VisualDay Daily Planner
Read full descriptionHide full description
Make your day easier to follow with visual task cards, reusable routines and a focus timer. VisualDay is a personal daily planner for study, work and everyday routines. Give each task a title, icon, color and estimated duration, then organize it into morning, afternoon, evening or anytime. See what is next and track completed, skipped and remaining tasks throughout the day. PLAN WITH CARDS Create and edit task cards. Break a busy day into manageable steps, from preparing breakfast to a study session or a work task. REUSE YOUR ROUTINES Start with Morning routine, Evening routine or Study session templates. Create up to three custom templates on the free plan and reuse them when planning another day. Pro unlocks unlimited custom templates and additional ready-made routines. FOCUS ON ONE TASK Start a focus timer, pause and resume it, or add five more minutes. Return to an active session after closing its screen. When time runs out, choose whether to complete the task or keep going. On supported devices, Live Activities keep the session visible outside the app. KEEP YOUR PLAN VISIBLE Add Home Screen widgets for a quick view of your plan. Enable optional local reminders in Settings; daily planning remains available if notifications are turned off. Widget and Live Activity availability and updates depend on iOS and device support. KEEP A PERSONAL RECORD Planning data is stored on your device, and no VisualDay account is required. Export a JSON copy of your data. Pro adds PDF reports and manual file-based backup and restore through Files/iCloud Drive; this is not automatic synchronization between devices. OPTIONAL VISUALDAY PRO The free plan includes daily cards, focus, reminders, selected templates and widgets, and JSON export. Pro adds premium templates, unlimited custom templates, additional appearance options, PDF export, backup/restore and selected additional widgets. Choose a monthly or yearly auto-renewing subscription, or a one-time lifetime purchase. Prices and billing periods appear before purchase. Apple handles payment; subscriptions can be managed or canceled in your App Store account settings. Restore Purchases is available in the app. The lifetime purchase does not renew.

Verdict
Visual Time and VisualDay Daily Planner are too close to call on the numbers: across 5 compared parameters — price, ads, in-app purchases and device support among them — neither pulls far enough ahead to decide it. What separates them is feature set and interface, not measurable difference.
