Task Chart is a planner app where your plan is written on one big sheet of paper. ■ One sheet Goals and tasks live together on a single sheet, nothing abbreviated. The phone screen is a window onto that paper. Pinch to zoom, pick a task up with your finger and rearrange it — you see where everything will settle before you let go. ■ Day by day Tap a cell and record the day in one stroke — a check, or a number. The row and the day light up in a quiet cross. Past days turn like a scroll under your finger. ■ Quiet by design No advertising. No tracking (only anonymous usage counts, which you can turn off in Settings). No badges, no streaks, no flames. Just paper and ink. ■ What you write is yours The notebook is stored on your device only, and you can export it to a file at any time. If you stop subscribing, everything you wrote stays readable. Nothing becomes unreadable. ■ About the subscription Writing — creating and editing tasks and records — requires the Task Chart subscription (US$0.99/month or US$11.99/year; prices vary by region). Reading and exporting are free without one. The first 14 days are free for new subscribers. Unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the free period ends, your Apple ID is charged for the period you chose, and it renews automatically until you cancel. You can cancel any time in iPhone Settings. If you purchased the earlier paid version, please contact support.

So that's what my day actually looks like. 24h Dial is the simplest way to see where your time goes. Open the app, tap what you're doing right now — the previous activity closes automatically, and your day fills in as a colorful 24-hour dial. ◆ ONE TAP IS ALL IT TAKES • Tap Work, Sleep, Break… to switch activities instantly • Long-press to stop logging — no start/stop timers to babysit • Forgot to log something? Tap a slice to backfill or fix past hours • Night owls can shift the start of their day anywhere from 0:00 to 6:00 ◆ YOUR 24 HOURS, AS A COLORFUL DIAL • Midnight at the top, clockwise around the clock — one glance shows how the day was spent • Unlogged time stays light gray, so the "missing hours" stand out immediately • Home Screen widgets keep the current activity and elapsed time always in view ◆ WEEKLY REPORTS FIND YOUR TIME BLACK HOLES • Total ranking by activity • Weekday stacked charts and an "average day" dial • Insights like "18 unlogged hours this week" or "Breaks up 2 hours vs last week" ◆ EVERYTHING IS FREE. NO SUBSCRIPTION. • Logging, your full history, unlimited activities, weekly and monthly reports, CSV export and widgets are all free — nothing is locked, nothing expires • A small banner ad at the bottom of the dial, history and report screens keeps the app running (never on input, edit or settings screens, and never while the keyboard is up) • Prefer it clean? A single one-time purchase removes the banner for good. It is not a subscription, and it unlocks nothing else ◆ PRIVACY FIRST • Everything stays on your device — no account required • What you log is never used for advertising • Nothing you log ever leaves your device The first step to changing how you spend your time is knowing how you spend it. Start coloring in your 24 hours today.

Verdict
