What is Pocket Informant?

Pocket Informant is a personal organizer that combines a calendar with tasks, projects, contacts and notes. Its apps, released under the Informant name, run on iPhone, iPad, Android, Mac and the web, and are kept in step by the paid Informant Sync service. The free mobile version is a basic calendar; a subscription adds tasks, projects, contacts, email integration and sync.

Pocket Informant has a free plan. Paid plans start at $3.99 per month, or $29.99 per year. See every plan

Good for

  • People who want calendar, tasks, projects and notes in a single app
  • Task management in the GTD or Franklin Covey style
  • Users who move between iPhone, Android, Mac and a web browser

Worth knowing

  • The free version is a calendar only. Tasks, projects, contacts, sync services and customization need the subscription.
  • The Mac app is a separate $49.99 purchase, and the web app works through an Informant Sync account.
  • There is no Windows app. Windows is covered by a $29.99 Outlook add-in that also needs an Informant Sync subscription.
  • Trial length is stated differently by source: 14 days on the vendor's site and 7 days on the App Store listing.

Key features

Calendar and tasks in one view
Day, stacked-week and month views show events and tasks together. The month view prints each event's name and time in small text instead of a dot.
Projects and task modes
Tasks can be grouped into projects with sub-tasks and checklists, and the task system can be set to Simple, GTD or Franklin Covey style.
Works with existing calendars
Reads the device's native calendars and reminders, so iCloud, Exchange, Microsoft 365 and Google accounts appear without a new account. Direct Google and Toodledo sync needs the subscription.
Natural-language entry
Type or speak a phrase such as a task with a day and time and the entry is filled in. Templates and triggers create frequently used events and tasks.
TravelAssist and geofences
Trips set the time zone for events created during travel, and geofenced locations can filter the calendar or task list and raise arrival and departure alerts.
Informant Sync
A paid sync service that keeps iPhone, iPad, Android, Mac and the web app in step, and connects to Outlook on Windows through a separate add-in.
