Tasks with due dates automatically appear in your Apple Calendar (via CalDAV) or Google Calendar (via REST API). It's one-way: the davis planner to calendar. When you complete a recurring task, a permanent "done" event is created in your calendar as history.
It's powered by Claude (Anthropic) with 16 tools that can read and modify your tasks. Say "move groceries to Saturday", "what's overdue this week?", or "create a packing list for my trip". Pro plan includes 150 AI messages per billing cycle.
Not yet — data import is on our roadmap. You can export all your tasks as JSON anytime. For now, the quickest way to get started is to create your lists fresh or use the AI chatbot to help organise.
30+ keyboard shortcuts inspired by the Vim text editor: j/k to navigate, o to create, dd to delete, Tab to indent, m to move, / to search. If you've never used Vim, don't worry — the app works perfectly with mouse and touch too. But if you have, you'll fly.
Email support@thedavisplanner.com — we respond within 24 hours. Plus and Pro users can also use the in-app AI chatbot to ask questions about features and shortcuts.
