Agenda: Notes meets Calendar
Timeline notes
Free · In-App Purchases
Notes on a timeline.
Apple Design Award winner linking notes to your calendar.
Meeting prep, project plans, and decisions stay connected to their time.
Most note apps lose track of time. You jot something down, it vanishes into a folder, and a week later you can't recall why you made that choice or what you prepped for that meeting.
Agenda changes this. Each note sits on a timeline with your calendar. Get ready for next week's client meeting, capture decisions as they occur, and review exactly what brought you here — all in one glance.
"It's my favourite new app in years."
— John Gruber, daringfireball.net
"Every notes app should work like Agenda."
— Khoi Vinh, subtraction.com
"One of the most intriguing note-taking apps I've used."
— John Voorhees, MacStories
YOUR NOTES, LINKED TO YOUR CALENDAR
Attach any note to a date or link it directly to a calendar event. Mark notes as "On the Agenda" to highlight them in a dedicated overview — your shortlist of what's crucial right now.
A TRUE TEXT EDITOR
Headings, lists, tables, checklists, indented blocks, and preformatted text — with the ease of plain text input. Concentrate on your writing; Agenda manages the appearance.
FILES, PHOTOS, AND LINKS
Attach files and images to any note. Everything syncs across your devices and can be previewed inline.
PROJECTS AND CATEGORIES
Group notes into projects, group projects into categories. Drag to reorder, collapse to focus, or let the timeline organise for you.
MAC, IPAD, AND IPHONE
Agenda syncs across all your devices via iCloud or Dropbox. Share individual notes for real-time collaboration — ideal for team meetings or shared lists.
FREE TO USE, FOREVER
Agenda is free with no time limits. Premium features are available through a yearly subscription — and you retain every feature you unlock, even if you cancel. A one-time lifetime purchase is also available.
