DawnletYour day, gently organized.

A day is one thing.

Most apps make it five. Dawnlet keeps all of it together — your plans, habits, money and time — one day at a time.

For iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch, in light and dark

The tour

Two minutes to knowing your way around.

The same tour the app gives you on its first launch: zoom out to the month, narrow to the week, land on a day — then what adds up from living in it for a while.

Step 1 of 7
The shape of it

Five tabs, one day.

Agenda for the day itself, Journal for your mood and reflecting on it, Time and Finance for the two modules you open most, and Lens for how the week is going, with search at the top. Every other module, and Settings, wait behind the left edge - swipe in from it. Nothing is buried more than two taps deep.

  • Agenda — the week or month grid, and the day underneath
  • Swipe in from the left edge — every module is behind it, in your order
  • Search — at the top of Lens, for people, todos, events, habits, settings and more
Under the hood
Zoom outPlan My Month is Plus

Start with the month.

Plan My Month walks you through the month ahead instead of leaving you staring at an empty grid: what's already fixed, what you want to get to, and what it should cost.

  • Events, timed or all-day, one-off or repeating
  • Trips and books span days, so day 3 of 8 says so
  • Budgets are per calendar month, with no surprise rollover
The Todos & events playbook
Narrow inPlan My Week is Plus

Shape the week.

Plan My Week is the shorter pass — seven days, one at a time. It's where a vague month turns into things that actually have a day attached.

  • Repeating todos on weekly, monthly or nth-weekday schedules
  • Habits every day, on the weekdays you pick, or a few times a week
  • Skip one occurrence and the schedule carries on
The Habits playbook
Where you live

Then just live the day.

Agenda is one day, broken into a section per module. What's due, what's planned, and what you already finished — in your order, not ours.

  • Tap to check something off; swipe to skip an occurrence
  • Reorder or hide sections, so the day reads in your order
  • "View all" on any section opens that module's full screen
The Agenda playbook
As you go

Catch it while it's small.

The small stuff never survives a form. So a meal, a gratitude, a journal line, a payment or a timer is a couple of taps from the day it belongs to.

  • Meals and gratitudes are logged from the day itself
  • Journal takes as many entries a day as you like
  • The timer keeps real pause segments, so totals stay honest
The Time tracking playbook
It adds up

Streaks you can trust.

Dawnlet stores the days you did a habit, not a number it increments. Every streak and percentage is derived from that log — so fixing a day in the past fixes everything downstream.

  • Month insights on every module screen Plus
  • Reports across any range you pick, exportable as PDF Plus
  • Your data out as CSV or JSON, whenever you want it Plus
How streaks and badges are earned
Quietly

Notifications that find you.

Every notification is computed on your device from your own data, two weeks ahead at a time. Close the app for a week and it keeps working — there is no notification server in this app.

  • 35 kinds across every module, each one toggleable
  • Quiet hours shift the gentle ones and drop the urgent ones
  • A feed of what you were actually notified about
The Notifications playbook
Where it runs

One day. Three screens.

The same day, sized for whatever you happen to be holding - in light or dark, upright or sideways. Everything syncs through your own account, so what you tick off in one place is already done in the others.

Landscape

Any way you hold it

On iPad, screens split into two columns whenever the window is wide enough - in portrait, in landscape, or side by side with another app.

Not a stretched phone app

A sidebar listing every module instead of a tab bar, Lens in two columns, and list rows that use the width rather than leaving it blank down the middle.

The whole app, a day at a time

Every module, plus Home Screen widgets for today's todos, your habits, the running timer and what's next.

Apple Watch, on its own

Tick off today's habits and todos, and run the timer without reaching for your phone — even with no signal. Its complications show a count and nothing else — no titles on a face others can see.

What's inside

Eleven modules, one day.

Events, todos, habits, money, time, journal and more, all sharing the same categories, tags and day, and what's free and what's Plus in each.

Pricing

Free to use, Plus when you want it.

