Description

The warmth of a paper planner, the power of your iPhone. Write your days, stick stickers on your dates, and watch your life fill a beautiful calendar — journal, diary, goals, and planner in one quiet, ad-free app. Free to start; Pro is a one-time purchase or a subscription — your choice.

Open it to a calendar, not a blank page: your entries, photos, and stickers live right inside the month, week, and day views, so every glance tells the story of your life.

**Switching from Day One?**
Bring your entire journal home in minutes — every entry, photo, and voice recording. Choose your export in Settings → Import and Dayleaf does the rest, even for journals with a decade of memories. Free, forever.

**Photos & Voice Notes**
Attach photos to any entry and see them right on your calendar. Tap the mic to capture a voice note on the spot — some days deserve to be heard, not typed.

**Planner Stickers**
Birthday, Pay day, Trip, Deadline, Date night… stick them on any date like a real paper planner — or design your own with your choice of icon and color.

**Fourteen Hand-Crafted Themes**
Paper, Forest, Ocean, Lavender, Rosé, Ink & Gold, Sunset, Olive, Retro, Clay, Frost, Linen, Kraft, Pop — each tuned by hand with a light and a dark face, several with their own page construction. Your journal, your mood.

**Make Every Planner Yours**
Create color-coded planners for Work, Health, Books, Travel — then give each its own icon, font, and text size. Handwriting for gratitude, typewriter for work: entries wear their planner's personality everywhere.

**Set Goals. Reflect. Grow.**
Daily, weekly, and monthly goals with a Notes & Reflection space to look back and write how it really went — just like the review pages of a great paper planner.

**Three Calendar Views: Month, Week & Day**
Month shows entry previews right inside calendar cells, Week gives each day its own card, and Day focuses on one day at a time — goals, stickers, and all.

**A Gentle Daily Reminder**
Pick a time and Dayleaf taps you on the shoulder. One tap on the notification drops you straight into today's page.

**Find Anything Instantly**
Powerful search finds any entry in seconds, and the Timeline scrolls your whole story — built to stay fast even with ten years of entries.

**Private. Backed Up. Always Yours.**
One-tap backups to your own iCloud — entries, photos, voice notes, stickers, everything. No account required, no tracking, and your journal stays in your own Apple account. Restore anywhere, anytime.

**Beautiful Everywhere**
Rich serif headlines, a warm paper-inspired design, full iPad support, printing, and email export (text or CSV).
