Dusk asks you one question every day. You write a short answer — a sentence, a few words, whatever feels right. That's it. No blank pages. No prompts to write more. No streaks that make you feel guilty for missing a day. Just one question, one moment of reflection, saved on your device. Over weeks and months, your entries become a quiet record of who you were — what you noticed, what surprised you, what you were thinking about. Not a diary. Not a productivity tool. Just a small daily practice of paying attention. How Dusk works: • Open the app. Read today's question. • Write your answer. Save it. • Come back tomorrow for a new question. Your entries stay on your device. Dusk never sees what you write. You can export everything as a clean Markdown file anytime — your words, your data, your choice. No account required. No sign-up. Just open and start.
