I built a calendar you can actually customize

Hi r/iosapps!

About four months ago, I shared the first version of Hibi here. Many of you liked the app for its design and gave me great feedback, which I already implemented. I kept building, and version 3 now feels like a completely new app since you can now customize your calendar!

What it does (Answer): Hibi turns your existing Apple calendars and reminders into paper-like daily pages you can customize.

Why it’s different (Better): You can draw and write, customize the paper, arrange each page, create stickers and washi tape from your photos, and use Apple Pencil on iPad - so you remember your days.

Cost: The app is free to download, with no subscription. There’s an optional $6.99 lifetime in app purchase to unlock premium app icons and home screen widgets.

I’m the developer, and I’d love to hear what you think of how far it has come!

Just launched my first app on Google Play – looking for honest feedback

Hi everyone!

After months of development, I finally launched my first app on Google Play. It's a planning app focused on organizing tasks, shared calendars, shopping lists, notes, and goals with friends or family.

I'd really appreciate honest feedback on the Play Store listing, onboarding, UI, or anything that stands out.

Thanks for taking a look! Joinplanner

My free 469-page hyperlinked planner is back for 2027 =]

Planner season's here — presenting the Note/Note Composition Planner, now in its third year!

As always, the Composition Planners are totally free to download. It matters to me that this stays reachable for anyone trying to plan better, build habits, or just journal =]

Swipe through for a peek at both color modes (Kinako light & Kurogoma dark) and a look at how the hyperlinking actually gets built — every one of the 469 pages, linked and checked by hand.

If you end up loving it, there's a pay-what-you-wish option on the download page — totally optional, no pressure.

Download link's in the first pic! 🤍

My Notion Life Organizer just reached #33 in Personal Home on the Notion Marketplace 🌿

I'm still pretty new to creating Notion templates, so this is honestly my first little Marketplace achievement. I never even thought about rankings before this, which made seeing #33 such a nice surprise. 🥺

A month ago I shared V2 here after rebuilding the template from scratch based on feedback from this community.

Since then:

→ 120+ downloads
→ 380+ views
→ now #33 in Personal Home

The template is intentionally lightweight and focuses on the boring-but-important parts of life 🚀:

→ Bills & subscriptions
→ Important documents
→ Health records
→ Home maintenance
→ Personal tasks

It's been really cool seeing something I originally built for myself actually get used by other people.

Just wanted to share the little win with the community that helped me improve it. ❤️

Free template for anyone who wants to try it:

  • You can share and compare your calendar with friends/family with varying privacy levels.
  • You can drag and drop to make sharable itineraries right in the app.
  • You can see your events/travels/friends on a globe
  • You can make and share external event pages with text blasts

i was inspired by Cal newport theory and ADHD friend and wanted to make it real

Hello guys, nothing interesting about me, im just a 21 years old engineering Student like any other student in the world. I was the kind of person spending my time randomly, whenever i feel to study i do, whenever i need to fix papers, buy my room supplies, i do, same thing for my other hobbies like sport or cooking or even gaming. The thing is that the activities other than studying were just ignored most of the time under the pressure of studying.

That was for me how life can be, i mean u have time and u just spend it on something, but my vision started to change since i read Deep Work book of Cal Newport and i knew that our brains have a time in the day, with a maximum of 4 hours of deep focus, where your brain is on its maximum potential. Those 4 hours are meant to be the time where u do everything that costs the most energy, like studying for example or working for freelancers. And the rest of the tasks that consume minimum energy from the brain, or they are just not main tasks, are meant to be not crucial in our career. Lets say sport for students for example, or house chores or even shopping.

This experience and this idea is the origin of my will to create an app about it, and i already did, but it’s still in development, and to be specific, in the test phase, so i dont need users, im here to discuss the idea. I do really believe in the deep/shallow work theory, and the app is based on that. Simple idea, create blocks for the whole week, days and month, deep blocks for deep work, shallow blocks for the shallow ones, u track ur progress with the review section and u can also put long-term goals for the future.

The idea is also dedicated to ADHD people, because i was also inspired by how my friend who has ADHD lives his life in general.

i wont make it longer, just honest feedback. You as a user, student or worker or whatever, how do u find the idea? u imagine urself using such an app in your life?

How I'm tracking my habits in spreadsheet

Hello everyone,

Almost two years since reading David Goggins book "Can't Hurt Me" I've decided to make one more attempt to change something in my life. I've tried lots and lots of different applications for tracking habits, but most of them require to have a phone and there are almost no applications for desktop or even web. Especially it become a problem when you try to avoid your phone as much as possible but you need to enter your habits.