$3.99 / month

or $34.99 a year — about $2.92 a month, saving 27%

  • Month insights on every module, and no 500-item cap
  • Reports across any date range - every module, or just one from its insights - with PDF export
  • Plan My Week, with each day's events beside it, and Plan My Month
  • A day timeline: your events and tracked time, hour by hour
  • Your data exported as CSV or JSON
  • Anything that repeats — todos, events and bills — plus budgets, repeated from last month in one tap
  • Journal "on this day", adding events to Apple Calendar, and what you've done together with each person, with a nudge to keep in touch
  • The other 13 notification kinds: recaps, evening review, streak milestones, time goals, budget and bill alerts
  • Chat with Dawnlet, weather on Agenda and for your trips, journal prompts from your day, and sleep beside your moods

The present is free. Looking back is Plus. Capturing your day — all of it, in every module, including your money — costs nothing, and so does reading back every day you ever recorded. Plus is the layer that only exists because you kept using the app: insights, reports, export, and the automation that repeats things for you. Notifications about what's ahead are table stakes, so they're free — except the budget and bill alerts, which only exist once you have Plus's budgets and repeating bills.

Reviews

What people say so far.

Dawnlet has been on the App Store since October 1, 2026. Here's what people have written there so far, word for word.

Love this app

Simply, I loved Dawnlet once I installed it and started using it. Very well done.

Karimster1, App Store review, October 4, 2026

Great App!

Really impressed with Dawnlet so far! It’s nice having everything I need in one app — from planning my day and keeping up with tasks to managing my money. The expense tracker and custom budget categories are especially useful, and I love being able to see a clear overview of my spending. The reminders are super handy too, and the little achievement badges make staying on top of things more enjoyable. Such a useful app to have!

AussieGirl000, App Store review (Australia), October 4, 2026

Impressed

Really impressed with Dawnlet so far! The finance tools are a standout, especially the custom categories and spending breakdowns. I also love having planning, habits, goals, books and movies together. The achievements are a fun touch too. Great start for a new app!

Compared

How Dawnlet compares.

Todoist and Notion are both very good at what they do. Dawnlet does something different: one person's whole day - plans, habits, money, time and journal - ready the moment you open it.

Dawnlet vs Todoist

Todoist is a task manager. Dawnlet puts your todos next to the rest of your day.

  • Habits with a streak per habit
  • Spending, income and monthly budgets
  • A time tracker on your Lock Screen
  • A journal with your daily mood
  • A 14-day free trial, and no usage data collected

Dawnlet vs Notion

Notion is a workspace you build yourself. Dawnlet comes ready.

  • Plan your days ahead, with Plan My Week and Plan My Month
  • Habits, spending and budgets built in - no templates to set up
  • A time tracker on your Lock Screen
  • 35 kinds of notification, set up for you
  • No usage data collected

Questions

Reasonable things to ask.

Is Dawnlet available yet?

Yes. Dawnlet is on the App Store for iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch, and the changelog lists what's in each version and what's coming next.

Do I need an account?

Yes, via Sign in with Apple. Your data syncs against an internal account ID so it survives reinstalling the app and moving to a new phone. Dawnlet stores the email Apple provides and, if you share it, your name — nothing else about you, and none of it for marketing.

Is there an Android or web version?

Not today. Dawnlet is a native iOS app. A web client is planned but hasn't been started.

Does it work offline?

Yes. Open Dawnlet with no connection and your agenda, habits, todos, events and Lens show what was there last time, from a protected copy kept on your device, with a small banner saying you're offline, and notifications keep firing because they're scheduled on the device up to two weeks ahead. It works for changing too: almost anything you add, tick off, edit or delete with no signal is kept on your device and syncs in order when you're back - the timer included, on iPhone and Apple Watch - and if another device changed the same thing first, yours waits for you to look at rather than being lost. A few things still need a connection, such as setting up something that repeats.

Is there a free trial?

Yes — 14 days, on either plan. The trial belongs to the subscription as a whole, so you get it once whether you start monthly or yearly. Nothing is charged until it ends, and you can cancel during it.

Can I cancel, or switch between monthly and yearly?

Both, from Settings on your iPhone — Apple handles billing, so Dawnlet never sees a card. Switching up to yearly takes effect immediately with the remainder of the month credited, and switching down to monthly waits until the year you've already paid for is over. Cancel and Plus stays on until the period you paid for runs out, then the app quietly falls back to the free tier — your data and your settings stay exactly where they were.

What happens to my data if I stop using Dawnlet?

You can delete your entire account from inside the app. That removes the account and everything attached to it — not a soft delete.

Your first three moves

Start with today.

That's the whole tour. Once you've downloaded Dawnlet, three things make the first week feel like yours:

  • Set up a few categories — they colour the whole app
  • Add three habits. Three, not thirteen
  • Run Plan My Week from the calendar button beside Agenda's +
