In short
Planifai is an AI calendar for iPhone and iPad, free on the App Store (checked 13 Oct 2026). Type a plan the way you'd say it, check what it fills in, and save. Events, tasks and a focus timer live in one app. It's a planner, not a medical tool, and it has no visual timeline or widgets.
Most planners were designed for a neurotypical brain. They assume you'll stop, open the app, pick a date, tap five fields, and save. For an ADHD brain, each of those steps is an exit ramp. Planifai collapses them into one: type the thought, confirm. That's the whole loop.
ADHD planner app for iPhone: what helps and what doesn't
| What tends to help | What tends to get in the way |
|---|---|
| Capturing a plan in seconds, before the thought goes | Forms with five fields for every event |
| Events and tasks in one view | Switching between a calendar app and a to-do app |
| Reminders you can live with | Alarm-style alerts you learn to dismiss |
| A system that still works after a missed day | Streaks and elaborate setups that collapse after one bad week |
| Checking the plan before it's saved | Tools that move things around without asking |
Based on how people describe planning with ADHD, not on clinical research. What helps varies from person to person.
The problem
Why generic planners fail you.
The thought leaves before you can capture it.
Classic planners require 5–7 interactions per event. ADHD attention doesn't last that long — by step 3, you've forgotten why you opened the app.
Alarms trigger avoidance.
Loud reminders feel like rejection for many ADHD users. You dismiss them, then feel guilty, then avoid the app itself. A vicious loop.
Bullet journals are a trap.
Beautiful spreads, 40 pages, one missed day and the whole system collapses. That's not a planning tool — that's a hobby with high guilt.
Why Planifai fits
Built around how you actually plan.
One-sentence capture.
Open the chat, type “dentist Tuesday 3pm remind me to prep slides the night before” — Planifai pre-fills the event and the task. Total: 1 sentence, 1 tap to confirm.
Gentle reminders, not alarms.
Calm, non-guilt-inducing nudges. They remind you without making you feel chased.
Weekly overview (honest, not pretty).
A 30-second view of where your week went. Not a bullet journal spread — a decision tool.
No streaks, no guilt mechanics.
Planifai never punishes a missed day. The system keeps working when you do, and waits when you don't.
How it works
In three steps.
- 01
Capture fast.
Thought in → chat → sentence. Planifai pre-fills. You tap confirm.
- 02
Let it nudge you gently.
Soft notifications before your events. They remind you without punishing you.
- 03
Review weekly in 2 minutes.
Open the overview. Spot one thing that worked. Spot one thing that didn't. Adjust next week.
Plan your day in one sentence
Open the chat and type the plan as it comes to you. Planifai fills in the event and the task with a date, time and duration; you check them and tap to confirm. Nothing is saved until you do.

Planifai is free on the App Store, with no in-app purchases listed (App Store listing, checked 13 Oct 2026). You don't need an account: start as a guest, or sign in with Apple or Google.
Planif.ai or Tiimo?
Tiimo is a visual planner designed with neurodivergent people in mind, built around a visual timeline of your day. Planifai is text-first: you type the plan in one sentence and confirm. If you think in pictures and want a timeline, Tiimo is likely the better fit. If you'd rather type “gym 6pm” and move on, try Planifai.
