Novaplan is a project planner built around your drawings. Pin tasks and milestones to the floor plan, sketch or sheet they belong to, then switch to a ledger or a live timeline whenever you need the numbers.
PLAN RIGHT ON THE DRAWING
• Pin task cards and milestone diamonds to any spot on a sheet
• Drag dimension lines to change a task's duration
• Dependency connectors show what's waiting on what, with the critical path in orange
FOUR LENSES, ONE PLAN
• Outline: phases and tasks at a glance
• Sheet: your plan on top of the drawing
• Ledger: a fast table of every task, date and day of slack
• Span: a timeline with the critical path and today's line
LITE CAD AND APPLE PENCIL
• Lines, polylines, rectangles, circles, arcs, text and dimensions
• Grid, ortho, endpoint, midpoint and centre snaps
• Real units and scales (mm, cm, m, in, ft-in; 1:50 and more)
• Move, rotate, scale, mirror, offset and trim
• Natural Apple Pencil ink on its own layer
• Export sheets as PDF, SVG or DXF
STAY AHEAD OF CHANGES
• Slip preview: see the new finish date before you commit a delay
• Revisions: snapshot the plan as Rev A, B, C
• See every moved date and re-timed task since the last revision
• Compare a sheet with a revision; ghost cards show where work used to be
FOCUS ON TODAY
• Your Site shows every project's progress, what's due this week and what's overdue
• The Bench holds just three tasks, so you always know what comes next
EVERYWHERE YOU WORK
• Native apps for iPhone, iPad and Mac
• Private iCloud sync between your devices
• Keyboard shortcuts and a command bar on iPad and Mac
• Nebula dark and Daylight light themes
• English, French and Hindi

This is by far the best planner I’ve found. I need something for my wood projects and this surprised me with its dimensions, and drawing functions. I love having my tasks show on my drawings! You must give this a try.

Replaces my notebook journal
mborel0410
I tried a digital bullet journal app after getting my new iPad and am very satisfied with this app. It has replaced my analog bullet journal and provides the functionality I need for my daily tracking activities and planning. I like being able to use templates for month and week spreads as it makes it easier to browse. I will be continuing my subscription to this app.

Thank you for the positive review!
Updated Review
John Ridpath
[Update]The developer reached out to me addressed the issues I had. The first issue with creating a journal was due to me not selecting an image first. Since this was not shown as being a requirement, I did not go through that step. As for the subscription issue, I was able to fix it by unsubscribing and removing the app, and then resubscribing and reinstalling. He said he would investigate it further. After using the app for several days and I think there are some more things that can be done to improve the UX. Right now I would say it is functional and useable though. I would say its a good 3.5 stars, with another half a star for the developer's quick response. The developer was very responsive to my feedback and I think with a few more tweaks this will be a stellar app. [Original]I can't create a journal. The add journal button is greyed out even after entering a journal name. It says I'm not subscribed even though my subscription status is active. There is no support link on the developer’s site and it looks like the only way to reach out is through Twitter, and I don’t do Twitter or any other social media. I can live with a few bugs but this app is unusable in this state.

Thank you for the updated review! We are constantly working to improve the app, and your feedback has been invaluable. [original]Did you add a journal image? The add journal button will be grey if you don’t add the image. Also you can send support request to support@bujojournal.com. Very curious about the subscription problem you are experiencing.
Drawing and doodling, and taking notes is fun with this app!

This is considered a bullet journal app but I am an artist and really enjoy using this to draw and keep things organized. The notes section is really good, it helps me keep lists of what I want to draw next. I highly recommend this app for any one looking for a journal or a drawing app. 🙂

Thank you for this positive review!
You can now remove measurements from a drawing: tap one with Erase, or select it and delete it. Selection boxes pick up measurements too.
