Tallyday is a simple, beautiful tracker for the things that matter. Count the days since a milestone, count down to a big date, or build a daily streak one check-in at a time. Starting a streak? Check in for today from the app or Home Screen widget. Tallyday shows your current run, longest run, and total credited days. If you forget to record a day, open the calendar and fill it in later. It counts down, too. Set a date for a trip, a launch, or a wedding and watch the days left tick away. When the day arrives, Tallyday celebrates with you, then keeps counting the days since. I built it because I wanted something focused: no accounts, no premium tier, no notifications begging for attention. Just a clean list of counters that sync via your own iCloud and stay out of your way. WHAT'S INSIDE • An adaptive iPhone Duo layout, with compact tiles when open with four or more visible counters, and familiar rows when closed • Unlimited counters with custom titles, icons, and colors • Daily streaks with current, longest, and total day counts • A calendar for recording today or filling in past streak days • Countdowns: track the days until a big date, with a day-of celebration • Interactive streak widgets for checking in without opening the app • Home Screen widgets that stay current, right through midnight, including a slim list widget that shows several counters at once • Categories to organize habits, home, family, health • Tap any counter to flip between total days and a years/months/days view • Share any milestone as a beautiful card to Messages, Instagram, and more • Send a milestone to a friend so they can add it to their own Tallyday • Automatic on-device backups you can restore anytime from Settings • Daily streak reminders that stop once you've checked in • Reliable milestone reminders on the cadence you choose: daily, weekly, monthly, annual, or every N days • Archive counters you're not tracking right now and bring them back anytime • Bottom search field with instant filtering • iCloud sync across your devices, no developer account needed • Import / export as JSON or CSV • Privacy-first: no analytics, no tracking, no third-party SDKs LIQUID GLASS DESIGN Built ground-up for iOS 26.
