Timeline thinking, designed exclusively for iOS

Turn scattered moments into a timeline you can actually use.

Timelined helps you capture events, add context, and see how everything connects. Build personal histories, track projects, document journeys, or organise important records in one clear place.

Designed for iPhone and iPad but also runs on Apple silicon Macs.

  • Capture rich events

    Store dates, notes, links, photos and location details together.

  • Stay flexible

    Support precise dates, ranges, uncertain timing and evolving timelines.

  • Find what matters

    Use filters to focus on the part of the timeline you need most.

Why Timelined works

Less clutter, more context.

Instead of scattering information across notes, calendars, photos and bookmarks, Timelined keeps each event together so you can understand what happened and when.

It is designed for people who need a timeline that feels calm, structured and flexible enough for real stories, not just rigid date entries.

Main features

Everything you need to build a meaningful timeline.

Rich event capture

Create events with titles, notes and supporting details so each moment carries the context you need later.

Flexible dates

Work with exact dates, wider ranges or less certain timing without forcing every event into the same shape.

Maps, links and photos

Attach locations, websites, documents and images to turn a simple record into something easier to revisit and understand.

Filters and focus

Narrow in on the events that matter right now instead of losing the thread in a longer timeline.

What sets Timelined apart

Built for timelines with structure, not just lists of dates.

Timelined is especially strong when events belong together, when you need to surface a specific slice of life quickly, and when your records need to stay usable over time.

Parent and child events

Group related events under a larger parent event, such as a trip with all the places visited inside it, or a house move with viewings, paperwork, completion and settling-in milestones beneath it.

Advanced filtering that stays useful

Use flexible filtering to cut through busy timelines and focus on the events that matter for the task in front of you, whether that is health records, family history, car maintenance or anything related to your home.

Save filters for quick retrieval

Keep important views ready to hand so you can return instantly to your most useful collections instead of rebuilding the same search every time.

Key use cases

A timeline tool for real lives, projects and stories.

Timelined is broad enough for personal use and structured enough for detailed record-keeping. Here are a few of the clearest ways to use it.

Personal journaling

Capture milestones, memories and life events in a format that makes patterns and progress easier to see.

Family and relationship history

Organise the sequence of important moments, people and places without relying on scattered notes.

Project and case records

Track progress, decisions and turning points across longer periods so nothing important gets lost.

Travel, research and documentation

Build richer event histories with places, links and media that bring each entry back to life.

Built to adapt

Timelines are rarely tidy. Timelined is ready for that.

Timelined is designed to flex around the way people actually organise their information. You can shape the structure around your own categories, types, tags and people, then control how much or how little detail appears in the timeline view itself.

Custom settings

Add and customise reusable categories, event types, tags and people so the app reflects your own way of organising events.

Automation friendly

Use the URL scheme to create and open events programmatically when you want Timelined to fit into a wider workflow.

Rich supporting detail

Keep websites, places, notes and media attached to the right event instead of split across multiple tools.

Clearer reviewing

Choose exactly how much information is shown in the timeline so you can keep the view minimal or make it rich with supporting context.
