Kurun turns your entire day into a single pie chart — so you can see exactly where your time goes, without scrolling through endless lists. Why a pie chart? Most calendar and to-do apps stack your schedule top to bottom. But a vertical list can't show you the full picture. Kurun fits all 24 hours into one circle. The moment you look at it, you just get it: - That "quick" social media check? It's a surprisingly big slice. - Gaps in your day show up as empty space — no hiding from lost time. - More time resting than working? The imbalance is obvious at a glance. Before you analyze the numbers, you feel the shape of your day. That's the power of the circle. Does this sound familiar? - You were busy all day, but nothing feels done - You can't quite remember how you spent the last 24 hours - You have no idea how much time you lose to scrolling or breaks - You want better balance between work, study, and sleep - You know something's off, but don't know where to start What you can do with Kurun - Visualize your full 24 hours in one pie chart - Color-code activities and tasks for instant clarity - Spot untracked gaps in your day at a glance - Create custom categories — study, work, sleep, anything - Review each day and catch time imbalances early - Organize your tasks with the built-in to-do list - Use the built-in stopwatch and timer to log time directly to your timeline Perfect for - Anyone building better time management habits - Students tracking study sessions and focus time - Professionals looking to improve work-life balance - Fans of time tracking, life logging, or habit journaling - Anyone who prefers visual records over written notes Log it simply. See it clearly. Feel how you spend your time — with Kurun. Some features (To-Do, Pomodoro Timer, and more) are available with a Pro plan (in-app purchase).

About

DayLog

"Where did my day go?" If you've ever wondered that, DayLog is for you—a simple time-logging app that records how you spend your day with a single tap. Sleep, work, meals, exercise, hobbies—just tap what you're doing now. The previous entry ends automatically and the next begins. No tedious input, no separate start/stop buttons. As your records build up, your day, week, and month come vividly into view. Timeline, donut chart, activity calendar—see your time in numbers and in color. And the more you use it, the more DayLog learns your habits. "Saturday morning—your usual grocery run?" It predicts what's next, so logging gets easier every day. And on the 1st of every month, your "16 Types" result arrives—morning or night, deep focus or quick switching. No questionnaire: your type is diagnosed from how you actually spent your time, delivered as a shareable card with its own character. Every Monday, a weekly report looks back on your week with numbers and gentle insights. ■ Made for you if you ・Lose track of where your day went ・Want to rethink your time and live a little better ・Couldn't stick with complex expense or journaling apps ・Want a light grasp on your sleep and exercise habits ■ Key features ・One-tap logging (switching is automatic) ・Timeline / donut chart / activity calendar ・Widget & Live Activity keep tracking effortless ・Stop reminders / 12 built-in categories ・Customizable categories: add your own—Childcare, Pets, Gaming, and more (up to 18).
