Daily Planner

Read full description

Daily Planner — a transparent offline task planner and habit tracker. Built with a "privacy by design" approach: - Free - No subscriptions - No ads - No account registration - No trackers or analytics - Works completely offline - Data is stored locally on your iPhone TASKS YOU CAN CLOSE HONESTLY Daily Planner is more than just a to-do list. You close every event with an actual result: - Completed - Not completed - Canceled This gives you a real picture of your life (instead of an endless "to-do" list that you're ashamed to open). THE PLAN (HOW IT SHOULD BE) + THE LOG (HOW IT ACTUALLY WENT) Every task has two layers of meaning: - "Instruction / Plan" — your ideal process: steps, rules, program, checklist. - "Completion Log" — your factual report: what worked, what got in the way, numbers, feelings, and details. Perfect for sports, nutrition, sleep, routines, therapy, study, work, and any recurring processes. FLEXIBLE REPEATS WITHOUT THE CHAOS Create tasks exactly how you want: - One-time events (for a specific date) - Daily habits - Recurring patterns (not just "every day") Supported schedule modes: - Weekly (by days of the week) - 4×7 Cycle (28-day grid) — perfect for workouts and week-by-week plans - Monthly (by days of the month) + smart logic for shorter months - Quarterly - Yearly RESCHEDULING AND SCHEDULE "MIGRATION" WITHOUT LOSING HISTORY Life changes — and so does your plan. - Move a single event to another date - Change the future schedule of a series (migration) while keeping the past history exactly as it was TIME OF DAY AND CATEGORIES So your to-do list doesn't turn into a mess: - Morning / Afternoon / Evening - Color-coded categories (sports, work, health, home, etc.) HISTORY AND ANALYSIS Daily Planner shows not only "what is planned" but also "what actually happened": - History for each habit/task - Event feed - Grouping and filters (e.g., by category) EXPORT FOR ANALYSIS AND LLMs (ON YOUR COMMAND) If you want to dive deeper into your habits: - Export the history of closed events (for 30/90/365 days or all time) - Get the file and send it wherever you want via the system "Share" menu Important: Exports are created only upon your request. You decide where to send the file. PRIVACY AT THE CORE - No accounts, servers, or logins - All data stays on your device - The app doesn't "track" you and sells nothing
