The key

Notation simplified

Learn these six marks to recognize what needs doing, what's happening and what's on your mind.

Task
Something to do. Tap the dot to finish it.
Done
Finished, and crossed out where you can still see it.
Migrated
Moved to another day, with the original kept as a record.
Scheduled
Set aside for a future date, waiting until it arrives.
Event
Something that happened, or is happening. Nothing to tick off.
Note
A thought worth keeping, with no action attached.

Features

Quick to write in. Calm to look at.

Everything a daily log needs, and nothing that turns it into a project.

  • Add anything fast

    Type a line and press Return. Add “friday at 3pm” and DotLog sets the day and time. Hold + to pick an event or a note.

  • Migrate on purpose

    Unfinished tasks move forward to today, or wait for you to decide. Nothing slips by quietly.

  • Day, month and future

    A daily log, a monthly log for goals, and a future log for everything after.

  • Things that repeat

    Daily, weekdays, weekly, monthly or yearly. A fresh copy appears on the day, and only one is ever open.

  • Reminders

    Give any item a time and DotLog will nudge you when it comes around.

  • Synced through iCloud

    Your log follows you between iPhone, iPad and Mac, with no account to make.

  • Keyboard first on Mac

    A panel that drops down from the menu bar. ⌃⌥⌘D opens it from any app, and every action has a shortcut.

  • Widgets

    Today’s open tasks on your Home Screen and desktop. Tap one to check it off.

  • Search everything

    Find any task, event or note across every day and month you have written.

Screens

Your day, your month, and everything after.

Swipe between days, plan the month, and park the rest in the future log.

Questions

Good to know

Do I need an account?

No. DotLog works the moment you open it. If you use iCloud, your log syncs between your devices through your own iCloud account, with nothing extra to sign up for.

Does it work offline?

Yes. Everything is stored on your device first, so DotLog is just as quick on a plane. Changes sync the next time you are online.

I have never kept a bullet journal. Is that a problem?

Not at all. A dot is a task, an asterisk is an event, and a line is a note. A short tour shows you the rest the first time you open the app.

Which devices does it run on?

iPhone and iPad with iOS 26 or later, and Mac with macOS 26 or later.

Can anyone else see my log?

No. Your entries stay on your devices and in your private iCloud storage. We never see them. The privacy policy has the detail.
