Paper planner app
WeekPad is the closest thing to a paper planner on your iPhone
WeekPad is a digital paper agenda for iPhone and iPad: one week per page, Monday to Sunday, with room to write under each day. It is an app like a paper planner rather than a calendar or a task manager, and it keeps the quiet that made paper worth carrying.
Why WeekPad can say that
WeekPad is a weekly planner app for iPhone and iPad, and it earns the comparison to paper by keeping the same constraints a paper agenda keeps. You see one week at a time and you swipe to turn the page, the way you would with a printed week-to-view planner. WeekPad sends no notifications at all — not fewer, none — and it keeps no streaks, so nothing in it ever asks for your attention. It works entirely offline, and there is no account to create, because WeekPad has no accounts and no servers of ours at all.

Where paper still wins, honestly
WeekPad is not a calendar: there are no time slots, no invitations and no reminders. There is no stylus or Apple Pencil handwriting in WeekPad — you type — but you can photograph or scan handwritten notes straight onto the day they belong to. And WeekPad Sync is not a backup: it keeps your devices matching each other, so a deletion travels with everything else. Your own Exports are the only backup.
What a week-to-view page looks like in WeekPad
Each week is a single page. You write in plain text under any day, add bullets, and use literal "[ ]" and "[x]" checklists when something needs ticking off. A week-level notes area holds the thoughts that don't belong to one day. Photos, document scans, sticky-note snaps and files sit on the day they belong to, and you can share something into WeekPad from another app.
Images are optimized automatically — resized to a crisp on-screen size, compressed to about a megabyte, and converted from Apple HEIC to widely-readable JPEG — so a year of photographed notes stays light.
Keeping several agendas
Keep as many agendas as you like — WeekPad doesn't count them. Work, Personal, Sport and health, Journaling, Projects: each is its own notebook and they never mix. Getting the app is all it takes, and it includes every agenda, every feature, and every bit of it offline. WeekPad Sync is the one optional subscription and it only adds syncing.
Start with this week
Getting WeekPad from the App Store gives you the whole app offline — as many agendas as you like, with notes, photos, checklists, search and Export. WeekPad Sync is the one optional subscription, and it only adds syncing. The agendas you've already written stay yours to read and edit.
