About

Foley

Features

Foley is a to-do list you talk to. Say what is on your mind and Foley files it: the task, the project it belongs to, the date you actually meant, already filled in. No form to complete afterwards, no second pass. WHAT IT DOES Talk instead of typing. Say "call the plumber Tuesday morning" and it lands as a task, in the right project, dated Tuesday. Your list, everywhere. What you capture on your phone is on your Mac and on the web before you have put the phone down. Projects and folders. Group work the way you already think about it, and keep the personal things somewhere separate. Share a project. Invite somebody to a project and you both work on the same list. See what is coming. A timeline for what is due, and priorities for what matters most. Know who filed what. Tasks created by an AI agent are marked as such, so you can always tell your own work from what was filed for you. FOLEY PRO Foley Pro is available as a monthly or an annual subscription, and the first week is free. It covers the AI that listens and organises, so there is no API key to set up, and it keeps your list in step across every device you use. The price is shown in the app in your own currency before you buy anything. Payment is charged to your Apple Account when you confirm the purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless you turn auto-renew off at least 24 hours before the current period ends, and your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours of the end of that period. You can manage the subscription or cancel it in your device settings at any time. Any unused part of a free trial is forfeited when you buy a subscription.
