Washi Techō vs Today

Washi Techō is a simple journaling app you can keep up with—even on your busiest days. ◆ Start with just one line No lengthy entries needed. A quick note, a single photo, or just an emoji when you're tired. ◆ Easy to reflect View your days, weeks, and months at a glance. See how far you've come. ◆ English & Japanese Use the app in your preferred language.

Your whole day on one calm screen: date, steps, a daily quote, sunrise, sunset, moon phase and season progress. No ads. No accounts. No subscription. Works offline. Every other app on your phone is competing for your attention. Today isn't. It shows you what matters about this day, then gets out of the way. ◆ ONE SCREEN, YOUR WHOLE DAY The date, weekday, time to the second, your step count, day of the year, week of the year, and the temperature outside. Open it, glance, close it. That's the app. ◆ A QUOTE THAT ACTUALLY LANDS 127 hand-picked quotes — not scraped, not AI-generated. Pick one and keep it, or turn on Random Daily and let the day choose. Your quote follows you to the home screen and the lock screen. ◆ WHAT MAKES TODAY DIFFERENT Sunrise and sunset. Moon phase. How long the daylight lasts. A "Did You Know?" fact worth repeating. Any celebration or holiday landing today. ◆ WATCH THE SEASON TURN A single progress bar for the season you're in, and a countdown to the next one. Summer 74% — 24 days to Autumn. Small thing. Changes how the year feels. ◆ WIDGETS, INCLUDING ONES YOU DESIGN Date & Steps. Date & Season. Daily Quote. Or open the Widget Gallery and build your own. Small, medium, inline, rectangular and circular — home screen and lock screen. ◆ MADE TO LOOK LIKE YOU Six themes: Paper, Midnight, Blush, Sage, Slate, Ocean. Five serif faces: Playfair, Cormorant, Lora, DM Serif, Spectral. Thirty combinations, all of them editorial. ◆ NOTHING LEAVES YOUR PHONE No account. No sign-up. No analytics. No ads. No network calls. Today works in airplane mode because it never needed the internet. ◆ $2.99, ONCE One purchase. Every feature, every theme, every widget, every future update. No premium tier, no renewal, nothing to cancel. Add the widget. Glance once a morning. That's the whole idea.
