I made this app for myself because I struggle with self-management. Daily to-dos, routines, important plans, and habits. It helps you follow through on the things you want to do and keep building. I hope this app I made for myself can support someone else's everyday life. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
