Day 1.

A year is 365 days. That sounds like a lot until you realize how quickly they slip by. Day 1 was built for people who want to pay attention to their time, not just spend it. See Your Entire Year At the heart of Day 1 is a simple idea: what if you could look at your whole year at once? The 365-dot grid makes this possible. Each dot represents a single day. As you move through the year, you watch your grid fill in. It sounds simple because it is. And that simplicity is the point. Mark What Matters Track the moments that mean something to you. Maybe it's every day you went for a run. Every day you wrote. Every day you called your mom. Add custom events with your own emoji and names, and suddenly your year tells a story only you can read. Notice How Each Day Felt Some days deserve a note. Give any day a mood with a single tap, then look back and see the rhythm of your weeks and months. No journaling required. A gentle daily reminder can nudge you to check in, only if you want it. Three Ways to Look at Time Switch between yearly, monthly, and weekly views depending on what you need. The yearly view gives you perspective. The monthly view helps you plan. The weekly view keeps you present. A progress ring shows exactly where you stand in your year, no mental math required. Your Year, Your Style Choose from thoughtfully designed themes that make checking in feel like a small gift. Pick a dot shape that feels right. Day 1 was designed to be beautiful because beautiful things get used. Widgets That Work Bring your year to your home screen with widgets in three sizes. A lock screen widget keeps your progress visible every time you pick up your phone. Glance at your year without opening anything. Sync and Privacy iCloud keeps everything in sync across your devices. And because your days are personal, Day 1 collects no analytics and does no tracking. Your data stays yours. Day 1 Premium Unlock additional themes, dot shapes, and home screen widgets. Premium members also receive a digital membership card and family sharing support. Some people journal. Some people use habit trackers. Day 1 is different. It doesn't ask you to write paragraphs or check boxes. It just asks you to notice your days and mark the ones that count. Your year is already happening. Day 1 helps you see it.
