About

Alcove keeps your whole day one click away in the Mac menu bar, with iPhone and iPad apps. Press Option-Space in any app and type a task in plain words. Plan on a calendar with an hour grid or on kanban boards, keep notes whose tables total themselves, and tick tasks off from widgets. Reminders can ring like an alarm on iOS 26. Everything syncs through your own iCloud: no account, no ads, no tracking. Free for 14 days, then $29.99 once for Mac, iPhone and iPad.
