A focus app for iPhone

One thing a day.
Done well.

Too many priorities? Dayflint asks one question each evening: if you only got one thing done tomorrow, what would it be? Then it helps you actually do it.

Free to start · No account · Your data stays on your iPhone

Most to-do apps help you list everything.
Dayflint helps you finish one thing.

How it works

A day with Dayflint

  1. 9:00 PM · The night before

    Pick tomorrow's one thing.

    One question, once a day. Choosing the night before means you wake up already knowing, with no list to wade through and no guilt about the rest.

    Dayflint's weekly plan, with one task for each day
  2. 9:00 AM · Morning

    Wake up knowing.

    A gentle nudge reminds you what today is for. The one thing sits front and centre, and anything extra waits quietly below it.

  3. 10:15 AM · Focus

    Hold to start. Phone face down.

    Press and hold to begin a 25, 50 or 90 minute session. Add soft brown noise or rain if it helps you settle in. Dayflint keeps time, and Flinty keeps you company.

    That's today's one thing.

    A quiet chime, a happy flame, and a dot on your week. Note how it felt, line up tomorrow, and get on with your day.

Streaks

Streaks that rest,
not reset.

Life happens. Miss a day and your streak rests instead of starting over. One rest day a week is on us, so a single slip never wipes out your progress.

Dayflint after a missed day: Yesterday slipped. It happens. Your streak is resting, not reset.

Everything it does

Small on purpose.
Thoughtful everywhere.

FAQ

Good questions.

Something else? Get in touch.

Why only one thing?

Because a long list makes everything feel equally urgent, and nothing gets finished. One clear priority is easier to start, easier to protect, and far more satisfying to finish. If you have time left over, Plus lets you add a few extras below it.

What happens if I miss a day?

Your streak rests instead of resetting. One rest day a week is built in, and the thing you missed carries over so you can relight it or pick something new.

Do I need an account?

No. There's nothing to sign up for. Open the app and pick your one thing.

Does Dayflint work offline?

Yes. Everything is stored on your iPhone, so it works anywhere. With Plus, changes sync through iCloud when you're back online.

How does the free trial work?

The annual plan starts with 7 days free. We'll remind you 2 days before it ends, and you can cancel anytime in your Apple ID settings before then and pay nothing. The monthly plan has no trial.

Is it on iPad or Android?

Dayflint is made for iPhone, running iOS 17 or later.

Tomorrow's one thing
