## What is Vigil?

Vigil is a simple diary for the things you want to do every day: habits, routines, or a spiritual practice. Each day is one screen: tap what you did, add a count, write a note. The calendar shows your months at a glance.

Track what matters to you
• Add your own items: a check, a count with its own unit, or a note.
• Rename, recolour, reorder or archive anything.
• Starts with a few ready-made items, like prayer, Bible reading and confession, that you can keep or archive.

Stay with it
• A home-screen widget ticks items without opening the app.
• Reminders at the times you choose. If you have already ticked an item, Vigil stays quiet.

Keep it yours
• Everything syncs privately through your iCloud account. There is no sign-up and nothing leaves your Apple ID.
• Works on iPhone and iPad.
• A PDF of any month for your own records.
