SlotNote is a smart scheduling assistant built for appointment-based professionals, bringing your workday, clients, notes, payments, and daily workflow together in one place. Most calendar apps expect you to fit your work into fixed time blocks. SlotNote works the other way around: it adapts to the way you work. Set your working hours, divide your day into personalized slots, and shape your schedule around your actual workflow. Merge, hide, and rearrange slots to manage each day exactly the way you need. ADAPTS TO YOUR PROFESSION Not every professional works the same way or uses the same terminology. When you select your profession, SlotNote adjusts its language and workflow accordingly. A psychologist can work with clients and sessions, while a teacher sees students and lessons. From dietitians and consultants to tutors, coaches, and other appointment-based professionals, SlotNote provides a natural and familiar workflow tailored to the language of each profession. MANAGE YOUR DAY FROM ONE SCREEN The Today view gives you a clear overview of your entire workday. See open and booked slots, your next appointment, completed and pending tasks, and your daily workload at a glance. With SlotNote, you can: • Quickly create and edit appointments • Manage client, student, and other contact records • Mark appointments as completed, pending, or canceled • Track payment status • Add contact notes, appointment notes, and slot notes • Review past records and your working schedule in one organized system • Keep track of upcoming appointments with notifications AVAILABLE ON IPHONE, IPAD, AND APPLE WATCH SlotNote is designed for iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch. Use the iPad-optimized layout to manage your calendar, clients, and records in a wider workspace. On Apple Watch, you can view your daily appointments, follow upcoming sessions, and complete supported actions directly from your wrist. ICLOUD SYNC ACROSS YOUR DEVICES With iCloud sync, your SlotNote data stays up to date across supported Apple devices signed in to the same Apple Account. Changes made on iPhone can be accessed on iPad, allowing you to continue your workflow seamlessly without creating a separate SlotNote account. FEWER TAPS, A SMOOTHER WORKFLOW SlotNote is designed to help you complete everyday tasks in as few steps as possible. Quick appointment creation, clear status indicators, payment tracking, and day-based slot management reduce the need to move constantly between different screens. Its clean interface helps you find the information you need during a busy workday. Customize text size, appearance, notifications, and working preferences to make SlotNote fit the way you work. YOUR PRIVACY COMES FIRST SlotNote is designed with the sensitivity of professional information in mind. Client, student, appointment, payment, and note records are stored locally on your device. No account is required, and you do not need to upload your records to an external service to use the app. App Lock and privacy controls give you greater control over access to the app and how sensitive information appears on screen. Your workday is uniquely yours. SlotNote is built to adapt to it. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
