DayCast now lives outside the app. FOCUS TIMER, EVERYWHERE A running session shows on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island with pause and end buttons, mirrors to Apple Watch, and can ring an alarm when it ends, even in Silent mode. Close the app; the timer keeps going. CONTROL CENTER Start a focus session, add a task, log an expense, or open a journal entry from Control Center, the Lock Screen, or the Action button. WIDGETS A new Today widget with one-tap check-off, a Journal widget with your streak and today's prompt, and a Spending widget in every size, including Lock Screen widgets. SAVE FROM ANY APP Share a link, text, PDF, or photo to DayCast and it becomes a note, a task, or a library PDF. PDFs and text files open in DayCast from Files and Mail. SIRI AND SHORTCUTS "Start a focus session in DayCast." "Log my mood in DayCast." "Complete a task in DayCast." Tasks, notes, events, and entries are available to Shortcuts and Spotlight. LIFE PATTERNS Journal Insights compares your good days with your low ones across spending, tasks, focus, sleep, and steps. Plus a Year in Pixels. FROM YOUR DAY Pull photos, workouts, places, and your State of Mind into a journal entry with Apple's Journaling Suggestions. Optionally log moods to Health. AND Completion sounds and a confetti moment when the day is done. Two-column layouts on iPad, keyboard shortcuts, and a sidebar. Better support for the largest text sizes. In-app release notes. Dozens of fixes, including a lock screen that now covers every sheet. As always: everything stays encrypted on your device. No accounts, no ads, no trackers.

Ready for iOS 27, plus a round of bug fixes. BUGS AND FIXES Repeating tasks, events, and bills set to fire on Sunday plus other days could quietly skip the other days after the first week if your week starts on Monday. Every selected day now fires, every week, in every locale. Starting a Quick Add entry with an emoji, like a burger before "Lunch tomorrow at noon", could scramble the title. It now keeps exactly what you typed. PDF text recognition for scanned pages now runs entirely on its background worker, for smoother scrolling while a library indexes. Custom smart folders parse their rules more reliably. Scheduling a task from the timeline tray no longer logs a stray warning. The notifications permission prompt no longer appears the moment the app opens for the first time. DayCast now asks only when you set up something that needs a reminder. General stability and build cleanup throughout. UNDER THE HOOD Tested end to end on iOS 27. DayCast still supports iOS 18 and later. As always: everything stays encrypted on your device. No accounts, no ads, no trackers.

The biggest DayCast update yet. PLAN ON ONE TIMELINE Tasks and events finally share a view. Drag a task onto an hour to block out time, see a live now-line, and know how much of your day is genuinely free. REPEAT ANYTHING, ANY WAY Every 2 weeks on Tuesday and Thursday. The last Friday of the month. Every 3 months. The old four options are gone — build the pattern you actually need, for tasks, events, and bills alike. QUICK ADD ON EVERY IPHONE Type "Lunch with Sarah Friday at noon at Blue Bottle for 90 min" and DayCast fills in the rest. No Apple Intelligence required. NEVER LOSE A NOTE Version history saves every meaningful edit, so you can roll a note back after an accidental overwrite. KNOW WHAT'S SAFE TO SPEND A daily number that accounts for the bills still coming and the savings you're pacing toward. Plus a bill calendar for the month ahead, and a debt payoff planner that shows what one extra payment actually buys you. SEE WHERE IT GOES Every merchant ranked by what it actually costs you, with month-over-month trend. And budgets no longer have to be monthly — weekly, biweekly, quarterly, and yearly cycles all work now. YOUR YEAR, IN REVIEW A recap of your journal year, including which parts of your life track with your good days. SEARCH INSIDE EVERY PDF Full-text search across your whole library, with OCR for scanned pages. Tag documents, and pull every highlight out of one as shareable text. Also: task projects, event locations with maps, journal templates, optional Health context on entries, nested note folders, saved note filters, a note link map, tables and code blocks, and a long list of fixes and polish throughout. DayCast now requires iOS 18.

DayCast 1.7 is a big one — a new way to get things done, safer backups, and support for more iPhones. FOCUS TIMER Start a focus session right from any task. Pick 5–60 minutes, watch the countdown ring, pause and resume as needed. Time you focus is logged on the task next to your estimate, and your total focus time shows up in Task Insights. BACKUPS NOW INCLUDE YOUR ATTACHMENTS Backups now carry your photos, voice memos, handwriting, and receipts — not just your text. Restore on a new iPhone and everything comes back, exactly as you left it. Still encrypted, still yours. SUPPORT FOR MORE IPHONES DayCast now runs on iOS 17 and later, so more devices can join in. (Apple Intelligence features still require iOS 26.) PLUS 24 RELIABILITY FIXES, INCLUDING: • Widget taps now open the app straight to the right place • The Spending widget resets correctly on the 1st of the month and shows a live "updated" time • Multi-day events now appear on every day they span, not just the first • Reports and budgets handle mixed currencies correctly everywhere • Expense amounts from Shortcuts parse correctly for amounts like $1,050 • Streak Savior settings take effect immediately • Fixed rare cases where cancelling a new entry could leave data behind — or take data with it As always: everything stays on your device, encrypted by default.

