you'd say it.

Less, on purpose

All of that, or just your day.

Before: a busy task app full of menus, filters, count badges, labels, flags, avatars and an upgrade banner, with six everyday tasks buried in it. After: the same six tasks as Pip shows them for tomorrow, one line each with nothing around them: Call the garage, Renew the insurance for the car, Send Ana the photos, Pick up the parcel at 17:30, Water the plants, Book a table for Saturday.

The same six tasks, down to the parcel at 17:30. Nothing else asking for your attention.

Capture

Days, times, projects, tags.

No forms, no date pickers. Write one line and Pip picks out the day, the time, the project and the tags. The line under your words shows what it understood, before you keep it.

  • Call the garage tomorrow morningTomorrow · 09:00
  • Renew the insurance for car fri 3pmFriday · 15:00 · Car
  • Plan the week tonightThis evening · 21:00
  • Pay the electricity bill deadline 14 octInbox · deadline 14 Oct
  • Buy paint this weekend #flatSaturday · #flat
  • Learn to make bread somedaySomeday

Days, times, “for” or “in” a project, #tags, deadlines, someday. Anything Pip doesn't recognise stays in the title, exactly as you typed it.

iPhone

The dot, in your pocket.

On iPhone the dot is big and sits where your thumb already is. Tap it, and the Dynamic Island answers.

  1. 01The dot waits at the bottom right, where your thumb already is.
  2. 02Tap it. The island answers.
  3. 03Say it. The island grows into the capture panel, and the words Pip understands turn orange.
  4. 04Return keeps it. The island confirms, and the task drops into its place.
  5. 05Tick it off. The ring fills, and the day counts down.
  6. 06Your lists slide in from the left edge.
  7. 07A note opens from the right, with the tasks about it.
  8. 08And today waits on your Home Screen.

A live iPhone preview of Pip's Today stream, with the orange dot at the bottom right. As you scroll, the dot is tapped and the Dynamic Island answers, then grows into a dark capture panel above the keyboard. "Call the garage at 5pm" types itself, "at 5pm" turns orange, and Pip shows it understood: Today, 17:00. Return keeps it: the island shrinks to a confirmation, and the task drops along a dotted path into the stream. Then "Client call prep" is ticked off, the lists sheet slides in from the left edge, the note "Lisbon in May" opens from the right with the task about it, and the phone goes to a Home Screen with Pip's widgets. With reduced motion, the phone shows the capture panel with the sentence typed.

On the App Store · screens drawn after the app

The iPhone app is a free download on the App Store, with the Say it widget and Add to Pip for Siri and the Action button. Pro adds the Today widgets, the Live Activity in the Dynamic Island and reminders, and keeps your tasks and notes the same on your iPhone, Mac and PC.

Notes

Notes are files you own.

Pip makes a folder called Pip Notes, wherever you want it. Every note inside is a plain Markdown file. Open them in any editor. If you keep the folder in iCloud Drive or OneDrive it follows you to your other computers, and you back it up like any other folder. If you ever stop using Pip, your notes stay exactly where they are.

Plain Markdown

Readable in any editor, today and in twenty years.

A folder you choose

Documents, OneDrive, iCloud Drive, Dropbox, or anywhere else.

Nothing hidden

Pip reads and writes the files, and that’s all it does. There’s no hidden format and nothing to export.

The notch

One dot for everything.

Tasks and notes go in the same way. Start a line with note and it becomes a Markdown file. Start with folder and you get a folder. Anything else is a task.

Example: typing “note Paint colours in Home” makes a new note called Paint colours in the Home folder.

At rest

A small dot at the top of the screen, out of the way until you need it.

Held

Half a thought? Press Esc. The dot turns hollow and keeps your line for later.

Open

One line in, one line kept. Tasks land in the stream, notes land in Pip Notes.

Pricing

Free on one device.
Pro for everywhere else.

Pip is free on one computer and on your iPhone, with no account and no time limit. Pro keeps your tasks and notes the same on every device; sync costs money to run, so that’s the part you pay for. On the iPhone, Pro is bought in the app through Apple; on the Mac and PC, in Pip through Lemon Squeezy.

Questions

Short answers.

Can I use Pip yet?

Yes. Pip is free on the App Store for iPhone, on the Microsoft Store for Windows 10 and 11, and a free download for Mac (macOS 13 or later, Apple silicon and Intel). It also runs in your browser at app.pipdot.app.

Where is my data?

On your computer. Tasks live in Pip's own small database on your device, and notes are Markdown files in your Pip Notes folder.

If you turn on sync with Pro, your tasks are also stored with Supabase in Frankfurt, in the EU, so your devices can share them. More about notes below, and in the privacy notice.

Where are my notes? Can Pip read them?

Your notes are plain Markdown files in your Pip Notes folder, on your computer. On Free, Pip never uploads them. If you keep the folder in your own iCloud Drive or OneDrive, that service carries it to your other computers. That works on desktop only, not in the browser or on iPhone.

With Pro, Pip syncs your notes itself, so they're the same on Windows, Mac, iPhone and the browser. Synced notes are stored in the EU and encrypted at rest, but they are not end-to-end encrypted. That means our systems can technically read them, so we only access them to keep the service running or when you ask us to help. We don't sell data or show ads.

Do I need an account?

On your computer, no. Free works without one, and you only make one when you start Pro, so your devices can find each other.

On the iPhone, no account either. An account is for Pro and for joining a shared project.

In the browser, yes, because a browser can clear what it stores. On Free your tasks and notes still live in that browser; with Pro they’re kept with your account too, so clearing the browser loses nothing. Either way it’s your email address and a code we send you. No password to remember.

What does Pro pay for?

Mostly the servers. Keeping your tasks and notes the same on your iPhone, Mac and PC costs money every month, and Pro pays for that, plus the Today widgets, the Live Activity, reminders and sharing your projects. The app itself stays free, on the iPhone too, and joining a shared project is free.

Are you taking payments?

On the iPhone, yes: Pro is sold by Apple inside the app, and Apple handles the payment and any refund. On the Mac and PC, Pro is sold in Pip through Lemon Squeezy, with a full refund within 14 days of any payment. The refund policy covers both.

Is there an Android app?

Not planned for now. Pip is on the iPhone, the Mac, Windows, and in the browser on a computer. If that changes, this page will say so.
