What DayZen is
DayZen is an iOS time-blocking app that displays a day on a 24-hour radial clock. Tasks can include a time slot, duration, category, emoji, precise time, icon, and color-coded category. A task inbox captures to-dos, and recurring tasks are supported. Two-way calendar sync connects Google Calendar, Outlook, and Apple Calendar. iCloud sync keeps the app aligned between iPhone and iPad. Tapping a task opens Focus Mode with a closer clock view, timer, and swipe-to-complete action. Interactive home-screen widgets show the next task, while Pro adds advanced Home and Lock Screen widgets. The maker describes DayZen as built by and for people with ADHD. It works without an account and is local by default; schedules stay on the device, and the maker says it does not sell data, track location, or read calendar events. The free Starter plan is billed forever and allows 10 tasks. DayZen Pro is listed at $24.99 a month, with a note saying pay once and own it forever; Pro offers unlimited tasks and categories, priority support, and future updates.
