SynoteA calendar app is a place to store plans. A scheduling assistant does the planning work: it turns what you say into correctly dated events, notices what's missing, and keeps your week consistent. That's what Synote is — an assistant that lives inside your calendar.
What you can say to Synote
From that one line Synote creates two events: a one-off dentist appointment this Friday from 3 to 4pm, and a weekly gym session on Mondays from 6 to 7pm. Some other things it handles:
- Several plans at once — “Lunch with Sara Tuesday 12:30, call the bank tomorrow morning, pick up groceries after work.”
- Repeats — every day, every weekday, every other week, the first Monday of the month.
- To-dos — “Renew passport by the end of the month” becomes a task with a due date, not a fake meeting.
- Changes — “Move my dentist to next Wednesday.”
- Questions — “What's my busiest day this week?” or “Am I free Saturday afternoon?”
Three ways in: type, speak or snap
- TypeWrite it like a message. Synote reads natural dates — “next Friday”, “tomorrow evening”, “every other Tuesday”.
- SpeakSay it out loud when your hands are busy; Synote turns your voice into the same events.
- SnapPhotograph a timetable, poster or invitation and Synote extracts the events. More on photo-to-calendar →
It asks instead of guessing
Most mistakes in calendars come from guessed details. If you say “team lunch Thursday” without a time, Synote asks “What time is the team lunch?” instead of inventing noon. You always see a preview of what it understood, and nothing is saved until you tap Save.
Synote vs. a regular calendar app
| Regular calendar app | Synote | |
|---|---|---|
| Adding an event | Fill in title, date, start, end, repeat and reminder fields | One sentence, a voice note or a photo |
| Many events at once | One at a time | As many as you list, in one message |
| Missing details | Defaults silently (often wrong) | Asks a short question |
| Clashes | You notice later | Checked before saving |
| Finding things | Scroll and search | Ask: “When is my next dentist appointment?” |
Who it's for
- Busy professionals who think of plans in the middle of something else.
- Students juggling classes, exams and part-time work — see the AI planner for students.
- Parents keeping school, sports and appointments straight.
- Anyone who has a calendar but doesn't keep it up to date because entering things is a chore.
Frequently asked questions
What is an AI scheduling assistant?
It's an app that turns plans written or spoken in everyday language into calendar events. Instead of filling in forms, you say “dentist Friday at 3pm” and the assistant works out the date, time, duration and repeats, then asks you to confirm.
Is Synote available on iPhone?
Yes. Synote is available on the App Store for iPhone.
Can Synote schedule recurring events?
Yes — daily, weekly, every other week, weekdays only, monthly and more. Say it naturally, such as “gym every Monday and Thursday at 6pm”.
Does Synote save anything without my confirmation?
No. You see a preview of every event first, and nothing is saved until you tap Save.
Which languages does Synote understand?
English, French, Japanese and Persian.
