Peggy

Two seconds from
thought to done.

Peggy catches the thing you would otherwise forget on the way to the kitchen. Type it the way you would say it. Peggy reads the date, the time and the repeat, and files it as an event, a task or a note — three things that usually mean three apps.

Capture

Type it the way you would say it

There is one field and it is always on screen. Whatever you type gets read for a date, a time, a repeat, a tag and a priority, on the phone, with no network.

  • No forms. No date picker, no category, no required anything.
  • Every chip is removable. Peggy shows what it understood before you save, and you can drop any part of it.
  • From anywhere. The widget, the quick-settings tile and the share sheet all reach the same field.

Sort

Decide later, in one place

Anything you capture without a date waits on Sort, next to what is overdue, what you snoozed and what you said someday to. It is the only list that ever asks you for a decision.

  • One tap per answer. Today, Tomorrow, This week, Someday, Done.
  • A badge you can trust. It counts what is new, overdue or snoozed, and never nags you about someday.
  • Undo on everything. Including emptying the bin.

Every open decision, with the answer one tap away.

Plan

Your day, in the order it happens

Morning, afternoon, evening, and a place for things with no set time. Zoom out to a week, a month, or everything at once.

  • Habits stay one row. A daily task shows as a single line with the week's progress, not seven copies.
  • Reminders that ring. On the exact minute, after a reboot, and after you land in another time zone.
  • A month at a glance. Dots mark the days with something on them.

Ideas

Notes that keep their shape

A list looks like a list, a stray thought reads as a thought, and a note with a title gets one. Pin what matters and let the rest sit in the grid.

  • Checklists you can tick from the grid. No need to open the note to cross something off.
  • Real writing tools. Headings, bold, bullets and checklists, with markdown shortcuts as you type.
  • Share it out. Send a note anywhere, or copy it as Markdown.

Tags

A tag is the project

There is no second hierarchy to file things into. Any tag has a page that gathers its notes, its tasks and its events together, and pinning a note to it turns that note into the overview.

  • Nothing to set up. Type #kitchen anywhere and the page exists.
  • All three types together. The one thing a notes app cannot do.
  • Capture straight into it. The bar at the bottom of a tag page tags what you write.

Everything else

The parts you only notice when they are missing

Reminders that actually ring

Exact alarms that survive a reboot, a time-zone change and a battery saver. Quiet hours hold anything due overnight until morning.

Undo, never “are you sure?”

Nothing in Peggy stops to ask. Every destructive thing happens at once and offers you a few seconds to take it back.

Capture without opening it

A home-screen widget, a quick-settings tile, and the Android share sheet all drop straight into the same field.

Checklists in any note

Type “[] ” and the line becomes a box. Tick items from the card without opening the note.

Repeats that roll up

Every day, every Monday and Wednesday, every 15th. A habit stays one row on your week instead of seven.

Material You

Colours from your wallpaper, a real dark theme, higher-contrast modes and a reduce-motion switch.

A bin, with a way back

Deleted things wait in the trash for as long as you choose, and restore in one tap.

Your data, in one file

Export everything to JSON whenever you like, import it back, and let a weekly backup run on its own.

Lock it if you want

Require your device unlock to open Peggy, and blank the app-switcher preview.

Built for TalkBack

Labelled controls, headings, swipe actions as real accessibility actions, and touch targets that clear the guidelines.

AI only if you ask

Parsing runs on your phone. If you want more, bring your own Ollama, Claude or OpenAI key — off until you do.

Offline by design

No account, no sync service, no server to be down. Everything works on a plane.

Privacy

It is your phone. It stays that way.

Peggy has no account system, no analytics, no advertising and no server of its own. There is no telemetry to switch off, because none was written. The only way anything leaves your phone is if you turn on an AI provider yourself and pick where it goes.

  • No sign-up. Peggy never asks who you are.
  • No tracking. Nothing counts your taps or reports a crash without you sending it.
  • Your key, your provider. Bring Ollama on your own machine and nothing touches the internet at all.
  • Take it with you. Export everything to a file, any time, and delete it all just as easily.

Questions

Before you install it

Is Peggy free?

Yes. Capturing, planning, sorting and writing are free and stay free.

Do I need an account?

No. There is no sign-up, no email, and no profile. Peggy works the moment you install it.

Where does my data live?

In a database on your phone, and nowhere else. You can export all of it to a file from Settings, and delete all of it from the same place.

What does the AI see?

Nothing, unless you turn it on. Peggy reads dates and times on your phone with no network at all. If you add your own AI provider, only that feature's text goes to the provider you chose — Ollama can even run on your own machine.

Is there an iPhone version?

Not today. Peggy is an Android app for Android 12 and up. There is a desktop build for the same data, which is not published yet.

Why is it in testing?

Google requires a closed test with real testers before a new personal developer account can publish to everyone. Joining the test gets you the app now and helps it reach the store.

Catch the next one.

Peggy is in its closed test on Google Play while it works towards release. Join it and you get the app now.
