About

DAYBREAK CITY

Read full description

Feel like your phone took up the whole day again? DAYBREAK CITY helps you put it down, start a small real-world action, and grow a town from the effort you record. Put one thing away. Read a little. Choose something manageable and put your phone down. When you return and record your effort, you earn resources for roads and homes. You do not have to finish the whole task. You can begin with the suggested action: put one nearby thing away. Change it to your own task whenever you like, or save something for later in your to-do list. Build a town with homes and shops, then walk along the roads you made. Your town stays safe when you take a day off. If you want help taking a break from other apps, you can set daily limits or scheduled breaks. A short pause before opening an app is also available. These features are optional. No account or ads. Game data stays on your device, and you can create a backup. App limits require Screen Time permission. Opening pauses require initial setup in iPhone Shortcuts. Other apps' names and exact usage times are not sent to the developer. Town Conversations offers eight short stories with Nagi and Toma. Explore everyday approaches to thoughts and feelings, preparing what you need, and connecting actions. You can simply read and close. Takeaways, sources, and optional practical examples are also available.
