I'm looking for an app which appears to be a standard diary; for example, a week to view. It needs to be able to accept hand written notes. I also want to be able to organise daily tasks.

Thanks.

Best solution I have found is to get out the the midset of needing a single utopian app and embrace separate best of breed apps and learn how easy it is to switch between them efficiently!

Calendar / Notes / Reminders are great basic in-built apps.

but for me...

iPlan (calendar) / Notability (hand written notes) / OmniFocus (todo) is the killer combination.

I also throw in Evernote (for text heavy notes), and Reminders still gets used daily too :)

What's so special about iplan? Doesn't seem to have a killers over native app...

Clearer UI, more configurable, integrated weather, customisable colour coding of calendars, better views. Everything a better calendar app should have! :D

Does the app use icloud? I doubt it...

The app uses / front-ends the iPad calendar, so yes... since my iPad calendar uses iCloud, everything you do using iPlan is reflected in your iCloud calendar across all my devices. That's the point!
