Why Daily Board

I like Apple Reminders and Calendar. I just got tired of opening four apps to find out what my day looks like — and the journal and notes I kept elsewhere never stuck, because they didn't live where I already was.

So Daily Board puts all of it on one screen, and keeps every bit of it on the device.

See it in action

Real screens from the running app, not mockups.

The whole day on one timeline

Reminders and calendar events together, in order. Type "dentist tomorrow 10am" and it becomes a real Apple Reminder with that due date — no ten fields to tap through. Tap to complete, swipe to reschedule.

Reflection that actually sticks

A short morning and evening check-in, right where your todos already are. On-device AI turns what you wrote into real tasks — here "Call the dentist" and "Buy groceries" — without sending a single word to a server.

Quick notes, nothing more

Deliberately as thin as Apple Notes: searchable, rich text when you need it, and titled automatically from the first line so you never name a note you'll read once.

Yours to control

Pick which calendar feeds Today, switch journal reminders on or off, and export a local JSON backup whenever you want. There's no account to manage, because there is no account.

Today tab: Wed 23 selected in the day strip, two reminders (Call the dentist, Buy groceries) on one timeline, quick-add field at the bottom
Journal tab: a morning free-text entry with two AI-suggested to-dos already turned into tappable items, and a 5-emoji evening rating
Notes tab: a searchable list with one note automatically titled Grocery list from its first line
Settings tab: calendar picker, journal reminder toggles, and a manual backup export button

What's next

Daily Board isn't meant to be a second home screen — it's meant to keep growing into one real information center, not more apps. Here's what that means concretely:

Mail & messages

Which emails and messages still need a reply, surfaced right on Today instead of buried across three different inboxes.

Claude & AI sessions

Which AI sessions are waiting on my input, and where — so a running Claude session doesn't quietly stall just because I forgot to check back.

A personal second brain

Eventually pulling context from my own second brain instead of typing the same thing in twice — Daily Board becomes a window into it, not another place to feed.

Privacy, in full

Daily Board does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data to my or any third party's servers. This is the complete privacy policy, not a summary.

Reminders & Calendar
Displayed and edited in the daily board, stored on your device and synced only via your own iCloud account (Apple's technology, not mine). No second copy is ever kept.
Journal & Notes
Stored exclusively on-device (SwiftData). Deleted when you remove an entry, or when you uninstall the app.
On-device AI
Optional journal task suggestions run entirely locally via Apple's FoundationModels framework — no text is ever sent to a server, mine, Apple's, or anyone else's.
Backup
An optional local JSON backup (weekly or manual) lands in the app's own Documents folder, visible via the Files app — you decide if and where to move it. The app never uploads it automatically.
No sharing with third parties
No advertising, no analytics or tracking services, no data sharing, no in-app purchases, no cloud backend run by me.
