Palo - Daily Planner & Journal

About Palo - Daily Planner & Journal

**Palo** is a privacy-first daily life planner for iOS and Android. Everything stays on your device — no account, no analytics, no tracking of any kind. **What it does** Palo organizes your entire day in one place: tasks on a smart timeline, morning and evening ritual sequences, a private journal, notes, and a calendar that syncs your real meetings alongside your tasks so you see your whole day on one screen. **Its strongest features** *Automated routines.* Morning and night sequences run themselves — Palo auto-advances through each activity, voices the task name, and tells you what's next. Hands-free from start to finish. *Smart timeline.* Tasks are placed on a time-based home screen so you always know where you are in your day, not just what's on a list. *MIT Pinning.* Your Most Important Task sits front and center every morning so it never gets buried. *Day Templates.* Pre-built day structures that Palo applies automatically based on your goals and what's already on your calendar. *SmartFocus.* Distraction-free focus sessions tied to your actual tasks, not just a generic timer. *Streaks & Rituals.* Daily habit tracking built into the ritual system — morning reviews, evening wind-downs, and any pattern you want to build. *Private journal.* The AI companion (P) never reads your journal entries. Only numerical mood ratings are used. This is architectural, not a toggle. *Home screen widget.* Your next task visible without opening the app. *Voice input.* Capture tasks the moment they hit you via Siri (iOS) or Google Assistant (Android). Palo only receives the structured result — never your raw audio. *No account required.* Nothing to sign in to, nothing stored outside your device. **The core idea** Most planners make you manage your plan. Palo runs it for you — your day has a shape, your routines happen, and your private thoughts stay private.
