LYS is a free daily planner for you and your friends. Plan your day, post it as your story, and see your friends' days. Everything you write is end-to-end encrypted, so it stays yours alone. PLAN YOUR DAY Your to-dos and your events, together in one day and numbered in the order you'll do them. Drag them where you want them, and tap a number to complete it. Set a reminder on any to-do, and make it repeat on the days you choose. Your events sync automatically with Apple Calendar, Google Calendar, and Outlook. INVITE YOUR FRIENDS Send an invite link, or show your code to someone beside you. Once they accept, you're friends, and their stories sit at the top of your day. POST YOUR DAY TO UNLOCK THEIRS Post today as your story, and tap any row to hide it first. Once yours is up, your friends' stories open. Stories end at midnight. SEE YOUR FRIENDS' DAY Tap a friend's picture, and their day opens on the paper they chose. You'll know what they're up to without texting to ask. WIDGETS Keep your friends' stories a tap away with the Friends widget, or keep one friend's day on your Home Screen with Friend's Day, with the rows they hid still hidden. Your own day goes on your Home Screen and Lock Screen too, and on your Apple Watch. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Everything you write is end-to-end encrypted with a key only you hold. Our servers store your words as ciphertext we can't read, and only your friends can open your story. Your planner works offline, and you can export everything as Markdown or PDF anytime. UNLOCK MORE WITH LYS+ Try habits, goals, countdowns, birthdays, notes, and the journal for free. LYS+ makes them all unlimited. HABITS Choose the days for each habit and check it off as you go, and your streak grows with every one. Quitting something works the same way: check it off each day you go without. GOALS A goal is a number with a day: dollars saved, books read, a balance paid down. Tell LYS where you are, where you want to get to, and by when, add a step each time you move, and watch the bar fill. COUNTDOWNS The days you're waiting for, on a timeline from today: a trip, a school play, an anniversary. A date can come back every year. BIRTHDAYS Bring in birthdays from your contacts and see how old everyone is turning, all on a timeline of their own. NOTES Every list and idea in one place, sorted from A to Z, in folders inside folders. Checklists, a grocery list that remembers your usuals, and Face ID for the private ones. JOURNAL Before you go to bed, record your day by answering five questions. Then rewind to any day to see what was on your mind. PAPER COLORS Choose from 54 Paper Colors, and the whole app changes to match, even its icon and your story as your friends see it. A NOTE FROM JOHN hi :) my name is John, and i'm the founder of LYS. i created this app because i wanted to love my life. i wanted to be excited about life! excited to wake up each day, and excited for the future. everyone has their own future that, if they can create, they'll love their life. my goal is to make it easier for everyone to create that future. LYS, which stands for Love Yourself, is the first app i've built. i hope you love it, and i hope you love yourself.
