as an .ics file No account, no ads, no tracking. Your schedule stays on your iPhone. Free, with optional tips that unlock nothing.
