Talk into your phone. KeptMind listens, sorts your thoughts into clear next steps, and nudges you only when it matters.
Speak the task, set the date, and it shows up in Apple Calendar. The gap between the thought and the calendar slot closes to under 15 seconds. Native iOS integration via Calendar.app means events appear on iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, and Mac without additional setup or third-party connectors. The result feels like a feature Apple should have shipped natively but never did.
KeptMind writes dated tasks to a KeptMind calendar in Apple Calendar — visible in Calendar.app on iPhone, iPad, and Mac. The calendar appears alongside your existing iCloud, Exchange, or Google calendars in a single view.
Siri and Shortcuts can also trigger KeptMind voice capture — so you can say "Hey Siri, add to KeptMind" without unlocking your phone, and the task lands in both KeptMind and Apple Calendar.
The technical layer uses CalDAV via the iOS EventKit framework. No browser extension, no third-party connector — the integration uses the same API that Apple's own Calendar.app uses internally.
iPhone lock screen capture: hold the action button → speak → task in KeptMind and Apple Calendar in under 10 seconds. No unlock required for the input; the calendar update happens in the background.
Apple Watch support: KeptMind can receive tasks dictated from Apple Watch complications — useful for capture during exercise when your phone is not accessible.
For users in the Apple ecosystem (iPhone + Mac + iPad + Watch), the calendar appears synchronously on every device. Adding a task by voice on the phone shows it on the Mac calendar within seconds. The seamless multi-device experience is a key reason Apple Calendar users prefer this integration over manual transfers.
Tasks without a due date do not appear in Apple Calendar — they live in KeptMind's Today and backlog lists. Only tasks with an explicit date and time create calendar events. This keeps your calendar clean: only real time commitments appear.
Completed tasks are marked done in KeptMind and the corresponding calendar event is removed or marked as completed — no ghost events staying on your calendar after the fact.
KeptMind requests Calendar access via the standard iOS permissions dialog. We read only events you have created via KeptMind plus events on calendars you have explicitly granted access to. We do not read events on other calendars or read attached file metadata.
For users with sensitive calendars (medical, legal, restricted contexts), iOS calendar permissions are per-calendar — you can enable KeptMind for personal calendars only and keep work or sensitive calendars excluded from sync.
Voice capture in transit → automatic calendar entry → arrive at desk and the schedule is already updated. The most common Apple Calendar pattern is the iPhone-to-Mac handoff: speak on the move, edit on the desktop, never re-enter the same task in two places.
For medical and family appointments, the workflow benefits from the Family Sharing pattern: capture in KeptMind, sync to your personal calendar, share that calendar with family via iCloud Family Sharing. The thought goes from your head to the household calendar in two steps, with no manual transfer.
For users who manage events in shared calendars (work team calendars, club rotations), KeptMind writes to a dedicated KeptMind calendar by default. Move events manually to shared calendars when ready — the system does not assume you want personal captures visible to other family members or coworkers without explicit consent.
