For anyone with the memory of a goldfish.

Goldfish counts down to everything coming up — birthdays, trips, launches, the big dinner — on one timeline, soonest first. Glance at it and you know how many days you've got.

The Goldfish timeline: Sam's birthday tomorrow, then a weekend away in 17 days and a trip to Tokyo in 32.

Everything coming up, in order.

Each event is a card with an emoji and a colour, counting down in whole days. The soonest one sits on top, and the line between cards tells you how long you've got before the next.

When the day comes it reads “Today”. Give an event a time and it counts the hours, then the minutes.

Birthdays in Goldfish, each showing the age being turned: Sam turns 21, Grandma turns 100.

Birthdays that know how old you're turning.

Make anything repeat every week, month or year. Mark a yearly event as a birthday and Goldfish shows the age being turned; an anniversary shows which one it is.

Already have birthdays in Contacts? Pick the ones you want and bring them in all at once.

A new event filled in from speech: Mum's birthday, Wednesday 3 March, turns 60, in 136 days.

Just say it.

Tap the microphone and say Mum's birthday 3 March, turning 60. Goldfish fills in the name, date, emoji and repeat for you to check before you save.

It all happens on your iPhone, and nothing you say is kept. You can also ask Siri to add an event in Goldfish.

The month calendar for October, with each event's emoji on its day and today's events listed below.

See the week, or the whole month.
