The Life Timeline
Read full descriptionHide full description
Your life has a finite number of weeks. This app shows you exactly how many. Please note: The base Life Timeline is free to use forever, including all cloud backup and syncing features. A premium annual subscription is required to unlock advanced features like custom themes, artwork exports, and multiple timeline archives. Open The Life Timeline and it snaps directly to This Week—your fixed position in an infinite scroll that stretches from the week you were born to the week of your 100th birthday. Scroll up, and the past fades into a gentle archival haze. Scroll down, and the future unfolds as a concrete, numbered runway: not an abstract "someday," but an exact count. A Different Kind of Calendar Sync your Apple calendar and every future event transforms into a distance: You are 14 weeks from your anniversary. You are 312 weeks from your planned retirement. Tag anything with # and the app calculates the exact weight of the gap. The infinite scroll of social media replaced with the finite scroll of your own existence. Your Data Is a File You Own Most journaling apps store your life in a database on their servers. When they close, change pricing, or get acquired—your memories go with them. The Life Timeline stores everything as a standard, human-readable Markdown file on your own iCloud, No proprietary format. No account required. If this app disappeared tomorrow, you'd still have every note, every tag, every memory in a file you can open on any device, in any text editor, for the rest of your life. Built for Three Kinds of People - The Data Sovereign: You self-host. You use iCloud for everything personal. You want a life-planning app that stores data in a format you actually control. - The Practical Stoic: You practice Memento Mori to sharpen your priorities. You need to see the geometry of your remaining weeks to make better decisions today. - The Legacy Builder: You think in decades. You want daily calendar entries to automatically become part of a generational archive you can hand to your children. Features - Infinite vertical scroll from birth to your 100th birthday snaps to This Week - Zoom levels: Day, Week, Month, Quarter, Year, Decade - Live calendar sync with Apple Calendar - @ events and # tags with automatic week-distance calculations - Notes stored as plain Markdown readable by any text editor - Free Cloud Sync: Seamlessly sync across iCloud - Memory Canvas (Pro): Export any week or event as a shareable artwork - Extra Timelines (Pro): Run separate named timelines (e.g., project, creative) - Birthday markers, decade boundaries, and age sublabels throughout - Search across all your notes and events instantly - Zero tracking scripts. Zero analytics. Zero data collection. Pro Annual Subscription to Unlock Annually ($3.99) A premium annual subscription unlocks full access to: - All 17 Pro themes: Cartographer, Deep Space, Neon Noir, Blueprint, and 13 more. - Memory Canvas: Shareable artwork exports. - Extra Timelines: Multiple named life archives.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: EveryConvert at none against The Life Timeline's 1. EveryConvert also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 10 days). The Life Timeline's advantage is iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
