Daily Planner is a simple daily planner for your to-dos and notes: one page per day, one clear focus, and a quick place for every to-do and thought. No account, no clutter. ADD IN A SECOND Type a to-do on today's page and press Return. The next line is ready, so a whole list takes seconds. Not sure where to start? Pick "Today's priority", "On my mind" or "For tomorrow". Close a half-written entry and it waits for you as a draft. ONE FOCUS A DAY Pin the single thing that matters today. A new focus only replaces that day's previous one, so the page never fills up with priorities. FOUR KINDS OF ENTRY To-dos, free notes, reflections and letters to your future self. Progress counts open to-dos only, so a note never turns into a chore. PLAN TODAY, WRAP UP TONIGHT Writing streak: see how many days in a row you have written. Close the day: in the evening, move open to-dos to tomorrow, so tomorrow's page is ready when you wake up. Weekly recap: what you finished, what is still open, and the moments worth remembering. Daily reminder: optional, at the hour you choose. A TIME WHEN YOU NEED ONE Give any to-do an optional time and get an alert when it is due. Bring unfinished to-dos from earlier days over to today. DAY, WEEK, MONTH, YEAR Move between four calendar views, open any day's page and search everything you have written. EXPLORE - SMALL TOOLS FOR REAL DAYS Move, split, let go: carry an unfinished task to another day, break it into steps, or set it down on purpose. Nothing is deleted. Match your energy: up to three suggestions based on how you feel and how much time you have. A page from the past: revisit what you wrote a month and a week ago, and note what has changed. Letters to yourself: leave a few lines that stay sealed until a future date. Your ideas, growing: follow the tasks and entries that grew out of one note. Weekly reflection: what you completed, what is waiting, and what you postponed again. YOUR NOTES STAY ON YOUR DEVICE Everything is saved on your device, with no account. Your notes are never uploaded. Export a free backup file whenever you like and restore it on a new phone. IN YOUR LANGUAGE English, Spanish, Portuguese, German, French and Turkish.

DayPlan keeps your day simple. Today, Tomorrow, Week, and Month views give every task a clear home — plus habits, countdowns, a baby log, and a home-screen widget, without complex project management. DAILY PLANNING Add tasks to Today, push to Tomorrow, or park them in Week or Month. Unchecked tasks carry forward each morning. Set daily defaults and recurring tasks that appear fresh every day or week. HABITS & STREAKS Mark a task as a daily habit and DayPlan tracks your streak, longest run, and completion rate automatically. COUNTDOWNS Count down to birthdays, trips, and deadlines — see exactly how many days are left. WEEKLY 7-DAY VIEW Monday through Sunday as day cards. Tap a day to add tasks to it — Wednesday's gym stays on Wednesday. BABY LOG Track your newborn's feeds, diapers, pumping, and growth in one optional tab — with a hands-free nursing timer and camera stool-color check. Off by default; turn it on in Settings. SHOPPING LIST A dedicated list separate from your tasks. Check items off and share in a tap. DIARY A Diary and Notes section for each day, auto-saving as you type. Scroll back 30 days or forward 6 months. VOICE INPUT Tap the mic on any task or diary entry and just speak — DayPlan transcribes instantly.
