Stampday is a life journal you keep with rubber stamps. Had a boba? Stamp it. Doomscrolled all evening? Stamp that too. Met a cat on the way home? There's a stamp for that. Each day is one page of paper — press your little stamps onto it, and watch ordinary days become something worth keeping. NOT A HABIT APP No streaks, no goals, no guilt. A day of nothing stays a blank page — and that's fine. Stampday only asks one thing: when something small happens, press it down. WHY IT FEELS REAL Every stamp is hand-drawn in a Japanese rubber-stamp style, and every press comes out slightly different — the ink breathes, edges wobble, just like a real stamp on real paper. Days end with a gentle one-line verdict written for you (tap it to write your own). ONE BOOK A MONTH Every month gets its own little notebook, standing in your book cabinet — the month on its cover, your most-used stamps stuck on the front. Past years are packed into boxes behind the cabinet doors. Open any book to add a stamp you forgot or edit that day's line — the books are always yours to touch. SEND A DAY TO A FRIEND Share one day as a link. Friends can quietly leave a wax seal on it — no login, no account, completely anonymous. The six wax seals in your drawer can only ever come from other people. USE STAMPS YOU CARVED Connect to Stamp Carver from My Carved Stamps. With your authorization, browse your cabinet and import selected or all stamps. Keep their original faces, materials and inks, with matching stamp bodies. Imported stamps work offline; connecting and importing require an internet connection and sign-in to both apps. ALL INKS ARE FREE Choose any ink and enjoy the same dipping and fading feel. Optional stamp boxes and the pass remain separate purchases. Existing purchases and Restore Purchases are retained.
