Daycore: Support

Last updated: August 23, 2026

Need help with Daycore? This page explains how the app works, what data it uses, what it does not use, and how to get support.

What Daycore is

Daycore is an iPhone app (iOS 18 or later) for keeping a daily record of your life in a retro terminal aesthetic.

Each calendar day is one Daily Record. You can move between days, browse your archive in Logs, and optionally unlock Daycore Pro for advanced themes, analysis, and archive tools.

Daycore does not require an account with us and does not use a custom backend for your journal.

How the app works

The daily loop

For each day, Daycore can hold up to five kinds of information:

Part	What it is	Required?
Environment	City/locality and daily weather summary	Automatic when Location is granted
Telemetry	Sleep, heart rate, HRV, weight, steps, distance, exercise, active energy	Automatic when Health is granted
System Status	Your energy, mood, focus, and stress (0–10)	You enter this
Memory Core	One short text memory (up to 280 characters)	You enter this
Pixel Log	One optional retro-style photo for the day	You capture this

The main screen shows the selected day. Swipe left or right to move to the previous or next day. Use LOGS to open your archive and SETTINGS to manage the app.

Record states

Each day shows a status banner:

RECORDING — today’s open day
RECORD CLOSED — a past day that is missing telemetry, system status, or memory
RECORD COMPLETE — a past day with finalized telemetry, system status, and memory all present

Pixel Log photos are optional and do not affect whether a day is marked complete.

What happens on closed days

Some data is provisional while a day is still open:
