Zoom from five-year dreams down to this afternoon. Drag, reshape, and connect your whole life on one surface, not scattered across a dozen apps.

- Pin goals, notes, and milestones where they belong

real context on your life
Ask anything. Reschedule your week,
reprioritise after a curveball, or start a new goal.

Talk to ByDesign like a person. It listens, understands, and acts.
💪 Full context
AI sees your calendar, goals, habits, and notes, not a blank chat window.

Use AI when it helps. Ignore it completely when you don’t need it.
Goal planning that changes what’s possible
Speak a dream. ByDesign breaks it into tasks, habits, courses, and a real schedule, automatically.

From Daniel
Honestly, Notion was really exhausting for me... Your product works in the simplest way. I’m a product designer, and I’d love to share my feedback with you after using it more :)
From E
I really like ByDesign - a lot. I was looking for something that works for me but is also simple and intuitive enough to work for my 12 yr old daughter who needs to start planning out her homework and chores around her other calendar events. I think this is it - and I have looked at a lot of your competitors - Notion, Motion, Tick Tick, To-Do, Todoist. None have the simplicity of user interface combined with the rich features (but not overly complex). love it😍
From Callio
Can I just say I love you. Finally, a good-looking app that isn’t complex as hell. There are tears in my eyes. I’ll happily pay for this!💯

Omg I downloaded the app and this is MY DREAM! Is like an easier onenote/word/calendar/notes in ONE🙏
From Narovsky
Hello! Just found byDesign less than 8 hours ago, and I’m blown away. It has the best of Workflowy (10 yr customer now), Notion, Google Calendar and ICQ (haha)! Oh and a neat Facebook too -- minus the obscure relatives and friends that rant-post too often. Anyhoo, just wanted to say you guys are working on a winner here
From N
First off, let me say: ByDesign’s clean, minimal UI is one of the loveliest I’ve used. The overall visual clarity helps me stay focused, and honestly? I find myself oddly fond of it. Also, this might sound funny, but one of the reasons I felt drawn to ByDesign is something you once wrote: that you’re a “productivity app addict.” As someone who’s tried nearly every productivity app under the sun... I felt so seen. That’s when I knew: Okay, this one’s made by someone like me. With love (and a very biased eye) from your fan, Narae 😊💜
From TuneOutlyson003
I just wanna say that I have FINALLY found a to-do list app where I can have recurring tasks and habit/org systems in one place. This is awesome because I keep wondering if one day my autonomous self will break....this is awesome so far!
From Petey M.
I used to keep a calendar, a to-do list, and a project app. ByDesign replaced all of them. It’s clean, it works, and I haven’t needed anything else.
App Store Review
I have tried pretty much every calendar app and this one is the best I’ve tried.
