DailyCourse vs Sorrel

A calm daily companion for the things you've decided to teach yourself. Maybe it's a language you've been meaning to keep. A book you're working through. An instrument you picked up last fall. Code, design, theory, vocabulary. DailyCourse is a journal you keep about your own learning — quiet, honest, yours. This is not Duolingo. There are no leagues to climb, no avatars to dress, no streak that you pay to freeze. Closer to a paper journal that happens to live on your phone. Each course lives by your hand: • Set a course, pick the days, pick a time • Show up daily for a focus session • Log progress with a single tap — what you learned, how it felt • Mark missed honestly when you couldn't; rest days protect your streak What you'll find inside: • A Today screen that shows just today's sessions, nothing more • A focus timer with Dynamic Island support and Live Activities • A calendar with the year laid out so you can see your year in learning • Insights that surface your patterns without judging them • Home screen and lock screen widgets that respect the design • Notes alongside each session, searchable • Optional reminders for upcoming sessions What you won't find: • No leagues, no friend feeds, no social anything • No gamification, hearts, coins, streaks-as-currency • No "we miss you" notifications • No accounts, no sign-in • No paywall, no Plus tier — DailyCourse is free Privacy Everything stays on your device and syncs through your private iCloud. We don't have a server. We don't collect analytics or crash reports. Your notes are encrypted at rest. No third-party SDKs, no tracking, no ads. A journal you keep with yourself.

Sorrel is a language practice diary for people who study in the real world. You already practice outside of apps — podcasts, books, tutor lessons, conversations, writing, grammar, videos. Sorrel is where you record what you did, keep a useful journal, and see your progress in the language. No games, no streak pressure, no daily nagging. Just log your practice and watch yourself get closer to your goal with every session.
