Description

Ikiru is a simple but powerful app for making lists, keeping notes and setting reminders. It aims to help you live a productive and meaningful life, by enabling you to focus on the things that are most important to you.

IKIRU IS VERSATILE
Use it to create to do lists, shopping lists, take notes, store contact information, keep track of books to read, or movies to watch... or anything else you'd want to make a list for.

IKIRU IS BEAUTIFUL
With a clean and easy to use design, choose from over 2000 icons to assign to your lists.

IKIRU IS POWERFUL
- create lists within lists
- assign a due date and reminder to list items
- view all items with a due date in one convenient timeline
- add a photo to list items
- drag and drop to sort list items, or automatically keep a list sorted alphabetically, by modification date, completion date, and more
- easily copy or move items from one list to another
- mark items incomplete to return them to their original position in the list (this makes lists easy to reuse)
- send a list via email, and the receiver can import your list into their copy of Ikiru
- view items with due dates on your Apple Watch

IKIRU KEEPS YOUR DATA SAFE
- automatically back up and sync lists between iOS devices using iCloud
- use Touch ID or a custom passcode to protect your information

IKIRU HAS PURPOSE
The word "ikiru" (ee-kee-roo) means "to live" in Japanese. It's also the title of an Akira Kurosawa film about a man who decides to do something meaningful with his life. Ikiru (the app) is my attempt at doing something meaningful with my life, and hopefully help others live meaningful and productive lives.

IKIRU HAS HISTORY
In 2010 I released a list-making app called "Paperless". From busy moms to airplane pilots to people who needed a little help remembering things after suffering a brain injury, Paperless has been used by hundreds of thousands of people worldwide. Ikiru is built upon that legacy - incorporating the best ideas from Paperless, greatly improving upon them, and adding big features that people have requested.

Great app. Well worth it.

Love it

50/50

I like the changes but I feel you've taken some of the things that worked well from Paperless and removed them. Like: - Colour! Bring back some colour! Blue on blue is boring! - Keep the icon search as the related icons aren't always the best match and I don't fancy scrolling through ALL icons to find one that suits - Bring back the check off circles. I know we can just swipe right for checked off items but I want the option:)

All the extras I wished Paperless had are in Ikiru

Great app - that’s sadly stopped synching, and zero response from support

PaulOgden on

I’ve loved and used this app now for years. Suddenly, it’s stopped synching across devices. I’ve removed and reinstalled it several times, ensured I’m on all current OS versions, quadruple checked that all synch settings are on, and written the support email four times asking for guidance, each time ignored. It’ll be a shame to delete the app, which is now useless, as is their help line.

Lacks punch for serious writers

There’s still no formatting after all this time. Last I checked, this is an all-around note taking and list making app. Formatted text is crucial in apps like this to create punch. You need bold, italics, underlines, and strike-throughs at the very least but bullets would be nice too. Formatting must be really hard to code for but c’mon already. This app has been around long enough to add these crucial features. The developer seems really nice, so hopefully he’ll take this request seriously. I’m raising my rating to 3-stars I hope that an update comes soon, but it can’t be higher than that without formatting.

Great app but needs updating

Skeptical in Cincinnati, OH on

I have been using this app for years. It’s a great note taking app. I love it’s functionality and simplicity. However both my spouse and I have noticed a problem with current notes that are either not saving properly or deleting themselves. Another Ikiru reviewer complained about something similar happening with their notes. I am concerned that this app is not being monitored enough to keep up with iPhone updates. Unfortunately due to the app becoming glitchy I am going to look for a replacement.

Paperless was better

TaylorPlayer on

I had the original list app Paperless from this developer and enjoyed it. He changed everything when he stopped Paperless and launched Ikiru. I got it to support his work but I’ve never liked it nearly as much as Paperless and rarely use it. I see that an update is supposed to be in the works. I hope some of the color and utility of the old app returns.

No formatting! Enough said.

Ikiru loosing functionality

bobvon on

United States

Love the program, love its structure, e.g. the ability to have a heading with subheadings and subheadings to the subheadings, To Do’s listed in chronological order, etc. However, some Ikiru features no longer function, such as automatic data sync upon closing, return to the the last view when reopening, etc. I can only attribute this to the fact that there have been several changes to Apple’s operating system and Ikiru has not kept up; there have been no updates for too long. For this reason, I’m now hesitant to entrust important information to Ikiru in case the next major Apple operating system update leaves Ikiru inoperable

Love Ikiru

It’s a simple to use app with lots of features. Can have several folders all on the home screen with sub folders. Can import or take pictures easily for a specific topic.
