About

Dawny

Features
Read full description

Dawny is a planner built around how a day actually flows — hour by hour, on one scrollable canvas. Instead of a flat to-do list, Dawny gives you a visual day: • Time blocks you can see, stretch, and move • Tasks that float above the canvas when they don't need a time • A clean carry-forward for anything you didn't get to yesterday Designed for people who plan deliberately and want a tool that matches how they think about their day. WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT — Duration is visual. An hour-long block looks like an hour. A 15-minute block looks like 15 minutes. — Auto-scrolls to "now" every time you open it. — Swipe horizontally to change days. No fiddly arrows. — One canvas for planning and logging. No switching modes. — Works offline. Your day is always there, even with no signal. CORE FEATURES • Today — a live canvas of your current day, with a now-line that tracks the hour • Plan — lay out tomorrow or next week in the same visual grid • Insights — see where your time actually went, grouped by category • Goals — long-term objectives with progress, target dates, and categories • Quick add — capture an activity or task without breaking flow • Categories — colour-coded, so patterns jump out at a glance • Recurring activities — once, daily, weekly, or custom DESIGNED WITH CARE Warm cream background, forest green accents. Every shadow, spacing value, and animation is part of a defined design system. Quiet by default, expressive when it matters. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT Your data lives on your device. No ads. No tracking. No feed. For people who want their planner to feel like a well-kept notebook — not a notification factory.
