Two apps, one feed, zero switching.
Ligature stitches Apple Reminders and your Markdown vault into one focused daily view — and turns the things you finish into notes worth keeping.
Tasks flow in. Finished work flows out as notes.
Three moves that close the gap.
The whole day, on one page.
Reminders grouped into Today and Tonight, with your most recent and pinned notes beside them — so you always know what’s next without leaving the app.
Capture without breaking stride.
Add a note from anywhere — the Ligature app, a share sheet, or Siri. Capture your thoughts when you have them and use Ligature to act on them or move them to your notes.
Finish a task — keep the story.
Complete a reminder and Ligature can write it straight into your vault as Markdown with frontmatter and tags.
Native speed, with six ways to feel at home.
A native Swift app with six curated themes, three light and three dark.
Everything you’re wondering.
Do I need to use Obsidian for my notes?
No. Obsidian is entirely optional. Ligature reads and writes plain Markdown files in a folder you choose — if that folder happens to be an Obsidian vault, wikilinks and tags light up. If not, you still get clean .md files you own forever.
How does it work with Apple Reminders?
Ligature talks to your real Reminders database through Apple’s EventKit, the same system Siri and the Lock Screen use. Anything you add by voice, on your watch, or in the Reminders app shows up in Ligature — and anything you finish here syncs straight back.
Where are my notes stored?
In a folder on your Mac or iCloud Drive, as ordinary Markdown with YAML frontmatter. There is no proprietary database and no lock-in — open them in any editor, back them up however you like.
Is my data private?
Everything stays on your devices. Reminders sync through your own iCloud account; notes sync through whatever you already use for your vault. Ligature has no servers and collects nothing.
What do I need to run it?
Ligature is a native Swift app for iPhone and iPad on iOS 17 or later, and for Mac on macOS 26 (Tahoe). It’s a free download, and the same app works across all your devices.
Bring your day back together.
Ligature is free on iPhone, iPad and Mac. No account, no subscription — and your files always stay yours.
