A briefing app that gathers what your day needs onto one screen. Air quality, weather, and today's schedule, to-dos and memos — open it once in the morning and the day falls into place. Calm, low-saturation colors instead of harsh alert tones, easy on your eyes. ■ Today briefing • PM10 / PM2.5 grades with advice for the day outside • Current temperature, feels-like, humidity and wind • Today's timetable — hourly weather and your schedule on one vertical time axis, sunrise and sunset included • Today's schedule, to-dos and recent memos right below ■ Week briefing • The next 7 days, one card per day — low/high temperature, rain probability, and that day's plans • Add a schedule or to-do for that date straight from its card • See the same week as a timetable — a vertical time axis showing where you are still free ■ Schedule • A monthly calendar with soft color blocks • Month and week views — pick a date and the calendar narrows to that week • One-day events, multi-day events, and timed events • Repeating events — daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, even lunar-calendar yearly, with custom intervals and end dates • Long-press an event and drag it to another date • Show your device calendar events alongside — you choose which calendars • Save events you create into a device calendar too — per event, send it elsewhere or leave it out ■ To-dos • A light checklist centered on today • Unfinished to-dos carry over to today the next day • Push one to another date with the calendar icon ■ Memos • Plans without a date yet go on a sticky note first • Five paper colors, checklist memos, drag to reorder • Turn a memo into a schedule once its date is set • Recent memos preview on the Today tab too ■ Anniversaries • Register birthdays and anniversaries on the solar or the lunar calendar • Lunar dates are recalculated every year — no more looking up what today's date is • Anniversaries within the next two weeks show up early on the Today briefing, as "D-7 · August 11" • Age and "5th year" appear on the day itself, not before ■ Region • City presets and worldwide city search • Or use your current location — location permission is asked only for this • Dust grades follow the local standard — Korea MoE, US EPA, elsewhere the European EAQI ■ Home screen widgets • Today's Air — temperature, weather icon and dust grades (small · medium) • Today's Brief — weather plus today's schedule and to-dos; the large size adds this month's calendar (medium · large) • Weather & Calendar — the current weather beside this month's calendar, a dot on days with plans (medium) • Widgets refresh themselves periodically and follow your chosen city ■ Notifications • Morning briefing — the day's schedule, to-dos and anniversaries, once, at the hour you set • Anniversary reminders — 1, 3 or 7 days ahead • Event reminders — 10 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour or 1 day before, set per event • Air quality alert — one heads-up on days the air turns bad • All off by default, and nothing is sent on a day with nothing on it ■ Make it yours • Four color themes — Deep Navy · Sage · Dusty Rose · Warm Sand • Dark mode — every theme has a night side; follow the system or choose by hand • Drag to reorder the bottom tabs • Reorder or hide the Today screen blocks — memos, today's plan, anniversaries • 한국어 · English · 日本語 · 简体中文 · 繁體中文 ■ Light and undemanding • No sign-up — you only sign in to your own cloud if you turn sync on • Your schedule, to-dos and memos live on your device. Turn on sync with Glim Pro and they travel through your own iCloud or Google Drive — no server of ours in between • Weather and air quality come from Open-Meteo • There is one banner ad along the bottom.
