Zonal vs Sill Notes

Zonal is a tiny, focused time-zone buddy. Add the cities and people you care about and see at a glance, what time it is for each of them right now. Need to find a slot that works across zones? Drag the dial at the bottom to travel up to 24 hours forward or back and watch every clock move together. When you find the moment, you've found your meeting time. • Every card is tinted by the local time of day there — night, dawn, day, dusk — so you can feel the time, not just read it. Each card shows its own date, too. • Name your entries. The name starts as the city but you can call it anything — "HQ", "Mom", "Tampa". Add the same zone more than once under different names. • Tap any card for its detail page: live time, UTC offset... Set it as your base and every offset is shown relative to it. • Smart search knows common cities that aren't official time-zone names — Beijing, San Francisco, Antwerp, Mumbai, and over a thousand more — plus UTC and GMT. • Share an entry as a link; the person you send it to gets a preview and confirms before it's added. No accounts, no subscriptions, no ads. Zonal works entirely on your device.

Sill is a small notepad for things you want to put down quickly and find again later. Notes are plain Markdown and stay plain. No smart quotes, no auto-capitalization, no hidden formatting: what you type is what is stored, and you can copy any note out as text at any time. Everything lives on your iPhone in a single local database. There is no account to create and no server in between, so Sill opens instantly and works the same with or without a network. If you also use the free Sill app for Mac, pair the two once by scanning a QR code. From then on they sync directly whenever they are near each other, over your local network or peer-to-peer Wi-Fi, with mutual TLS between the two devices. Nothing passes through the internet. The Mac app is optional: Sill on iPhone is a complete notepad on its own. A formatting bar above the keyboard adds headings, bold, italic, code, lists and checklists, all as plain Markdown. Return continues bullets, numbers and checkboxes. Copy as Markdown pastes as real lists and emphasis into Slack, Mail, Notes and Docs, and as the exact text everywhere else. Quiet: no analytics, no ads, no notifications, no third-party SDKs. Sill collects no data at all. Sill is free and open source under the MIT license.
