You are not disorganised. You are holding six apps in your head. One app for the to-do list. A calendar that has never heard of it. Notes somewhere else, mail in a fourth place, then groceries, workouts, the weather, the news. Eight logins, eight sets of notifications, a bill for each β€” and the thing you needed was still in the app you did not open. Apical is the one place all of it lives. Open it and today is already there: what you have to do, where you have to be, what came in overnight, what the sky is doing. No setup. No account. It just starts. WHY IT FEELS DIFFERENT Your tasks and your calendar sit on ONE timeline, so the app can warn you before you double-book β€” which two separate apps can never do for you. Tick a task off from the Lock Screen without opening anything. Gmail, Outlook, iCloud and IMAP arrive in the same place you plan your day, so mail stops being a separate errand. Write a note by hand anywhere on the page, and find it later by any word inside it. FREE, AND NOT A TRAP The planner, notes, mail, weather and your home screen are free, with no account required β€” 15 tasks a day, 3 notes, 1 mailbox. Enough to run a week on before you decide anything. LIVE WELL β€” the life around the work Unlimited tasks, appointments and notes. Handwriting anywhere on the page, folders, and files that sit inside the note. Steps, workouts, sleep, water and heart data in one view, synced with Apple Health and tracked live on your wrist. Grocery reminders that fire when you are NEAR THE SHOP, not at 9am when you are nowhere near one. A news feed that refuses ad and tracker scripts before the page loads. No ad banners, ever. Your day on every device you own, and on the web. POWER β€” the inbox, and the thinking Up to ten mail accounts in one inbox, with two-way calendar sync. AI that reads your inbox back to you in a sentence. Describe your week in plain words and get tasks and events you can accept in one tap. Photograph a recipe and watch its ingredients land on your grocery list. Share a list, a note or a calendar with the people it actually involves. ONE PLAN INSTEAD OF FIVE A to-do app, a calendar app, a notes app, a grocery app and a health tracker each bill you every month, forever, for one slice of your life. Apical covers all five. The rest can go. Start free. Give it a week. The first month of either plan is on us.
