Events
When you mention a meeting, call, or event with a date in your recording, TellDone automatically creates a calendar event. Up to 3 events per note.
Event list

The Events tab groups your events by time:
- Today - events happening today
- Tomorrow - events for tomorrow
- This week - the rest of the week
- Later - future events beyond this week
- Past - events that already happened
You can also filter by status: Upcoming, Past, or Cancelled.
Event detail

Tap an event to see:
- Title and description
- Date and time
- Location - if you mentioned a place (e.g., "meeting at Zoom" or "lunch at Cafe Roma")
- Status: Confirmed, Tentative, or Cancelled
- Attendees - if you mentioned people in your recording
- Recurrence - if the AI detected a repeating pattern
- Link to source note - see the original recording
Location
If you mention a place in your voice note, TellDone extracts it as the event location. This works for physical addresses, venue names, and virtual meeting platforms like Zoom or Google Meet.
All-day events
Say "all day" or "the whole day" and TellDone creates an all-day event without specific start and end times. Useful for holidays, deadlines, or day-long activities.
Recurrence
TellDone supports recurring events: daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly. Say "every Monday" or "weekly team meeting" and TellDone creates a recurring event with the correct pattern. The recurrence rule is shown in the event detail view.
Update events by voice (follow-up)
Open any event and tap Follow-up to record an update. The AI understands the event context and can:
- Cancel the event - say "this meeting is cancelled"
- Reschedule - say "move this to 3pm" (duration is preserved)
- Change the location - say "we're meeting at the coffee shop instead"
See Follow-up recordings for details.
Event status management
Events have three statuses: Confirmed (green), Tentative (orange), and Cancelled (gray). You can cancel or restore events from the detail view. Cancelled events remain in your list under the "Cancelled" filter so you can restore them later if needed.
Calendar sync
Apple Calendar (iOS)
TellDone can sync events directly to your Apple Calendar:
- Go to Settings > Integrations
- Enable Apple Calendar
- Grant calendar permission when prompted
- New events from your recordings appear in your calendar automatically
This is a local integration - data stays on your device.
Event reminders
- Set notifications before events start
- Multiple reminder times are supported per event - for example, 15 minutes before and 1 hour before
- Push notifications appear on your iOS device
Mention reminder times in your recording: "remind me 15 minutes before and an hour before." TellDone will set both reminders automatically.
Mention specific dates and times in your recordings for the most accurate event creation. "Meeting with Alex on Friday at 2 PM" works better than "meeting with Alex sometime next week."
