What I Did is the opposite of a to-do list. Instead of tracking what you have to do, you log only what you actually accomplished each day. Every entry is a small win. [Why this is different] Traditional to-do apps track tasks you must do. When the day ends with half the list undone, you feel guilty and lose motivation. The list itself becomes a source of stress, not a tool. What I Did flips the script. You only log what you ACTUALLY DID. Every entry is a small win. Every screen is a record of accomplishment, not a punch list of unfinished work. Looking back at past days feels good, not stressful. There are no deadlines, no priorities, no "incomplete" status to nag you. The app cannot judge you. It only remembers what you got done. [Who this is for] - Anyone who feels burned out by traditional to-do apps - Students who want to track what they actually studied each day - Freelancers and remote workers who need a record of what they shipped, for billing or self-review - Parents managing the invisible work of running a household - Anyone in recovery, therapy, or rebuilding their routine — small wins matter - People who want to look back at the end of a week, month, or year and remember what they actually did with their time [How it works] - Pick a date on the calendar - Tap "+" to log what you did, in one line - Add an optional memo if you want more detail - Browse past days to see everything you have done - Get a daily reminder at a time you choose, so you remember to log [A daily ritual that takes 2 minutes] The app is built around a simple evening (or morning) habit. Right before bed, or right after coffee, open the app and log what you did. That's it. Two or three lines. After a week you have a complete picture of where your time went. After a month you have proof of how much you actually got done — even on days that felt unproductive. [What you can capture] - Work tasks shipped, problems solved, meetings held - Things studied, books read, exercises completed - Errands run, household tasks finished, meals cooked - Conversations had, emails sent, decisions made - Moments of rest, walks taken, time with family - Anything you want to remember a year from now [Key features] - Calendar view to navigate by date with at-a-glance counts per day - Quick add, edit, swipe to delete - Optional memo field for additional context - Korean and English language support, switch any time without restart - Daily reminder notifications at a time you choose - Sign in with Apple, Google, Kakao, Naver, or email - Account deletion in Settings, with all your records permanently removed [Privacy & ads] Activity records are stored on our backend, tied only to your account. Email and provider account IDs are stored for authentication. The app shows ads via Google AdMob, and the App Tracking Transparency prompt is requested for ad personalization only. We do not sell your personal data to third parties. Account deletion in Settings removes all of your records permanently — no questions asked. --- Stop tracking what you have to do. Start remembering what you got done.

Read full description

Spread Planner is a planner that shows your week and your handwritten notes as a two-page spread. - Opens like an A6 planner The inner display of iPhone Duo has almost the same proportions as A-series paper. Open it and your week sits on the left page and your notes on the right, just like an open A6 planner. Half-open it and the fold becomes the spine. Close it to see just today's page. - Your week on the left, handwriting on the right Type your plans for each day on the week page. Events from your iOS Calendar appear right on the lines (read only, never changed). Write by hand on the note page. - Choose your paper Lined and grid paper are free. Pro adds dot, blank, timeline and two-column paper, and you can pick a different paper for every week. - Monthly spread (Pro) See the whole month across two pages. Like a paper planner, the seven days span both pages, with monthly notes at the far right. Tap a day to jump to that week. - Works on regular iPhone and iPad On iPhone, flip between Today, Week, Notes and Month with the switcher at the top. Turn iPad sideways for the spread. - Night paper In Dark Mode the page turns to a softer "night paper". - Your writing stays on your device No account needed. Everything you write is stored only on your device and never sent anywhere. No ads. - Pricing Week pages, handwritten notes, lined and grid paper and calendar events are free. Spread Planner Pro (one-time purchase) unlocks the monthly spread and every paper type.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: What I Did at none against Spread Planner's 1. What I Did also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). Spread Planner's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