This update is a big stability pass! Money • Budgets are now created in your own currency, and mixed-currency spending converts correctly everywhere: totals, day groups, refunds, and budget progress. • Fixed a layout issue where a budget's rollover switch overlapped the alert picker. • Spending screens are noticeably faster with large expense lists. AI • Your one free try of each AI feature is only counted when it actually works. Failed generations no longer use it up. Backups • Backups now include trashed notes' deletion dates, extra photos, and journal locations, so restores bring back exactly what you had. • Backing up no longer freezes the app while it encrypts. Plus dozens of smaller fixes across notes, journal, PDFs, widgets, and reminders.

You can now turn on Apple Wallet import straight from the Spending tab instead of digging through Settings. Thank you for your feedback and for using DayCast!

Apple Wallet purchases now import on their own instead of waiting for a manual sync. Repeating reminders keep firing instead of going quiet after the first one. Also fixed: notes could look blank after switching between light and dark mode, signatures could drop off a PDF, and a new note or expense could vanish if you started typing right away. New: a More from the studio section in Settings.

A fresh coat of glass. This update brings a full Liquid Glass design refresh across the app. Redesigned cards on the Today screen, now with a cleaner glass look that adapts to light and dark mode Glassy, more responsive buttons that subtly react when you press them A smaller, centered prompt card in Journal so your entries get more room Sharper edges, softer shadows, and better contrast in both light and dark mode No new permissions, no tracking, everything still stays on your device.

This update fixes a batch of reliability bugs. Apple Wallet import no longer misses transactions that settle days after the purchase, and hand picked pending charges are now flagged for review so you can confirm the final amount once it posts. Recurring tasks keep the right day of the month after you change their repeat rule. Deleting an event now also removes its Apple Calendar copy after restoring from a backup. Backup restores are safer, if a restore fails partway through your existing data is left untouched. You can now delete iCloud backups that haven't finished downloading.

DayCast 1.6 is a big update, packed with new features and over a hundred fixes and refinements. New in this version: - Undo delete: removing a task or event now shows an Undo button, so nothing is lost by accident - Link tasks to events and see the connection in both places - On This Day: revisit journal entries from past years, right at the top of your Journal - Streak freeze: miss a single day and your journal streak survives - New mood insights, including a 30 day mood strip and a mood by weekday chart - Choose your own budget alert threshold, from 50 to 90 percent - Price change badges show when a subscription charge went up or down - Smarter category merging in Spending, and note link suggestions as you type in Notes Fixes and improvements: - Repeating events created long ago no longer disappear from your calendar - Backups now restore fully on a new iPhone - More reliable saving in editors, plus better dark mode, accessibility, and performance across the app

This update is all about reliability: • Fixed PDF exports appearing blank when using Dark Mode • Marking a task complete from a notification now always saves • Wallet transaction imports recover correctly if a sync is interrupted • Fixed duplicate events in Apple Calendar after restoring a backup on a new device • Clearer warnings when changing or removing your backup password • Better alerts when iCloud backups can't run, so nothing skips silently • Faster weather lookups for journal entries Thanks for using DayCast!

DayCast 1.4 brings automatic spending import, a much bigger PDF toolkit, and new ways to capture notes and journal entries. SPENDING Import transactions straight from Apple Wallet, no manual entry needed. Pick transactions from Apple Card, Apple Cash, Apple Savings, or a supported bank, and DayCast logs them as expenses, entirely on-device. PDFS A major upgrade: new reading modes, text-to-speech, an outline view, on-device AI summaries, document scanning with OCR, and form filling. NOTES Rich text formatting, multiple photos per note, scan-straight-into-note, and table insertion. JOURNAL Multiple photos per entry, a map view of where you journaled, calendar browsing, inline images, support for multiple journals, and stronger AI-powered insights. FIXES PDF exports could render blank in Dark Mode, this is now fixed. Apple Wallet import is now more resilient if a save fails partway through, so transactions can no longer be silently lost.

DayCast 1.3 is a big update across every tab. JOURNAL - See your entries on a map and browse them in a monthly calendar - Keep separate journals, with multiple photos and inline images in any entry SPENDING - Auto-import transactions from Apple Wallet (Apple Card, Cash, Savings, and supported banks) - New Reports Hub with shareable recaps and a year-end tax report PDFS - Scan documents, mark up and sign, read pages aloud, fill forms, and ask on-device AI about any PDF NOTES - Scan straight into a note, add tables and nested folders, and attach multiple photos Plus smarter on-device AI throughout and lots of polish. Everything stays private and encrypted on your iPhone.
