is there an iPad/Mac app/web version coming up soon?
It makes your existing data beautiful and more approachable. Very nicely done.
Another nice touch is that it cleverly uses a Reminder's notes field to capture subtasks for a reminder. If you add a hyphen "- " at the start of a line in a Reminder's notes, it will add that as a subtask in Dawn. Genius.
Just fucking beautiful.
Pros:
Design is TIGHT! Syncs with your Calendar and Reminders.
Cons:
Some might balk at the $3.99 USD price. You shouldn't.
Hi Joshua, thanks for the positive review!
You've discovered one of Dawn's secret features, it's how it's able to backup subtasks to Reminders ;)
I'm glad Dawn's design is up to par and has been a great experience, will keep polishing Dawn to remove bugs and add even more features. Wonderful day to you Joshua!

Just bought Dawn and it really is a beautiful app! The idea of a calender + a to-do list really spoke to me but the design is what sold me. It’s a simple, clutter-free app (the reason why I didn’t want to purchase Fantastical or Calendars by Readdle).
Also, adding events is a bit tricky and hidden; hope there’s a simpler way to do this. Maybe you can add the button to switch from to-do/event once you click the + button so you don’t have to edit the time just to change it to an event. Hope this makes sense hahaha.
Can’t wait for the new updates!
@aliah_borromeo Hi Aliah, the reason I developed Dawn was because of my frustrations with existing calendars that just includes too much clutter. The main focus of Dawn will be to be as clean and as functional as possible, nothing more, nothing less!
In terms of the difficulty of adding events, I've got a few suggestion similar to yours and I think it's a great idea, will get it implemented in the future updates. Thanks for the feedback, good day!
I love the design, I bought the app but as a todoist user it's not actually that useful as it is a task manager before a calendar 🙁 maybe in the future you could give more customisation to this end?
@coconidodev Hi Nicolo, very happy you're enjoying the design! I'm very open to develop the app in line with user suggestions, do reach out to me at eric@enulus.com, let me know about what calendar features you would like to see implemented, and I'll do my best to get it developed!
Thanks for reaching out!

No web view and iPhone/iPad only? DOA for a good number of people. Being a heavy Google Calendar user and a Android user, I am obviously not the target user for this but would've considered it if it was available on other platforms.
@arthurgd3 Hi Arthrur, Dawn will no doubt be able to expand to become a standalone application that will get android support and 3rd party calendar direct integration in the future (it’s currently possible to add Google calendar through the native Calendar app and it will be synced accordingly). Hang tight, thanks for your feedback!

1 day in and I like this app a lot. I think 4 bucks is too much though for not having a demo first. I would make that an in app purchase. Any plans to have a mac app?
@nate_davis Hi Nate, very happy you're enjoying Dawn! I'm planning on implementing a free trial plan into Dawn as it has been a pretty popular request. A Mac app is planned for the future but would like to get Dawn stabilized before extending to other platforms. Thanks for the feedback!

Now the app is frozen on the loading screen. Restarting iPhone X worked, but wish you can select "event" OR "to-do" when tapping the "+".
Hi John, terrible sorry about the crashes! Dawn is coming out of the MVP stage and should be stabilized after the upcoming updates. Like the suggestion with initial selection of to-do or event, thanks for the feedback! Never hesitate to contact me at support@enulus.com and I'll personally assist you with any issues you encounter!
