About

Asterism

This is one week. Asterism draws your life as dots β€” one for every week, 52 to a row, one row for every year of a 90-year horizon. The weeks you have lived are filled with light. The current week breathes. The rest is open sky. Enter your birthdate. That is the only thing Asterism ever asks for. Then mark the moments that mattered. The first date. The big move. The week your child arrived. The week you said goodbye. Eight colors for eight kinds of moments, and the grid becomes a constellation no atlas contains. An asterism is a constellation people named themselves, because it mattered to them. This one is yours. WHAT YOU GET β€” Your whole life on one screen. No scrolling. It already fits. β€” Pinch from the full sky down to a single week. β€” A loupe that finds any week β€” and the moments it holds β€” under your thumb. β€” A quiet list of everything you have marked, year by year. β€” Poster and wallpaper export. Anonymous dots by default; your colors if you choose. β€” One optional Monday note: "Week 1,635 begins. 3,045 remain." β€” Full VoiceOver, Dynamic Type, and Reduce Motion support. β€” Dark night-sky by default. A paper-and-ink light mode when you want it. WHAT YOU WON'T FIND No streaks. No badges. No quotes of the day. No countdowns. No predictions about how long you have. A blank week is still a lived week, and the app stays silent between them. PRIVATE, PROVABLY Everything stays on this device. There is no account. There is no server. The app has no network access at all β€” the promise is built into the binary, not the privacy policy. Your life exports as a plain, readable file whenever you want it. FREE Every feature included. No ads, no subscriptions, no in-app purchases. Nothing to unlock. Ninety years is an estimate, not a promise. The dots just make it visible. What you do with the empty ones is the point.
