■ Five notes. Five widgets. No list to scroll. This is not a notes app with a widget bolted on. It is five fixed slots, and each slot is its own Home Screen widget. Slot 3 is always slot 3's widget — place it once and it stays that note forever. Tap the widget and you land in that note with the keyboard already up and the caret at the end. No list, no search, no "which one was that". ------------------------------- ● The one thing it does ------------------------------- • Five numbered tiles, each in its own shade of a single colour, so you learn them by position and tone instead of reading them. • Every tile is a widget. Put slot 1 on your Home Screen, slot 4 on your Lock Screen, or all five. • Tapping a widget opens that note directly. You are never shown a list on the way. • Nothing to configure. The widget you add IS that slot — you pick the number in the gallery and it is bound there for good. There is no setup sheet to get wrong. ------------------------------- ● Nothing to save, nothing to lose ------------------------------- 1) There is no Save button Every keystroke is written to your device as you type. Close the app mid-word and the word is still there. 2) The widget keeps up The tile updates as you close the editor, not on some later refresh of its own. 3) Clearing is not deleting Clearing a slot empties the text and keeps the slot, so the widget you placed keeps working. A single-tap Undo holds the text for a few seconds in case you did not mean it. 4) Nothing is ever renumbered Slot 4 is slot 4 even when slots 1 to 3 are empty. A binding never shifts under you. 5) Take a copy out One tap shares all five notes as plain text, so you are never locked in. ------------------------------- ● Private by design ------------------------------- • Zero network code. Nothing leaves this phone, ever — check it in airplane mode. • Your notes are stored on this device only. • No account, no login, no sign-up. Privacy label: Data Not Collected. • Zero analytics. Zero telemetry. Zero third-party SDKs. • No ads. No subscriptions. • Zero notifications — the app never interrupts you. • No system permission is requested at all: no camera, microphone, location, contacts, or photos. ------------------------------- ● Built to be read and tapped ------------------------------- • Body text starts at 24pt and every control is at least 64 × 64 pt. • High-contrast type on an AMOLED-friendly black background. • Single taps only. No swipes, no long-presses, no hidden gestures inside the app. • Six languages, right-to-left included: English, 한국어, 日本語, Deutsch, Français, العربية. ------------------------------- ● Good for ------------------------------- • The shopping list you want to read without unlocking • A door code, a wifi password, a parking level • Today's three things • A phrase you are trying to remember in another language • Anything you would otherwise text to yourself ------------------------------- ● Five slots, on purpose ------------------------------- Five notes, five widgets, no menus. The fixed count is what removes the list, the folders, the search field and the "where did I put it" — and it is what lets one tap on a tile be the whole interface. ------------------------------- ● The Baro promise ------------------------------- Sticky Notes is part of Baro — lightweight tools that respect your data, your battery, and your time. "The tools you reach for first." The widgets require iOS 16 or later. The app itself runs on iOS 13 and later and works exactly the same, with or without a widget placed.

Your calendar manages your schedule. Annidiem remembers the days for you. If you think you're a bit ahead of the curve, this one's for you. Birthdays, weddings, exams, trips, the day your baby arrived, the day you moved in — the days that matter deserve better than a crowded calendar. Some are still ahead of you. Some already happened. Either way, they deserve somewhere to stay. Flip the bottom-right corner of a card and it turns over into that day's own record. You don't have to wait for the day itself — write while you're looking forward to it, while you miss it, or the moment it crosses your mind: photos, thoughts, voice memos, short videos, each one stamped with the place and weather of that moment. No folders to create, no "where should this photo go" — it belongs to a day, so it stays with that day. If you remember which day it was, you'll find it again. And when the same day comes round again, every year keeps its own: this year never mixes with last. When a day is no longer in focus, put it away — not throw it out. It leaves your home screen and stops reminding you, while the diary and photos stay, ready to bring back. Life gets simpler. The memories don't have to. - TALK TO THIS DAY — flip a card over for that day's own record; write whenever it comes to you - ARCHIVE — put days that no longer need your attention away, without deleting anything - CARD WALL — big countdown numbers for every day that matters - TICKING MOMENTS — live days/hours/minutes/seconds; past days keep counting up: 1000 days together, 90 days smoke-free, day 300 of the project - WEEK & DAY OF YEAR — which week and day of the year today is, at a glance - PHOTO COVERS — pick a photo for a date and the card becomes its face - ON THIS DAY — the days that happened on today's date in past years surface on their own - DYNAMIC ISLAND — pin any day to your Dynamic Island - WIDGETS — gradient cards, Lock Screen widgets, and a large widget that shows your next five days - ERA OF DAYS — one 3D timeline for all your days: days with photos stand along the road, tap one to fly in - APPLE WATCH SYNC — a glance at your wrist: watch app and watch face complications, updated from your iPhone - TAKE A BREATHER — the screen dims, and the fireworks begin - WORTH SHARING — five share card styles: gradient, minimal, poster, midnight, photo - ANY RHYTHM — daily, weekly, monthly, or an interval you set yourself; paydays and bill days stay in step - FIND ANY DAY — search titles, notes, even "August"; filter to this month, the next 30 days, or what's already past - ASK SIRI — "how many days until New Year?" works, and so do Shortcuts and system search - REMINDERS YOUR WAY — the day itself, or 1/3/7/14/30 days ahead, at a time you choose - TYPE DAYS, GET DATES — enter "100 days" and the date computes itself - FACE ID LOCK — auto-lock in background; some days are yours alone - CALENDAR BRIDGE — import from system Calendar; export .ics/JSON to iCloud Drive - ICLOUD SYNC — sign in to iCloud and every device stays in sync - DATE CALCULATOR — days from birth to today, or today to payday; days between dates, business days, and more - ON-DEVICE AI BLESSINGS — Apple Intelligence writes personalized blessings, fully offline (iPhone 15 Pro or later) One-time purchase · No subscription · No ads · Collects no data — your data stays on your device and in your own private iCloud database, and everything works offline.
