LiveIt is a personal planning app built around time blocking, with tools for tasks, goals, recurring tasks, habits, notes, journaling, and focus sessions. It syncs with Google and Apple calendars and works offline using local-first storage, syncing when a connection is available. The free plan includes unlimited items and entries, core planning, journaling, notes, habits, sync, offline access, and all platforms; it has no ads. LiveIt is available on Android, iOS, macOS, Windows, and the web. Journaling supports multiple timelines, mood tracking, photo attachments, and quick capture. Notes come in text, outline, and collection formats, with bi-directional links; habit tracking includes daily targets, subtasks, streaks, KPIs, and goal links. Users can export their data, while photos and attachments sync through existing Google Drive or iCloud storage. Pro costs $19.99 per year and includes a 14-day trial, end-to-end encryption, a built-in timer, advanced task features, and priority support. A Lifetime plan costs $99.00 once and includes Pro features and future updates. Each person needs an account; LiveIt is designed for individuals, not teams.
