Get the most out of journals, notes & tasks

Elevate the power of the iCalendar standard to the next level, use the potential of the combination of journals (VJournal), notes (VJournal) and tasks (VTodo) out of one app and use DAVx5 to synchronize your entries with the CalDAV-server of your choice!

iCal standard compliant

Using the iCal standard ensures compatibility and interoperability with other apps and services independent of a dedicated provider or infrastructure. Journals and Notes are compliant to the definition of the VJOURNAL component, Tasks are compliant to the VTODO component. Future features will also include import and export functionalities to and from .ics files :-)

Combine journals, notes & tasks

Instead of using separate apps for journals, notes & tasks you can use them out of one hand, combine and link them to each other, e.g. create meeting minutes and link your tasks to them.

Sync with DAVx5

Synchronize your entries with any compatible CalDAV server by using DAVx5 (https://www.davx5.com/). By using DAVx5 you are free to choose your preferred provider for CalDAV, you can even use your local server to store and synchronize your data. Note: DAVx5 is an independent app and must be acquired separately.
