Track anything, privately. No account. No cloud. No nonsense. Countly Daily is a one-tap event logger for the small things you repeat every day — water, meds, workouts, coffee, anything worth counting. Most tracking apps want you to build habits. Countly Daily just counts. No streaks to break. No goals to fail. No sign-up required. Just a private log of what happened and when — stored entirely on your device, always. — WHAT YOU CAN TRACK — Anything you do more than once a day: • Water glasses, coffee cups, medication doses • Workout sets, running sessions, steps taken • Focus blocks, reading sessions, screen-free hours • Symptoms, mood checks, energy levels • Any custom event you repeat and want to remember — HOW IT WORKS — Create a custom event in seconds — give it a name, an emoji, and a color. Then tap + every time it happens. That's it. When you want to review: open the calendar, pick any date, and see exactly what happened and when. Every log entry includes a timestamp. Nothing is hidden behind a paywall or locked in a cloud you don't control. — ON YOUR HOME SCREEN — Add a Countly Daily widget to your iPhone home screen and log events without ever opening the app. One tap. Done. — BUILT FOR PRIVACY — • No account required — ever • No internet connection needed • All data stored locally on your device • Export your data anytime as a CSV file • Nothing sent to any server — WHAT'S INCLUDED — • Unlimited custom events with emoji and color • Daily count logging with full timestamp history • Calendar view to browse any past date • Consistency tracking across your events • Event distribution chart by week, month, or all time • iOS home screen widgets • List and grid view for your event dashboard • Quick-start templates to get going in seconds • Light and dark mode • CSV data export • No account. No subscription required to use the core app. Countly Daily is for people who want to know what they're actually doing — without being told how to feel about it.

About

OneThing

OneThing cuts through the ADHD fog and shows you one thing at a time. It's an ADHD focus & task planner. You have tasks in Google Tasks, events in Google Calendar, emails in Gmail, reminders in Apple Reminders, items in Todoist — and a brain that freezes when choosing where to start. OneThing reads all of it, scores by urgency, and hands you a single swipe card: the one thing to do right now. HOW IT WORKS Swipe right to commit and mark done. Swipe left to defer. Swipe up to delete. Swipe down to pin as your Do Now. Each swipe brings the next card — no lists, no overwhelm. WHAT YOU GET • Decision queue that merges calendar events, tasks, and emails into one prioritised stack • AI assistant you can voice-ramble to — it turns your thoughts into tasks and actions • Google Calendar, Google Tasks, and Gmail sync — see your whole day without switching apps • Apple Reminders sync • Todoist sync • Do Now mode: one thing, front and centre, for the next hour BUILT FOR ADHD No lists. No folders. No endless settings. Just one card, one choice, one tap. PRIVACY OneThing reads your calendar events, tasks, and email metadata (subject, sender, date). We never read email bodies without your explicit opt-in. Your data is never sold and never used for advertising.
