Gym every 3 days. Laundry every 7. Call mom every 5. Life runs in cycles, not calendars. N-day tracks the tasks that repeat on your schedule, shows you what's due, and stays out of your way. No streaks to keep alive. No guilt when you skip a day. Just a calm list of what matters next. No account, no ads, and your tasks stay with you. BUILT FOR HOW YOU ACTUALLY LIVE You've tried apps with streaks. You've tried calendars. You've watched 47 overdue tasks pile up and felt like the problem was you. It wasn't. The system was. Complete a task and its clock resets. Fell behind? Tap "Catch up to today" and the count starts fresh from today, with no backlog. Changed your mind? Undo it. Bad week? Tap "Illness" and your schedule shifts forward. Going away? Tap "Vacation" and your tasks wait for you. HOW IT WORKS • Any interval: every 2 days, every 3 weeks, every 2 months • Completing a task resets its cycle • Buffers move the schedule when life gets in the way • Clear status at a glance: overdue, due today, coming up • One calm daily summary instead of a stream of pings NO ACCOUNT. NO ADS. NO TRACKING. • No sign-up, no email, nothing to log in to • No tracking across other apps or websites, no advertising ID • Your tasks live on your device. There is no N-day server, so we never see them. • With iCloud sync they go to your private iCloud, encrypted by Apple in transit and at rest. • Works fully offline from the first launch • Export or import your data any time • Anonymous usage stats and crash reports never include your tasks and are processed on servers in the EU. Turn off "Share Analytics" in Settings and both stop. WORKS WITH YOUR APPLE DEVICES • Siri: "Complete my tasks in N-day" • Widgets on the Home Screen and Lock Screen • Apple Reminders sync • iCloud sync across iPhone, iPad and Mac • Spotlight search for any task ONE PRICE, YOURS FOREVER N-day Pro unlocks Siri, iCloud sync and Reminders with a single purchase. No subscription. Made by an indie developer who uses it every day.
