Just Did

Just Did is a reverse to-do list for people who finish a lot and still end the day wondering where the time went. Instead of writing tasks for later, you log what already happened: sent the email, took the walk, cleaned the kitchen, called your friend, made dinner, got through the hard thing. Tiny entries become a private daily journal of real progress and small wins. Use Just Did as a done list, daily journal, bullet journal companion, gratitude log, low-pressure diary, or simple habit tracker. Open it, tap +, write one line, and move on. What you can do: - Log completed moments in seconds - Add a Home Screen or Lock Screen widget, or a Control Center button, to log from anywhere - Log hands-free with Siri and Shortcuts: "Log a moment in Just Did" - Add photos when words are not enough - See your week at a glance: active days, themes you can tap into, and the words you keep coming back to - Browse days without empty entries getting in the way - Search your past moments - Generate private AI reflections from your entries - Protect the app with Face ID or Touch ID (widgets hide your moments while it is on) - Sync with iCloud and export a restorable backup Core text logging is free. Lifetime Supporter unlocks AI reflections, photo moments, search, iCloud Sync, and backup import/export. Just Did is deliberately not a planner. There are no future tasks, missed-day penalties, or guilt loops. It fits beside your notes, routines, self-care, and personal growth without turning reflection into homework. Privacy: Your journal stays on your device. No account is required. No ads. iCloud Sync uses your private iCloud account when enabled. AI reflections run on device on supported devices. https://sachetd.ca/apps/just-did/privacy Terms: https://sachetd.ca/apps/just-did/terms
