Some days don't need a bigger to-do list. They need one place to see all of it — events, tasks, meals, and workouts — without hunting through five apps to find what's actually happening today. Day.ly gathers your whole day into a single, calm view. It's not a calendar replacement. It's a Today screen that shows you everything you're doing, without forcing every task into a time slot it doesn't need. EVERYTHING TODAY, ONE SCROLL - Calendar events pulled straight from your existing calendar - Tasks you can check off right from the Today screen - Meals you've planned for the day, tapped open to the recipe if you saved one - Workouts you've scheduled, on your terms PLAN AHEAD, RELAX TODAY Add tasks, meals, and workouts days, weeks, or months in advance, and let Day.ly hold onto them until the day actually arrives. Bigger, undated ideas live in Projects, so they don't clutter up your Today screen before they're ready. MEALS, WITHOUT THE NIGHTLY SCRAMBLE Plan a week of dinners in advance, glance back at what you made recently to keep some variety, or change the date on a meal you already planned to reuse it. Save a recipe link and Day.ly remembers it for you. WORKOUTS, YOUR WAY Schedule what you're doing and when, without being boxed into someone else's weekly program. Day.ly just needs to know what you're planning. The rest is up to you. CALM BY DESIGN A minimal, uncluttered interface built to lower decision fatigue, not add to it. Day.ly is deliberately wide, not deep; a look at your whole day, not a heavy system for any one part of it. RIGHT AT HOME ON ANY SCREEN Built to fit an iPhone SE without feeling cramped, and just as sharp stretched across a full iPad and looks great in both light and dark mode. A SMALL WAY TO DO GOOD 10% of every Day.ly subscription goes to A21, an organization working to end human trafficking. Try it free for 3 days, then continue with a subscription that gives back. Day.ly Planner is available for a Basic monthly ($.99) or yearly ($12.99) subscription that supports continued improvements and new features. Both offer a free trial to give you time to get to know Day.ly and decide if it works for you.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Day.ly Planner at 5.0 against ADHDAlly's 4.0. Day.ly Planner also leads on update cadence (every 4 weeks vs every 4 months). ADHDAlly's advantage is monetization model (freemium vs subscription) and ratings volume (6 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. ADHDAlly sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $9.99 per month and Day.ly Planner sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Day.ly Planner holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ADHDAlly has 6 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
