How it works

A minute a day.
Thirty days in a row.

  1. 01

    Pick a run

    Choose how many days and the three to five things you want to do every one of them. Seven days to test the water, thirty to build a habit, ninety to change something.

  2. 02

    Log it honestly

    Each goal gets done, partly, or skipped. No streak-shaming: partly counts as half, and a skip just asks what got in the way.

  3. 03

    Read the pattern

    The ledger fills in as you go. By week two you can see which goals stick, which slide, and which days you run out of energy.

The part other trackers skip

Skipping
is data.

Most habit apps only count wins, so a missed day just breaks the chain. Daybook asks one quick question instead: what got in the way? A month later the answer isn't “I'm lazy”. It's that work ran over six times, and that's something you can plan around.

What's inside

Everything for the run.
Nothing else.

Daily log

Every goal, one tap. A note for what you did, a line of reflection and an energy rating at the end of the day. Fill in yesterday if you forgot.

Projects

For the things that take longer than a day: a phase from idea to live, a percentage, the very next step, a target date, and the days you touched it.

Reminders

A soft chime at the times you choose, with snooze and a shortcut straight to today's log. Install it to your home screen and it behaves like an app.

Progress

What you kept, your streak, clean days, energy over time and a goal-by-goal grid. Honest numbers: partly counts as half.

Every device

Phone, laptop,

Privacy

Your days,
your call.

  • No account needed

    Start without signing in. Everything stays in your browser until you choose to sync.

  • Sync is opt-in

    Sign in with Google to keep your run in your account and on all your devices. We never sell it or use it for ads, and there are no analytics.

  • Backups in your own Drive

    Turn on Drive backup and a complete copy lands in a “Daybook” folder you own. Daybook can only see files it created.

Start day one.
