Informant for Mac

Informant is a powerful all-access platforms which integrates calendaring tasks and notes management together as full-fledged citizens. No need to buy separate apps for your time management - Informant handles it all! Use templates or Quick Entry to create new events and tasks quickly. Watch as we bring all the advanced features of our mobile app - Pocket Informant - to the desktop.

It's designed to take full advantage of macOS. We didn’t just port Pocket Informant's mobile interface, but started with a fresh, new design born of months of sketching, prototyping, and real-world use. The tabbed interface gives you the ability to have your calendar customized -- not just in one window of the app -- but for each tab. No other calendar app gives you this kind of power on the desktop. Our focus has been on designing a planner that brings your agenda and todo/task list together visually and organizationally. Informant has been at the forefront of the digital-calendar revolution, and we will continue to forge new roads in the next year. See how Informant on iOS, Android, and now macOS will revolutionize how you plan your life.
