How it works
Inklings is a bullet journal you type. Each day is a page. Each line starts with a bullet that says what it is. Tasks don't get lost: anything left open waits until you decide.
Write a line
Start it with a bullet. That's the whole notation. The app draws it, and it stays plain text underneath.
. Call the vet | A task. Tap its dot to tick it. |
x Paid rent | Done. |
o Party at 7 | An event. |
- Slept well | A note. |
* . Call the vet | A priority. |
# Books | A collection: a list of its own. |
The life of a task

Write it
On today's page:

Not done? It waits
The next day it waits at the top of Today, marked "from yesterday". You choose:
- Today brings it onto today's page. The old line is marked
<, so the day it came from still shows it. - Later sets it aside. It's marked
>and waits in Later, on the calendar. - Let go takes it out. Undo brings it back.
- Today brings it onto today's page. The old line is marked

Put it on a day
On the calendar, pick a task up from Later and put it on a day. On that day it's on Today's page.
Nothing open is ever lost. Every task is done, on a day, in Later, or let go.
You type the lines, Inklings draws the list
A heading starts a collection: a list, a tracker, a tally, a mood, recipes, chores. Inklings reads the lines under it and draws them for what they are. This one is a tally. Tap + for a glass.
Look back
The review gathers the events of a month or a year. On this day shows what you wrote on this date in earlier years, right on Today, whenever there's something.
