The current app has been selected as an official boutique recommendation for the App Store 4 times: "Today Topics", "Less Is More", "Minority Select", "Life Solutions I don't have" "TIME CARD" can be used to manage every anniversary in your life that has special meaning to you. In fact, many people hope to have a gadget that can help them record important days in life. However, the operation of the traditional recording app is too complicated, and the interface is too simple. It is difficult to feel the feeling of `fast`, `formal`, `simple`, `comfortable`, `all in one go`. Most of the time, we always use it for a while, and we give up to continue to use it. The biggest difference between "TIME CARD" and the traditional anniversary app is its Interface and Gesture Operation. The exquisite UI gives each `Anniversary` a more formal sense; various gesture operations make the operability more convenient and comfortable. I believe that `The Beautiful Interface Design` and `The Soothing Interactive Animation` in the app will make you like it unconsciously. ------ In TIME Card, you can easily record and manage these contents: - How many days are there before an important exam? - How many days have you been working in the company? - How many days have you known your boyfriend/girlfriend? - How many days have the baby been born? - Records of important dates, etc., no longer sorry for being missed~ ------ What are the functions of `TIME CARD`? - Soothing interactive experience - Quick gesture operation - Various color card options - Exquisite card sharing - Intimate widget preview - Simultaneously supports iCloud manual synchronization and automatic synchronization, providing convenient backup and recovery services - Support card sorting - Support event repeat - Support notification reminder - Support warm notes - Support setting card closing date, and provide switch ------ Who should use the `TIME Time Card`? - Students Record the start date of one of your activities or important exams, you can more intuitively see how much time is left, and improve your sense of tension - White Collar Record the start date of an important meeting and prepare for it in advance - Literary Young People Record the date of an event, record the birthdays of parents, grandparents, boyfriends/girlfriends, no longer forget about life trivia - Young Parents Record how many days have passed since your baby was born, record your lover's birthday, record your wedding anniversary, TIME can perfectly record these anniversaries - You Are Losing Weight How long has it been since the day I swear to lose weight? Is it successful to lose weight? - You Are Determined To Make A Little Achievement See if you have reached your original goal from the day you launched your goal - Perhaps it's the "Anniversary" management tool that you have been looking for, which meets your aesthetic requirements. ------ We are happy to answer your questions or just listen to your views on the `TIME CARD`. Can contact the author through the following ways: - Email: jony.chunfang@gmail.com - Twitter: https://twitter.com/jony_chunfang - Weibo: https://weibo.com/u/3034766044 ------ One more thing, if you like `TIME CARD`, you are welcome to leave a 5 star rating in AppStore, thanks for your support and encouragement~
