Capture reminders in a keystroke.
A lightweight macOS menu-bar app that saves what you type straight into Apple Reminders — no app switching, no lock-in.
Press ⌥⌘R from any app — captured in under 3 seconds.
Built for fast, frictionless capture
Everything you need to jot a task and get back to work — nothing you don't.
Global hotkey
Open the capture panel from any app with ⌥⌘R (rebindable in Preferences).
Never steals focus
A non-activating panel — your current app keeps its focus and window state.
Natural-language syntax
Type a title with #list, @date, !priority and //notes — parsed into chips as you go.
Bilingual dates
Understands English and German: “tomorrow 9am”, “morgen 9 Uhr”, “in zwei Stunden”, “next Monday”.
Recent at a glance
The menu-bar icon shows your five most recently created reminders.
Native & private
No dependencies, no servers. Reminders sync via your iCloud — nowhere else.
One line. Everything set.
Add tokens anywhere in the text — Niblos strips them from the title and fills in the details.
| Token | Meaning | Example |
|---|---|---|
#List | Target list (must already exist) | #Personal |
@… | Due date / time (natural language) | @tomorrow 9am |
! !! !!! | Priority: low / medium / high | !! |
//notes | Everything after // becomes the note | //ask first |
Your tasks stay yours
Niblos writes directly into Apple Reminders and syncs only through your own iCloud — the same sync Reminders already uses. There are no third-party servers and no analytics on your task content.
