Quick answer

Todo, agenda, journal and notes in plain Markdown files

PlaneTxt is an opinionated, future-proof app to manage your life in plain text: todo, agenda, journal and notes.

Everything is stored as Markdown files in a folder you choose. One daily file per day holds your journal, todos and events; notes live in subfolders. There is no database and no lock-in: sync the folder with Syncthing, Dropbox or anything else, and edit the files with any text editor.

Features:

- Month calendar with the Markdown content of the selected day below it - Check and uncheck todos with a tap - Refill: carry unfinished todos over to today - Notes browser with search and rename - Home screen widget showing today's agenda and todos - Reminders through local notifications - Light and dark themes - No account, no tracking, no network access

File layout:

- dailies/20250128.md - archives/ - notes/Work/project.md

How to install

  1. Download the APK from the button at the top of this page.
  2. Allow “Install unknown apps” for your browser or file manager only, not for every app.
  3. Open the downloaded file and confirm the installation.
  4. If installation fails with “App not installed,” remove an earlier build of the same app first. A signature conflict is the usual cause.
