Features & Capabilities

Plan by hand. Type what matters. Find it again. Search typed content across planner and Note pages, then filter, sort, and jump straight back to your page.

YOUR PLANNER, YOUR WAY

PencilTime brings the freedom of a paper planner to iPad and iPhone, with the convenience of digital tools when you need them. Write naturally with Apple Pencil on iPad, sketch with your finger, or type when text works better. Plan your days, weeks, months, and year, keep notes alongside your plans, and organize everything without giving up the flexibility of pen and paper.

PLAN ACROSS YOUR WHOLE LIFE Move naturally between Day, Week, Month, and Year views. Write directly on your planner, add typed details where supported, and keep projects, meetings, ideas, journals, and reference material on dedicated Note pages.

Whether you're planning a busy workday, outlining a project, keeping a journal, or simply figuring out what comes next, PencilTime gives you room to plan without forcing you into a rigid system.

WRITE, TYPE, AND MARK THINGS UP • Write, sketch, and highlight with Apple Pencil or touch. • Type on Note pages and supported planner areas. • Format Note text with size, color, bold, italic, underline, highlighting, alignment, lists, and indentation. • Add editable lines, arrows, rectangles, rounded rectangles, and ellipses. • Mix handwriting, typed text, shapes, stickers, links, and images on the same page.

FIND WHAT YOU NEED AGAIN Search typed content across planner and Note pages from the top-bar magnifying glass.

Filter results to Planner or Notes, sort in several ways, choose whether capitalization must match, and jump directly back to the page you need.

Search includes supported typed page content, Note titles, Note text, Day entries, and Link labels. Handwriting, drawings, template labels, attachments, and live Apple Calendar events are not included in text search.

START WITH A LAYOUT, MAKE IT YOUR OWN Choose from bundled Note layouts for Paper, Study, Work, Productivity, Personal, Home & Money, and Creative uses.

Use layouts for meeting notes, assignments, exam prep, projects, budgets, checklists, habit tracking, brainstorming, sketching, and more. Change a Note page's background later while keeping your existing content in place.

KEEP EVERYTHING CLOSE • Connect planner and Note pages with Page Links. • Add website, email, phone, message, and file links. • Attach files and preview them with Quick Look. • Add reminders, photos, images, labels, and emoji. • Return quickly with Bookmarks, Recent Pages, and Back navigation. • Export completed pages as PDF or PNG.

WORK THE WAY YOU PREFER Use PencilTime with the on-screen keyboard or a hardware keyboard. Choose Fit Page or Fit Width when viewing portrait pages in landscape, set your preferred first day of the week, and use your device language for planner date labels.

START FREE, ADD PREMIUM WHEN YOU NEED IT Start with handwriting, supported typed text, search, bundled Note layouts, and one new Note page per day.

Premium adds unlimited Note pages, Tags and Smart Folders, Apple Calendar integration, iCloud sync, and access to future planner dates.

Apple Pencil is supported on compatible iPads. iPhone supports touch and keyboard input. iCloud sync requires Premium and the same Apple Account on your devices.

User Reviews

This application has a great and beautiful user interface with great colours and options. However for those who don’t use a pencil it’s so hard to write with the finger. I gladly could support this project if I knew I could use my Apple Magic Keyboard to write as well.

I want to be able to continue writing instead of having to ceate a new version