One day opened Number (Excel alternative by Apple) and decided to make my own tracker. For me it's very important to not only track "boolean" habits like done or not but also some metrics such as: when I go to bed, wake-up time, number of calories eaten.

Basically instead of marking "slept 8hr" with done or not done I actually track my wake-up and bed time. Same for steps.

I have a bunch of formatting rules for each habit, for done/undone I use green and red. Gray means that I skipped this day for some reason.

After few month of tracking I realized that I'm not skipping tracking my habits. And here is why:

  • Bulk edit, it's very convenient to open a file and quickly track everything
  • Customizable, basically it a canvas, do whatever you want

So this is my habit tracking system, I've attached older screenshot from previous year with some fake data because I'm not fully comfortable to share my current metrics right now, but the system itself didn't change at all.

I also building an application based on this approach for myself so I don't need to have a files so maybe somewhere in the future I will share with you.

After using this spreadsheet for year and a half I decided to finally build my own app which works in browser and ios - https://habitpocket.io/

Made a digital planner that's a 24h dial instead of the usual vertical layout

Wanted to see my whole day as one shape instead of scrolling a column. So it's a clock. Full 24h ring, blocks are wedges. You draw a sleep block and it paints an energy curve over the next day (built from your sleep + circadian rhythm), so you can actually see your morning fog and afternoon crash before you plan into them.

if anyone wanna try it check reassign.ai

Question since you all live in planners: does a circular day read better to you than a vertical one, or does the column just win?

Interactive lists/reminders for iPad?

I’m looking for:

Handwritten “to-do” list
Tasks that be categorized
A “master list” where all tasks, regardless of date, stay compiled together but can either be sorted (today, tomorrow, next week, future) or manually moved up or down
iPad friendly

Ideally:
iCal syncing
Part of a journaling app
Daily/weekly view
Ability to add notes to a task that are collapsible, so only the main task name is automatically displayed

How can i organize my habit tracking and make it more effective/aesthetically pleasing? Any habit tracking pros that can help :3 (audhd) looking for any kind of tips, be it organization wise or aesthetics wise

(19 yrs old) Ive been using obsidian for a month now and its helped my exec. dysfunction sooo much it really is a godsend. Though i had never worried about how it looked before, its starting to bother me how ugly and empty it looks. I use it to track various things but idk if how im doing it is the best way, and idk if the values im using are good for each. Im also using the MetaBind plug in to reduce friction when adding metadata.

This is my daily note where i like to track when i wake up and get out of bed separately since im very prone to bed rotting lol, and other stuff. any help or references would be appreciated!! i struggle writing enough so my notes always look barren and empty and kinda sad but using obsidian has been a blast either way. I also like that i can fill everything at the end of the day even if i dont perfectly remember at what time i specifically got out of bed it still helps a lot.

I usually write my thoughts anywhere in between the inlaid metadata spaces starting with the hour im writing it

what im currently tracking (in order):

Wake up time, Get up time, Meds i took. Creating (any artistic activity), Time studying (0-5hrs) Food Quantity (kinda weird but mostly counting full meals), Meal Quality (1-5), overall mood, Time i go to bed and time i fall asleep (which is kinda weird bc i mostly fill it up the next day according to when i remember i fell asleep)

Im always excited to add and remove and change up my vault and i find it loads of fun + its so helpful its really an amazing program!! tysm in advance for any opinions given. <3

Ever get stuck because you can't see where to start? Same. (+giveaway)

Task paralysis isn't a motivation problem. It's a "the task is too big" problem.

You know the feeling. You have to plan a trip, launch a project, move apartments. You know it needs doing, but it's so big you can't see where to start. So it lives on your list for months.

Most productivity tools give you a blank page and another list to fill. The hard part was never the list. It's the invisible work of figuring out every step, in order, before you've even started.

What can maybe fix it

I'm the maker of Brevl, and this problem is exactly what its built around. You describe a task in one sentence, like "plan a 3 week Europe trip." Brevl builds an overview canvas of the whole thing, showing every part of the task and how it connects, plus a broken down list of ordered steps you can work through one at a time. You see the full map, then zoom into a single step.

Then it goes further than any planner I've used. It actually executes the steps across the apps you already use, with your approval on every action. For the trip, it creates the itinerary in Google Sheets, blocks the days in your calendar, saves a booking checklist in Notion, drafts the confirmation email. You review, click approve, and it's done.

