Your tasks. Your calendar. Just say it. Aria is an AI assistant and planner that keeps your to-do list, calendar, reminders and notes in one place. Plan your schedule, build routines and count down to the days that matter, without switching apps. “Finish the report by Friday, team meeting tomorrow at 3 pm.” One sentence. One task, one event. Morning. Only what matters. A briefing of two or three sentences: today’s events and what to do first. You can listen to it, too. Start your first task with a single timer. The time left stays on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island. Daytime. As it comes to mind. Ramble, and Aria splits it into task suggestions you can add all at once. A photo, a shared screenshot or a PDF: Aria finds the dates and suggests reminders. What you can’t miss rings as an alarm, even in Silent mode or a Focus. Evening. Move the rest to tomorrow. See what’s left and what’s overdue, then reschedule it all in one go. At the end of the week, the Weekly Briefing looks back on tasks, routines and mood. Tasks and calendar, on one screen. • Today, Upcoming, Someday and Inbox, with Day, 3-Day, Week and Month views • Drag a task onto the grid to schedule it; type “tomorrow 3 pm” and it’s understood • Repeating tasks, subtasks, categories and an Eisenhower Matrix • Routines with streaks, and a step-by-step routine timer • D-day countdowns and widgets, deadline alerts that step up, arrive-and-leave reminders • Your device calendar alongside, and sync with the Reminders app Notes that become knowledge. • Scraps: notes, links and files in one place. Time Capsule (Aria Pro): this day, 1 week to 1 year ago. • Synapse: people, topics and ideas linked into a map. Search by meaning. • Memory: what you tell Aria carries into the next chat; review, edit or delete it in Settings. iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, Mac. Home and Lock Screen widgets, Control Center and the Action button, Siri and Shortcuts, the Apple Watch app and the Mac menu bar. Sign in with Apple and every device shares the same notes. In English and Korean.
