We've been sold a lie about productivity.
More features. More notifications. 😓 Red badges screaming for attention. 🔴 Endless lists that grow faster than you can clear them. More guilt when you fall behind. 😫 Somewhere along the way, the tools that promise to help you get things done have become another source of stress and burnout. 🔥
Apps that treat your attention like a resource to be extracted. 👁️ Your day like a problem to be optimized. Your worth like a function of your output.
This isn't that.
There's a gentler way. It's called Solarday. 🌅
An antidote to hustle theatre.
Stop measuring days by degree of productivity and start experiencing them by degree of presence.
— Alan Watts
This is Day.
Day view — your calm home
The weather for the next 24 hours ⛅️, a daily intention, a summary of what's up ahead and a space for reflection come together in a quiet canvas called Day.
It's your mindful home amidst the ups & downs of the day. From morning to evening.
The app interface itself is calming somehow, doesn't create a sense of overwhelm

This is Do.
Do view — what's next today?
Do is intentionally designed for doing less, with more focus. Success doesn't come from doing more things—it comes from doing the few things that matter well.
Doing less means you get more time for yourself and your relationships. Over the long run, doing less makes you more creative, more prosperous and happier. 💖
Concentrate all your thoughts upon the work in hand. The Sun's rays do not burn until brought to a focus.
— Alexander Graham Bell
Intentions & Reflections help you feel better and live more.
One of the most powerful ways to feel better is starting your day with intention. 🙏 Every single day, Solarday helps you set a mindful intention to guide you through the day.
In what way do you want to show up to the world today?
Intention & Reflection
💭 Reflections let you close the loop on the ups & downs of the day, so you can start afresh the next morning.
They can also be used as daily notes to yourself—about your life, the world, ideas you want to remember. All in chronological order, ready when you need them.
Instead of being scattered and not knowing where to start, the daily intention helps me take a breath

Future makes space for your forward-looking ideas.
Future — what's on the horizon?
It's a catch-all space for everything that's not today. It's where you snooze things to. It's everything in your life that's TBD. 🔮

Themes add colour to your day.
Cream and ink, space and intention. At night, the page turns — a quieter room, same stillness, softer edges.
Morning light bottled. A gentle glow that stays with you. After dark, the sky shifts — that moment just after the sun dips below the horizon. A desert sky cooling, the last warmth held close.
Overcast skies and quiet streets. Muted, restful, unhurried. At night, the city settles — everything hushed, streetlights dimmed, the calm of a world asleep.
Stepping into the woods. Moss underfoot, light filtering through leaves. After dark, the canopy closes in — lantern-glow and fireflies, the forest holding you still.
No ads. No creepy tracking. Just a tool that helps you feel calmer and stay more present as you do things.
