Cheer Me Up
Read full descriptionHide full description
Cheer Me Up is a calendar that gives you back your own words, one day at a time. You collect the lines that actually help — the ones you would want to hear on a hard morning — and sort them into folders like work, rest, or courage. Pick which folder is active, and each day the calendar hands you one quote from it. The day's quote is fixed. Once a date has been given a quote it keeps it, so this morning's line is still there tonight, and yesterday still says what it said. Adding or editing quotes never reshuffles the days you have already seen. You will not get the same words two days running. Tap any date to see the quote it was given, or the one waiting for it. YOUR WORDS, AND NOTHING ELSE • Nothing comes bundled — every quote is one you chose to keep • Chinese and English can sit side by side in the same folder • Works completely offline • No account, no sign-in, no sync, no ads, no tracking, no analytics • Everything stays on your iPhone MADE FOR IPHONE • Light and dark appearance • Larger text sizes supported • Interface in English and 简体中文 Cheer Me Up starts empty on purpose. It is not a book of famous quotations — it is a place for the handful of sentences that happen to work on you.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Cheer Me Up at none against Big Clock's 1. Cheer Me Up also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 4 weeks). Big Clock's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
