Specify whether your event needs only a date, a date and time, or start and end dates and times. Add a note if you want. You can even set up regular or one-time reminders. Log It All lets you log different types of events on the fly as they occur and place them in categories later, or not at all. Load the sample data to get a head start. You can remove it whenever you want. If you have any questions, go to the Help tab for answers. Log It All is designed to be flexible, so you can do it your way. Log anything: • Car — oil changes, tire pressure checks, maintenance • Home — filter changes, yard work, repairs • Health — symptoms, medications, workouts • Baby — feedings, naps, milestones • Subscriptions — renewals, with a reminder before you're billed • …or absolutely anything you want to remember Features: • Timeline & reports — view entries by date or by event, and share a PDF • Reminders — one-time or repeating, so you never miss a renewal or refill • Private by design — your data lives in your own iCloud and syncs across your devices; no ads, no tracking, no accounts • Sample data — load a full example with one tap to explore, then remove it just as easily • Backup & restore — export your data to a file anytime • Moving from Trak'n'Turn?
