Timely
Plan your week. Then execute it.
A native macOS calendar app that reimagines how you interact with your schedule. Your calendar should be where you get things done — not just where you look at what's coming. Built by a solo developer who was frustrated with every existing calendar app.
Free for offline use. Paid sync coming soon.
Built for people who live in their calendar
Every feature exists because something about existing calendar apps felt broken.
Sidebar-first editing
No popups, no modals. One focal point for everything.
Infinite timeline
Time flows continuously. No page-by-page navigation.
Meeting notes
Per-event markdown notes, private and local, one click away.
Your day, your start
Configure your start hour. The app scrolls there automatically.
Plan & Execute
Timeline for planning, kanban for doing. Execute mode coming soon.
Privacy by default
Data stays on your Mac. Notes will be E2EE when sync launches.
Command palette
Keyboard shortcuts, vim navigation, multiple timezone support.
Quick actions
Join meetings, navigate to locations, take notes, RSVP — from the sidebar.
The Story
The Challenge
Every calendar app treats your schedule as something to look at — a passive grid of events. Google Calendar's popups break your focus. Apple Calendar feels lifeless. Nobody built a calendar for people who actually live in their calendar.
The Solution
Timely puts editing in the sidebar so your attention stays in one place. Meeting notes attach directly to events. Infinite scroll treats time as continuous. Every interaction is designed to feel intentional — from the animation curves to the progressive disclosure that shows only what you need right now.
The Vision
Timely is the foundation of an ecosystem of privacy-first productivity tools. Calendar is just the beginning.
Principles
What's Next
Timely is actively developed. Here's what's coming.
A calendar that finally feels right.
Free to download. No account required. Just open it and go.
