New: Home and Lock Screen widgets. See today's tasks at a glance and tick them off without opening the app.
Dawny is for the tasks you want to do soon, or someday. Not the daily must-dos (keep those in Reminders, they'll get done anyway), but the "I'll take care of that this week" tasks that pile up, go stale, and quietly bury your list.
You pick a few of them for today. Whatever you don't finish gets cleared out overnight and returns to the backlog, with no red badges and no guilt. Unfinished tasks aren't failures, they're information.
Most to-do lists don't drown in work. They drown in the leftovers. Completed tasks never checked off, forgotten ideas, and things that lost their relevance weeks ago. That clutter blocks your focus and makes planning a burden. Dawny is different, because Dawny is built on a radical idea, a system with the courage to forget.
Every night at 3 AM, your Daily Focus is cleared. What you didn't get to moves back to your backlog. Nothing is deleted. No judgment. There is no "overdue", only a fresh decision for today, because you know best what matters now and what can wait.
What Dawny offers:
• The 3 AM reset. Every morning is a real fresh start, because your Daily Focus is empty when you wake up.
• Never overdue. Dawny doesn't care about the past, only about now.
• Make It Count. Tasks you keep pushing off get archived. Still important? One swipe puts them back on the list.
• Widgets for your Home and Lock Screen. See today at a glance, tick tasks off right in the widget, and pull something up from the backlog with a single tap.
• Syncs with Apple Reminders. The tasks you pick for today show up right where you already look.
• Add tasks by voice. Just tell Siri.
• Privacy first. No servers, no tracking. Your data stays on your device or in your own iCloud.

Widgets are here!
Put Dawny on your Home Screen or Lock Screen and see your day without opening the app:
• Today tab widget shows your tasks for the day, tick them off right in the widget
• Backlog tab widget shows you what's waiting, with a tap to pull something into today
• Archive tab widget gives you a look back at what you finished
All three come in small, medium and large. Today also works on the Lock Screen.
Bugfixes in this release:
• The archive now reliably marks what has arrived since your last visit
• Lists refresh properly after the 3 AM reset, when switching tabs, and after syncing with Reminders
