Bimble
Read full descriptionHide full description
Your day, drawn to scale. Nothing in it is ever late. Bimble is a daily planner built on one idea: you should be able to see where your time actually goes and the things you didn't get to should never be shouting at you. YOUR WHOLE DAY IN ONE STRIP One line is one day, drawn to scale from the hour you start to the hour you stop. Every task is a segment sitting at its real time, as wide as it really is. Filled means done. A needle marks now. The same mark appears on Today, across the week, in your widgets and on your Lock Screen, so a glance is always enough. NOTHING IS EVER OVERDUE An unfinished task doesn't turn red and doesn't stack up a badge. It drifts: it steps off the timeline into its own group at the top of today, and one tap puts it back on the clock. No streaks, no scores, no counting what you missed. Rescheduling is planning, not repair. PLAN IN PLAIN LANGUAGE Type "gym tomorrow at 7 for 45m #health" and Bimble pulls out the date, the time, the duration and the list as you type, then shows you what it took so you can drop any of it. It all happens offline. There is nothing to sign in to. WHAT'S INSIDE ⢠Today: a live timeline with an hour-by-hour window around now ⢠Upcoming: seven days, each drawn as its own strip; drag a task onto another day ⢠Inbox: catch it now, place it later ⢠Lists: work, home, health, whatever you keep ⢠Search across everything, open or done ⢠Subtasks, notes, priorities, tags and repeats ⢠Reminders at the time you set: one per task, and never a second one ⢠Your calendar mirrored into the day, so you plan around what's already there ⢠Widgets, Lock Screen accessories, Live Activity and Dynamic Island for the block you're in ⢠Light and dark, Dynamic Type, VoiceOver and Reduce Motion, done properly ⢠Export everything to CSV or JSON, any time A COMPANION, NOT A COACH Bimble is a small character who sits in the header and reacts to the clock. It speaks at most twice a day, in four words or fewer, and never about what you didn't do. You can set it to speak often, rarely, or never. FREE, AND HONEST ABOUT IT Unlimited tasks, up to five lists, daily/weekly/monthly repeats, one calendar, reminders, the Daybar widget, search, export and your complete history are free and stay free. Your own record of what you've done is never locked. BIMBLE PRO ⢠Smart scheduling, Bimble finds a gap that fits and offers it; you approve ⢠Break a big thing down into honest steps, on device (iOS 26 and later) ⢠Every calendar, not just one ⢠Your rhythm twelve weeks of insights and the hours you actually work ⢠As many lists as you like, and advanced repeats ⢠Themes, extra companions and the larger widgets ⢠The same day on every device, over iCloud NO BADGES. EVER. Bimble never puts a number on your Home Screen, never sends the same reminder twice, and nothing piles up while you're away. Your plan lives on your device. No account, no tracking, no ads. Bimble Pro is a subscription, monthly or yearly, with a free trial. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase, and renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel in your Apple Account settings. Terms: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy: https://hodev.me/bimble-privacy/
Planometer

Planometer is a planner that measures itself. Plan your day here ā events, tasks, mail ā and at the end of it see how much of the day you decided in advance, and how much simply happened to you. WHAT IT MEASURES Ā· The day's score ā one number for the quality of your planning, not for your productivity. Ā· Reschedules ā how often things move, and what they move off. Ā· Hours by marker ā where the time actually went, under your own codes. Ā· How much of the day was in the plan before the day started. MAIL LIKE A MESSENGER One subject, one conversation. New mail at the bottom, your reply in the same place, quotes collapsed, attachments where you left them. Swipe a message to archive it, delete it or mark it read. Search runs across every connected mailbox, and letters carry the same markers your events and tasks use. AN ASSISTANT YOU CAN TYPE TO OR TALK TO Ask what the week looks like. Have a meeting moved, a task created, a letter turned into either. Get a reply drafted straight into the message box. It always proposes and you confirm ā nothing is created, changed or sent behind your back. There is a live voice mode as well, switched on in settings when you want to plan the day out loud instead of typing. WHAT ELSE IS IN IT Ā· Your calendar in full: create, move, finish. Changes go back to your own Google or Apple calendar. Ā· Tasks, including repeating ones, with Apple Reminders kept in step. Ā· Markers ā your own short codes on events, tasks and letters, so hours are counted by what they were spent on. Ā· A morning and an evening briefing, and a weekly review, written from your own week. WHAT IT WILL NOT DO Ā· It will not tell you to work more. The score is about planning, not effort ā a quiet day planned in advance scores better than a full one improvised. Ā· It will not keep a second copy of your life. Everything is read from the calendar you already use. Ā· It will not decide anything behind your back: an event, a task or a letter goes out only after you confirm it. CREDITS The planner, the score, the calendar, the trends and the streaks are free. The AI parts ā the briefings, the assistant, the voice mode, the mail drafts ā cost credits. Every green day earns credits, and packs can be bought if you want more. There is no subscription.

Verdict
The clearest difference is device support: Planometer at 4 against Bimble's 2. Planometer also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
