Daymint is one page a day. That’s the whole app. Open it and it’s today, with a fresh page waiting. Write a line, a list or a whole page. Nobody’s keeping score. HOW IT WORKS At midnight, your page gets minted. It turns into a coin, and Dot and Dash, two magpies who love shiny things, tuck it away in their nest. Then one day, when you least expect it, they bring it back. It might be a page from last week, from last spring, or from a Tuesday you’d forgotten all about. Old pages return as finds, so your days come back to you a little at a time. A LINE IS PLENTY Some days get a whole page. Some get one line: what you had for lunch, what the sky did, something a friend said that made you laugh. Either is plenty. Miss a day, a week or a month, and there’s nothing to catch up on. It’s always just today. UP AT MIDNIGHT? So are Dot and Dash. Keep writing past midnight and they put on a little show: nightcaps, a midnight snack, a shooting star, a swing on the moon. Every so often the mirror ball comes out, and New Year’s Eve and Halloween get something special of their own. A NICE PLACE TO WRITE Soft paper, warm type and two magpies who are always glad to see you. No feeds, no followers, no ads. Nothing on the screen competes with your page. New iPhone? Sign in, and Dot and Dash still have every page. FREE TO WRITE, ALWAYS Writing in Daymint is free, with no limits. Daymint is made by a tiny team, and if it makes your days a little brighter, you can support the makers, monthly or yearly. Supporters get: • Paper styles: lined, dotted and aged • More app icons: Paper, Bubblegum, and Dot and Dash • The find mix, to lean toward recent days or older ones • The full two-for-joy celebration from Dot and Dash Write today’s page. Dot and Dash will take it from there. Terms of use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
