Mori makes time visible. A minimalist life calendar shows the weeks of your life — compact, calm, and distraction-free. Inspired by memento mori: when you see time’s finitude, you may make clearer choices. How Mori helps • Life calendar See your life as a quiet grid of weeks. Each dot represents one week. • Current week Focus on the present week, reflect on it, and add a short private note. • Weekly reflections Mark meaningful weeks, add a mood, and write down what mattered. • Month view Navigate your weeks more easily through a month-based view. Tap any week to reflect on it. • Life events Add meaningful moments with a title, date, color, category, symbol, and optional note. • Life phases Mark longer chapters of your life, such as school, relationships, work, places, or personal seasons. • Review Look back at what happened since your last birthday: events, reflections, and meaningful weeks. • What-if mode Explore temporary scenarios without changing your profile. • All Weeks A simple view where every week counts the same. • Good Weeks An optional quality-weighted view where later years can be subtly adjusted and marked. • Personalizable Set your date of birth and sex, with optional simple inputs such as smoking, exercise, alcohol, height, weight, sleep, stress, screen time, steps, diet, social contact, and chronic conditions. • Fine-tuning Choose when good years start to decline and the quality toward life’s end. • At a glance Optionally show remaining weeks at the top. • Widgets Small, medium, and accessory widgets show your remaining weeks, progress, and important markers such as events and life phases. • Display options Show or hide age markers, life events, and life phases. • Appearance Light, Dark, or System. • Private by default No account. Your data stays on your device unless you enable optional iCloud backup. Important Mori is a visualization and an approximation. It is not health or life advice and does not replace medical judgment.
