## What is Day Recap?

See your life one day at a time.

Day Recap is a private daily journal built around one simple question: how was today? Rate it from 1 to 10, add a few details if you like, and write down what happened. Over time, your calendar becomes a colourful record of how your life actually felt.

RATE IT
Every day gets a rating on a red-to-green scale. It takes a few seconds, and it's the only thing you have to do. Add as much or as little as you want on top:
• Mood, energy, productivity and diet, each from 1 to 10
• Hours of sleep
• Whether you went to the gym

REMEMBER IT
• Write a diary entry about what happened
• Note who you spent the day with
• Star the days that matter and say why: a new job, a move, a wedding, a first marathon

SEE THE PATTERNS
• Week, month and year calendars, every day tinted by its rating
• A year view that shows your whole year at a glance, with your special days starred
• Charts of your daily ratings and monthly averages
• Insights that compare your days: how your rating tends to differ on days with more sleep, gym sessions, good moods or particular friends
• A side-by-side look at your good days and the rest

Insights describe what tends to go together in your own journal. They're patterns, not medical advice or proof of cause, and every comparison shows how many days it's based on.

APPLE HEALTH, IF YOU WANT IT
Connect Apple Health to fill in sleep and workouts automatically. Day Recap only reads sleep and workout data, never writes to Health, and never overwrites what you've entered yourself. Prefer not to connect? Everything works without it.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Your journal stays on your iPhone. No account, no ads, no tracking, no analytics. Nothing you write leaves your device.

A GENTLE REMINDER
Choose an evening reminder to take a minute to recap your day, or leave it off.

Day Recap is not a productivity coach and won't nag you with streaks. It's a quiet, personal record of your days, and a way to notice what your best ones have in common.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.4 — 2026-10-28

Day Recap got better.

• Talk instead of typing: tap the mic in your journal and just talk. Your words are written down for you, on your iPhone, and the recording is kept.
• Say why, if you want: after picking a mood, add a line about why. Insights now show the days your mood and your day didn't match, with your reasons.
• On this day: a year from now, today comes back, with your rating, photo, words and voice.
• Letters to future you: write, record your voice or a short video, and choose when it opens. It stays sealed until then.
• Fills itself in: sleep, workouts and your State of Mind come from Apple Health. You can always change them.
• Track your screen time by hand.
• Zoom when taking photos: pinch, or switch between 0.5×, 1× and your telephoto lens.

Everything still stays on your iPhone. No account, no ads.

### 1.3 — 2026-10-27

• Meet Recap: a friendly little mascot on your Today screen that cheers your good days and keeps you company on the hard ones.
• Your week, month and year in review: swipe through your best days, photos, people and numbers, then share or save each page.
• How your day unfolded: mark a day that started rough and ended well, or fill in morning, afternoon and evening.
• Insights at a glance: the comparisons that matter most in one card, with everything else a tap away.
• A fresh welcome tour, and tidier lists that stay easy to read however much you track.

### 1.2 — 2026-10-24

• Steps from Apple Health: connect once and Day Recap adds each day's step count automatically, then shows how your more active days compare. It all stays on your iPhone.
• Measure what you track: log coffee in cups, energy drinks in cans, water in litres, caffeine in milligram ranges, meditation in minutes and more, and see how your days compare.
• A tidier Today card: your details now wrap neatly, however many you track.

### 1.1 — 2026-10-21

• A clearer way to log your day: pick your mood from five faces, slide your energy from drained to energized, and note your progress and how you ate in one tap. Each day rating now comes with a short description so a 7 means the same thing every time.
• Choose what you track: start with the three details that matter to you and add the others whenever you like.
• Photos of your day: take several photos right in the app, straight from Today, and get an optional surprise photo moment each day. Flip the month calendar into a photo view.
• Photo widget: see today's photos on your Home Screen in small, medium or large, or tap to capture one.
• Track what matters to you: add your own factors with a new icon picker and colours, and compare your days with and without them.
• Smarter, more colourful insights: see how your days with and without each factor compare, spot next-day patterns, and notice when your last two weeks have shifted.
• More widgets: rate today with one tap, see your year at a glance, or keep today's rating on your Lock Screen.