Why you'd actually use this

  • The breakdown is automatic. No planning sessions, no blank pages
  • See everything at once: the big picture on the canvas, the details in the step list
  • No context switching. The work happens inside Notion, Slack, Google Sheets, Calendar, Todoist, Asana, Jira, Airtable, and 25+ others, connected in one click
  • Nothing to build or learn. No workflows, no new system
  • You keep control. Every action needs your approval, and your data is encrypted and never used for training
  • Big personal milestones stop living on the "someday" list

Giveaway

I have 10 lifetime accounts to give away today. To enter:

  1. Create a task on Brevl (like the trip, launch, or move you've been putting off)
  2. Comment below with that task

That's it. I'll pick 10 people at random from the comments.

If you don't win, there's a free version with 10 breakdowns and 500 credits/month and all integrations included, no credit card needed: https://brevl.co

Happy to answer questions in the comments.

DayDraft: Unique app to track, bill and plan whatever you can imagine. Almighty AI included. A few cool features too. Creator is a sarcastic one.

Yes, it was created with the help of dark matters of LLM. I can’t say it’s Vibe Coded, though. Vibe is something cheerful and… you know, vibing. But the process of developing DayDraft was far from vibing. I suffered, I locked myself in isolation, I spent a lot of hours learning a lot about creating an app, about life itself… and made such things that I’m afraid to mention here.

I created it to help my wife who has an hourly wage and needed something simple yet powerful to track time. And for myself, because I always forget things at the grocery store and got into trouble with my wife. And of course it wasn’t necessary, but I added some AI functions just to make some people angry.

A. Answer

- So what problem does it solve? A lot of planners and trackers already exist. Agree. Nothing special. But don’t judge a book, or in this case an app, by its cover.

- Picture it, you’re sitting in front of the screen, cursing a project you’re working on and thinking of quitting. But then you open DayDraft to check how much hours you wasted and see that your hours actually cost some money, print a report with all payment info and send to your employer. Done.

- After you spent some time observing DayDraft you realized that the tracker was working but you didn’t actually work. No problem. Adjust time manually before making a report, because you can see every session in detail.

- Don’t be too happy about adding extra hours to get money from your employer, because the report will show every change you made. Yes, you will build trust with your employer like it or not.

- What if you always forget to go do something important? You have Timeline Plan and Checklist plan.

- If you’re still here, it means something clicked inside, so let’s continue with part B.

B. Better

- So what’s better in my app than in hundreds of thousands of others? First of all, I just try to do the best that’s in my power.

- You can dictate or write your plan for the day or a checklist however you want. Even if you don’t know how to write or express your thoughts properly, the app will still understand you and build a coherent plan out of the mess.

- AI can also create a schedule in the Timeline Plan and suggest how to better build your day based on history.

- At its core this is of course a tracker, which works even after a phone reboot. Forgot to start the timer? Not a problem. Just fill it in manually, and your client will see it in the plan, and if you decided to cheat, that will be visible too.

- You can add notes and clearly point out what every second of your time went to, building a trusting relationship with whoever you work with.

- I can tell that this app even improved relationships with my wife, since I no longer text her endlessly about forgetting what to buy at the store, I just open the plan and follow it.

- Checklist Plan is flexible and can be split into categories, quickly mark things done or not.

- A small bonus, daily interesting facts and small quizzes for those as curious as I am.

- In Reports you can analyze your productivity and see the history of your working hours and how much of that desired money you earned.

- Not exactly a feature, but in Settings you can turn off any notifications, or fine tune them for Timeline Plan mode if needed.

C. Cost

Subscription:

Year $59.99

Month $9.99

Week $3.99

Not a hard paywall, though. Without paying, you can still track your time and build your plans, both Timeline and Checklist. What you don’t get is the AI functions, the payment details, and the reports.

If you think it’s too expensive or cheap, maybe you’re right. I just followed my heart ))

P.S

And thank you. Really. Thanks to everyone who reads this nonsense, who leaves a review, who finds a bug and tells me about it, who says something nice or something harsh. And thanks just because. It means more than you think when you’re building something alone.

I built an iPad journal that turns your handwriting into structured data — solo dev, just launched

Solo dev, just launched on the App Store. You journal with Apple Pencil, a vision model reads your handwriting, and your tasks/notes sync to Notion automatically. It also runs as an MCP server so Claude can read and write to your journal pages.

A few details about the stack:

  • SwiftUI + PencilKit, SwiftData + iCloud for local, Supabase for the API layer
  • OCR via GLM-4.6V (~$0.003/page). Because it's a vision-enabled LLM, it's able to use the rest of the page context to accurately decipher sloppy handwriting (a real plus for users like me!)
  • Solo dev, no funding, no waitlist

More at penlog.app — happy to answer questions about the build.
