TrueDay helps you understand how your life is actually going, not how you think it's going. Each day, you check in with the areas that matter most to you. Rate how things feel. Add a note if something stands out. That's it. Under a minute. But over time, something shifts. Patterns emerge that you couldn't see in the moment. The days that drain you start to have something in common. The ones that light you up do too. TrueDay finds those threads and shows them to you. AT THE CENTER: LUMEN Lumen is your companion through this process — a living presence that evolves as you do. It's not a chatbot. It's not an assistant. It's a glowing orb that breathes, pulses, and grows based on your consistency. Show up for a week, and it starts to glow. A month, and it develops new visual layers. Miss a few days, and it notices. Lumen's whispers are contextual. It knows your streak, your patterns, even the time of day. It won't lecture you. It just reflects what it sees. WHAT YOU TRACK IS UP TO YOU Choose from categories like Exercise, Sleep, Social, Creativity, Mindfulness, Nutrition, Learning, and more. Create your own if life doesn't fit the defaults. Rate each area 1–10. Add optional notes for context. INSIGHTS THAT ACTUALLY MEAN SOMETHING TrueDay doesn't just chart your numbers. It finds correlations between areas you wouldn't think to connect. It identifies your strongest and most volatile categories. It notices trends before you do. Premium unlocks AI-powered narrative summaries that weave your data into a story — what shifted this week, what's holding steady, and what deserves your attention. HEALTH DATA, CONNECTED With your permission, TrueDay reads HealthKit data — steps, sleep, exercise minutes, and mindful minutes — and shows how your body's patterns relate to how you actually feel. All health data stays on your device unless you choose to generate a premium summary. DESIGNED TO FEEL DIFFERENT Glassmorphic cards. Mesh gradient backgrounds that shift with your data. Spring animations that feel alive. No harsh edges, no clinical dashboards. TrueDay looks like something you want to open. WHAT'S FREE • Daily check-ins across 3 categories • 14 days of history and charts • Lumen — fully evolving, no restrictions • Contextual whispers and milestone recognition WHAT'S PREMIUM ($14.99 — one time, forever access) • Unlimited categories • Full history and trend charts • AI-powered weekly narrative insights • Health data correlations • CSV export • No subscriptions. No renewals. No ads. Ever. YOUR DATA IS YOURS Everything is stored locally on your device using Apple's SwiftData framework. Optional iCloud sync keeps your devices in step. Premium AI summaries are processed securely — your reflection data is never stored on our servers after the response is returned. TrueDay is a solo-developer project built entirely with native Apple frameworks. No third-party UI libraries. No analytics SDKs. No trackers. Just you, your data, and a companion that grows with you.
