Solarday vs Hopper

Solarday helps you find a little more meaning and delight in ordinary days. It's for people who want to feel calmer while still making progress in life. If your to-do list has become some mindless alternate universe not in touch with how you actually live your days, Solarday might... might just be that space you're yearning for. I built Solarday for myself, so, of course, I use it every day and love it. Naturally, I'm biased. But you should see what the users and the tiny amount of press it's gotten so far say: "Beautiful, calming design." — Dense Discovery newsletter, Issue #378 (36k+ subscribers) "Plan your days with an app so beautiful you can show it off to others." — Mac O'Clock "Stable, serene option for tracking tasks" "Pretty, simple and calming" "This app helped me think in buckets that brought more alignment than a to-do list ever could. Absolutely genius." "It's beautiful and well-thought out and I would pay twice what they aren't asking for. 5 stars." "Been looking for an app like this for a very long time" Solarday brings daily productivity, intention setting, weather forecasts, aspirations for the future, and daily journaling into one place, while still trying to do very little. If you've read till here, that's all you need to know. But, for folks who are very particular about the details, here's mostly everything that Solarday does: – Do & focus: Add things to Do. Divide the space up with a Divider (or two). Set focus timers, and check in on progress from the Dynamic Island and Live Activities on the Lock Screen. – Day's Intention: Set an Intention to start each day. A positive affirmation, or any brief sentiment that guides the day ahead for you. Write your own, pick one from the library, or let Apple Intelligence generate one privately on-device. – Skies, by the hour: Weather forecasts for the rest of us. Drag to see 24 hours ahead. Know the moon, sun, and rain. Tonight's illumination, the feel of the air, whether you'll need sunscreen or an umbrella. – Future: Everything that isn't for today goes in Future. Ideas, little notes to self, things on the horizon. Move them into Do if and when the time is right, or just let them brew. – Reflect: To close the day. What went well? What are you grateful for? What did you observe today? Make it deep, or keep it brief. Private and end-to-end encrypted, so only you can ever see your Reflections. – Themes: Basic and Sunrise-Sunset are included. Four more — London Fog, Forest, Firehorse, and Wild Blueberry — are available to buy, for different moods or seasons. Each theme has light & dark variants that adapt based on your iPhone's Appearance. – Widgets: Glance at them from the Home Screen throughout the day. Adding more widgets steadily. And: – Privacy: Everything you write is end-to-end encrypted (AES-256). Only you can ever read it. – Seamless iCloud sync – Works offline: Full functionality without internet (say, on a flight). Syncs quietly when you're back. Simple, noise-free interface. No ads. Locally made by a small business of one in Perth County, Canada.
